noob problems with winex

(1/3) > >>

Siplus:
i already had wine, and i found this page that explained how to play diablo2 in linux:
http://balgo.ath.cx/diablo/index2.html
well, after i downloaded winex (or at least it said it was going to download winex, but as it dled each file, i only saw wine) and ran the 3 commands as shown on the site (which took a very long time) i editited the config file for the cdrom, and mounted my c drive to /home/win98. when i tried to run starcraft, i got only this:

[siplus@Siplus Starcraft]$ wine starcraft.exe
wine: error while loading shared libraries: libntdll.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

i know that site was made for playing diablo in linux, but i figured that it would be the same w/ starcraft...

do i need to install it in linux? if i do, that wouldn't be very good...i only have 2gb left on my ext3 partition   :(  , or do i have to configure it doing more stuff?

Master of Reality:
yes.. you must install starcraft first.
do:
cd /mnt/cdrom
wine setup.exe

then intsall it, then go to /path/to/installed/starcraft
then run wine starcraft.exe

Siplus:
this is what i did/got:

[siplus@Siplus siplus]$ cd /mnt/cdrom
[siplus@Siplus cdrom]$ ls
autorun.inf  directx5  help  install.exe  isp  sc.ico  setup.exe  smackw32.dll
[siplus@Siplus cdrom]$ wine setup.exe
wine: error while loading shared libraries: libntdll.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[siplus@Siplus cdrom]$

what can i do to run the setup? do i have a bad version of wine/winex maybe?

voidmain:
Just install it right over the old StarCraft which should show up as "C:/Program Files/Starcraft" (the default). It will just overwrite the StarCraft on your Windows partition but it should still run fine in Windows because it will not mess with your Windows registry. Therefore it should not take up any more space (assuming you already have it installed on the Windows side of the house).

voidmain:
Download/install the latest version of WineX from CVS. I *know* that works perfectly for StarCraft.
