Development |
Testing for Continuum-Wine 0.2 is now open. You are able to download the latest development version. I hope that I have increased the portability of this version as much as I think I have.
It now runs with Ubuntu 6.06, and should be compatible with any other Linux system. Just "extract here" and start the shell script
in the Continuum-Wine folder. Per the previous instructions, it's not a good idea to run this from a command prompt because of the
environment you would be trying to run it in.
The the only real problem that I have had with running this is the screen depth problems. As with the previous version, make
certain you are running continuum in the same screen depth your Xwindows session is running in. If you are running Continuum
in 16 bit and your Xwin session is 24 bit your are going to have terrible frame rates.
While testing on Ubuntu I noticed there is no way to change the screen depth using "Screen Resolution" so the change will have
to be made manually to run in 16 bit mode (optimal for frame rate.)
› To change the screen depth in Ubuntu, console window enter:
| sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
# Find the line...
DefaultDepth 24
# ...and change it to
DefaultDepth 16
# Optionally add 1280x1024 screen resolution
SubSection "Display"
Depth 16
Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "720x400" "640x480"
# Restart X by pressing Ctrl + Alt + Backspace |
