I am new to Wine and really struggling. I'm trying to get DVD Shrink and DVD
Decrypter running on my Kubuntu 5.04. My system is current. I have a 2.8Mhz
machine with 1Gb memory and lots of space on my 160Gb hard drive. I have a
Plextor DVD+-RW and an HP CD-RW. They are /dev/hdc and /dev/hdd respectively.
Here is my /fstab file:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump>
<pass>
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/hda1 / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1
/dev/hda5 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/hdc /media/cdrom0 auto ro,user,noauto 0 0
/dev/hdd /media/cdrom1 auto ro,user,noauto 0 0
/dev/sda /media/usb0 auto rw,user,noauto 0 0
I had an older version of wine and used winetools to try the install and set
up. I had a wineserver running and got DVD Shrink installed according to the
Ubuntu How To, but DVD Shrink could not see any DVD devices. The drop down
list was empty when I tried to do an “open disc” action. I then cleaned out
all the wine and winetools I had installed and got the latest version from
Wine-HQ via synaptic (the 725 version). I used winecfg and it found all my
devices when I did autodetect. It shows them in winecfg just fine. The DVD
device is labeled “D: /media/cdrom0.” There is a symlink
in /dosdevices/d: for /media/cdrom0 which is the mount point for my DVD+-RW.
It is named “cdrom0” and points to /media/cdrom0. I installed DVD Shrink
again and it seemed to go in just fine, there is a registry entry for it.
However, still no devices in the drop down list when I do "open disc."
Any help would be much appreciated.
