All I can suggest is running the WINE config tool. You could also try running it so that WINE is trying to simulate something like win 98. When I ran byond_setup in WINE a long time ago a few errors in wine did pop up but the setup still worked. Dream Seeker ran fine too, except that it crashed after awhile.
Is this Wine 20031016? I haven't gotten it nor the previous release to work under RedHat 9 yet. All I get is lovely segmentation faults everytime I try to run any of the Wine programs and configurators. This is with both the binary RPMs for RedHat 9 and with me building the binary RPMs from source RPMs and then installing.

In the past when running RedHat 8, I could get DreamSeeker working; however, the second that an image was shown in what I call the chat window, it crashed. I played around Dragon Warrior Online 2.0 Beta A-2 for a while, but would crash the second I or anyone else would say something due to the image being shown.

[edit]

What we really need is a version of BYOND written to work under X-Windows. I'd recommend QT or one of these other windowing toolkits. Then, I'd recommend that it be written so that it would compile under gcc. If this could be done, then Dan/Tom should be able to release a BYOND client for Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris, SCO (err...scratch that), and OS X. This would also allow them to make releases for non x86 architectures as well...note that I mentioned OS X in the operating system list.

I have just order Linux: Colledge edition (or something like that.), and i wanted to know basicly what it is in a nutshell and whether BYOND runs the same as it does on Windows 98.

So far all i know is, that you have to download a different BYOND installer.

It would be a great help if you could provide some info. for me before i install Linux.

Basically you get Dream Daemon, which functions normally. You also get a form of Dream Maker that lets you compile .dmbs. Both of these are text-based. You also get a sort of text mode Dream Seeker, but it is horrible for anything other than a graphicless chat program.

I ran into the same problem as you did when you ran RedHat 8.

Oops, noticed this was "BYOND Bugs" section! I'm terribly sorry for posting off topic! :(

Well, since there's already a topic going for this, I may as well post here as well...

HELP! I failed to install wine correctly, stupidly removed directories and files manually, and now I cannot uninstall/re-install Wine at all!

When "wine" is typed in terminal, it read:

<font face=system>wine: error while loading shared libraries: libwine.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
</font>

When I try to install Wine again from the source file, it does not work, and the RPM file reads "A newer version of Wine iis currently installed"

I am running RedHat 9.

I would be forever in your debt if you could assist me in getting WINE up! :(

When trying to run DreamDaemon, I received this error:

<font face=system>DreamMaker: error while loading shared libraries: libbyond.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
</font>

I'm so totally lost here folks,... -_-

It can't find the "libbyond.so" file, which is a library file that the Linux version of BYOND needs to run. There should be a library path option in the makefile or somewhere which you need to point to the directory that libbyond.so is in.

I gleaned all of that from a forum search - I've never actually run into that problem myself - so I hope it works. =)
