An update on my attempts to fly again...
Trying to install the newer MS Flight Simulator X resulted in a
lockup when it asked for DVD disk 2. I had to eject the DVD tray with a
wine eject command in a second window, and it would never recognize that
disk 2 was inserted. Multiple tries got me no further, though it had
installed a lot of files from disk 1.
So I backed up a bit and dug out my old copy of FS98. It was
contained wholly on one CD, which did install just fine. So far, so
good.
When I then tried to run it from the Wine menu, it would start up
fine, with the engine running, and responding to controls. However,
when I taxied very far or tried to take off, wine would crash. When I
ran it from a terminal window where I could watch, with:
env WINEPREFIX="/home/gerry/.wine" wine "C:\Program Files
\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator\FltSim98.exe"
I got this as it loaded:
fixme:spoolsv:serv_main (0 (nil))
fixme:ntdll:RtlNtStatusToDosErrorNoTeb no mapping for 8000000a
fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),0,0x33d8e0,0x00000000),
stub!
and this when it crashed:
Segmentation fault
Anybody got any ideas on how to proceed? Is anybody else flying it?
I'm running Ubuntu 7.10 on an Intel box, without a Winders partition
any more.
Thanks,
Gerry
