Dear fellow wine users,
I have some questions.
1)
First of all I would like to know if there is a message archive for the
older messages and where can I find it.
2)
Another question is about wine and xserver stability. Every time when I run
MSWORD97 on the latest wine or on the codeweavers wine-1.0-preview3 and I
load a Document with more than one page and I scroll trough the document my
hole xserver crashes. On my pc with nvidia card this could be solved by
replacing the nvidia drivers by the original xfree nvidia drivers. But then
I tried to access my computer via remote display from a pc with a ati (rage
128) graphics card and the xserver crashed again. Both pc's are using
xfree4.02 and the server was running codewaevers wine.
The problem is that I don't have another driver for the pc with the ati
graphics card.
3)
When I tried to use the lastest cvs wine the I could't use wine via remote
display and I got the following messages:
X Error of failed request: XF86VidModeExtensionDisabled
Major opcode of failed request: 134 (XFree86-VidModeExtension)
Minor opcode of failed request: 14 (XF86VidModeSetClientVersion)
Serial number of failed request: 181
Current serial number in output stream: 182
The xserver is running on the pc with ati graphics card and the option not
to load dga extension might be enabled or disabled, both give the same
result.
I really don't know which other option is for enabling the
VidModeExtension, so any help is greatly appcriciated.
4)
Another question is about using codeweavers wine and MSOffice 97. When I
try to load more than one program from MSOffice the second program crashes
immediately at loading the second program. Running only one program works
fine.
If have also tried to use Office 2000 and running more than one program is
possible too, but when I try to load or to save a document it always
complains that this is not possible (I have forgotten the exact error
message).
My problem is that for both office 2000 and office 97 it seems not to be
possible to run them with wine but I really would like to run at least one
of them.
Any help is greatly appriciated, thanks in advance,
Bernd
