[SOLVED] wine. can't change drive C mapping

hi! i use winecfg to change the mapping of the C drive, but i realized that i cant change it because, if i change it with winecfg, when i close winecfg and open it again, it revert all my mappings to the defaults:
C -> /mnt/cdrom
D -> /mnt/cdrom
when i start winecfg give me some errors:
[aleyscha@aleyscha ~]$ winecfg
Warning: the specified Windows directory L"c:\\windows" is not accessible.
Warning: the specified System directory L"c:\\windows\\system32" is not accessible.
Warning: could not find DOS drive for current working directory '/home/aleyscha', starting in the Windows directory.

Warning: the specified Windows directory L"c:\\windows" is not accessible.
Warning: the specified System directory L"c:\\windows\\system32" is not accessible.

when i start a game:
[aleyscha@aleyscha ~]$ wine "/sda1/bin/drive_c/Program Files/FlatOut2/FlatOut2.exe"
Warning: the specified Windows directory L"c:\\windows" is not accessible.
Warning: the specified System directory L"c:\\windows\\system32" is not accessible.

wine: cannot find '/sda1/bin/drive_c/Program Files/FlatOut2/FlatOut2.exe'
[aleyscha@aleyscha ~]$
so i cant change my mappings :S i try, i put a "config" file in my ~/.wine with:
[Drive C]
"Path" = "/sda1/bin/drive_c"
"Type" = "hd"
"Label" = "Drive_C"
"Filesystem" = "win95"
[Drive D]
"Path" = "/mnt/cdrom"
"Type" = "cdrom"
"Label" = "CD-Rom"
"Filesystem" = "win95"
; make sure that device is correct and has proper permissions !
"Device" = "/dev/cdrom"
[Drive E]
"Path" = "/downloads/New"
"Type" = "hd"
"Label" = "Downloads"
"Filesystem" = "win95"
with no sucess... i dont know how everybody plays so easy with wine... the frustration here is killing me softly :'(

    AwOken icons
    Hello,
    I am currently using the AwOken icon set, which I downloaded on deviantart.com.
    So... I'd like the typical folders
    Pictures
    Videos
    Music
    Documents
    etc.
    to use the corresponding icons from, well, acutally any icon set I am using. But when I right-click on any folder, I can't change the Icon (second tab). Am I doing it wrong or is that a bug?
    edit
    So I tested it with a lot of other default XFCE themes and themes from the AUR (Greybird, Albatross and so forth). I can't change any icon. That's too bad, I have no clue whatsoever what the problem is, I was hoping I could change the bookmarks' icons in Thunar's sidebar as well.

    You can also use a bash alias.
    As an example:
    alias supac='sudo pacman'
    You would place the above in the bashrc of your profile
    gedit /home/YOURUSERNAME/.bashrc
    Then to use it right away
    source /home/YOURUSERNAME/.bashrc
    Otherwise you can just logout then back in.
    Then using the example you could just do
    supac -Syy
    supac -Syu
    You just use supac in place of sudo pacman (the rest stays the same). You can use a different alias though. It doesnt have to be supac.
    P.s. Glad the lib32-nvidia-utils fixed your issue. I had the same problem when i first started with arch so i assumed that was the issue.

  • How do I change the default map to one that works. Apple maps nearly killed me today in Leicester as it tried to take me down 2 pedestrian areas, 1 no entry and told me to do a u turn about 6 times at no u turn junctions.

    Need to change default map on iphone. The default maps app is dangerous - it wanted to take me down pedestrian areas and through no entries whilst trying to navigate in Leicester. It needs to be removed from my phone as it is a hazard. I clicked on a link in an email and the maps app was opened and so I used it to navigate. Big mistake. This app is a serious hazard!

    I don't really want to get into a long debate here, but just to put in some background info. I travel a lot in the uk and have done for many years. For the last couple of years I have used either Nav free or waze as sat nav maps on my iphone. Whilst there has been some errors, they have been useable - and of course you have to use your common sense whilst using them.
    On this occasion someone emailed an address to me in Leicester. I wanted to drive from on point in Leicester to this address that has been emailed to me. I clicked on the address in the email and it defaulted to the apple maps and plotted a route. It was about 1 mile away and told me it would take about 8 mins.
    This was the worse journey I have experienced with a 'sat nav' - it tried to take me through 2 pedestrian areas and 1 no entry in that short journey. Clearly I didn't go I. The pedestrian areas or turn into the one way. However, the apple. Aps persisted to try and make me take these route, and I. The process kept urging me to take a u turn where it was clearly sign posted that it was illegal to do so.
    In the end, I pulled over and switched to Waze - it directed me straight to my destination without any errors.
    The point is, I am not talking about a mistake in the middle of no where. This is a major city in the UK - and fairly central ie near the city centre.
    Generally I love Apple products and don't knock them as a company.
    The original question was genuine- can I change the default mapping app so that I don't end up using the apple maps app again. It was a disaster like nothing I have seen before.
    I now know that the answer is no.
    Apple clearly need to sort this out.

  • How can I change the BlackBerry Link Network Drive mapping from Z: to something else?

    Hello,
    I generally have a mapping to my NFS server on Z:, and my iTunes library has a relative path to Z: for all of my music - the fact that Link is automatically picking Z: as my network sync target for my device does not work for me to sync music, or anything really. I can't figure out how to change this value to something else.
    I found the registry key: \HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Research In Motion\Device Manager\Device Settings\<DEVICENAME>\VolumeMapping with a default blank REG_SZ - can I use this key at all to manually change drive mappings for my device? If so, what is the key/value pair I need and will this mess up any assumptions taken inside the Link software for synching?
    ... Also, I have a Feature Enhancement Request to go along with this issue: Add a "Change drive map letter" button beside the "Turn on wireless connections to my computer" button in Link, and add the same option in the context menu to the 'Device Manager' for the mapping (which currently just says 'Explore').
    Thanks for the help,
     - Jeff

    I do not know a lot about this subject but since Device Manager is not a Device and the BlackBerry Phone is not recognized as a Device in Disk management unless Mass Storage is turned ON it looks as if by design you cannot change the Drive Letter.
    Also if Mass Storage is turned On in the Phone Settings File Manager and BB link will not work but the BB Phone will then be recognized as a Device in Disk Management and the Drive Letter can be changed, this has no effect on the Drive Letters for Device Manager.
    Normally to change the Drive Letter and Paths of a Device once the Device is plugged you would go to Administrative Tools, Computer Management, Disk Management, right click the Device and choose "Change Drive Letter and Paths"
    Changing the Registry or Uninstalling Device Manager but keeping BB Link or looking for a Utility that can change the Drive Letter such as the one that many XP users had called TweakUI (only worked in XP) or changing the Drive Letter for your Network may be the only way.

  • Locked Hard Drive / Can't Change Privileges or Permissions!

    My non-bootup internal hard drive (a RAID array) is locked. I don't know how it happened for sure, but I can't view any of my files or change any of the disk's privileges or permissions.
    Disk utility can't un-mount the disk, but says in the "Disk Check" that everything is okay. The option to repair permissions in Disk Utility is grayed out because OS X is not installed on this volume.
    I have tried using terminal to CHOWN and CHMOD the volume, but for both commands it says "Operation not permitted." When I CMD-Click the mounted drive, this appears in the info pane:
    Sharing & Permissions:
    Name Privilege
    (Me) Custom
    admin Custom
    (Me) Custom
    admin Custom
    everyone Custom
    I can't change any of the "custom" settings, whether I unlock the padlock or not. All I can change is "Ignore ownership," which does nothing to help...
    I already archived my OS and re-installed 10.5, then upgraded to 10.5.7 and still no luck. I'M TOTALLY STUMPED! Any ideas?

    Okay, it looks like I've solved the problem. After LOTS of searching, I found a discussion that led to the solution... I first ran this command in terminal:
    ls -alO /Volumes
    This command revealed that the "user immutable flag" was set (the text "uchg" appeared with the problematic drive) and permissions looked odd. The following commands fixed both problems:
    chflags nouchg '/Volumes/<drive name>'
    sudo chmod 1775 '/Volumes/<drive name>'

  • How can I change the source file so it is direct from external hard drive?

    I am trying to make a movie on imovie of a snowboarding trip that I went on, there is around 80 to 100 gig of mp4 movies that will not fit on my computer that I have stored on my external harddrive. I had the movie half finished then found I could do no more as I had no space left in my mac. I had to delete everything and start again but I'm not doing this until I can find a way of changing the source file so I can take them direct from my external hard drive as to not use up all my computers available space. I have moved imovie to my external hard drive but it still tries to read from a movie file on my mac, how can I change that so it will read from a source file on my external hard drive, is it possible?? Can someone help me??

    Hi Bengt, Thanks for your input, much appreciated.
    I have a WD 1TIG hard drive and are using usb connection, is it possible to use fire wire with these? I have had trouble with a lot of the videos I Imported, once they downloaded the file in the viewer window showed up blank and when I mouse over them it places a picture of another file in the window and wont drag and drop into the movie window, like their corrupted or something? Had to delete just about all of them and start again. Also is it possible to select a bunch of videos in the viewer window as to change the dates to the correct dates? All I have been able to do is "select all" which is no help.

  • How can I change the default  driver to OracleXADataSource in JDeveloper

    Hello,
    How can I change the default oracle driver: oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver to oracle.jdbc.xa.client.OracleXADataSource in JDeveloper Studio Edition Version 11.1.1.0.2, Build JDEVADF_MAIN.BOXER_GENERIC_090328.0229.5205.
    If I modify the file connections.xml from jdeveloper\system\system11.1.1.0.31.52.05\o.jdevimpl.rescat2\connections in the sense that I change the driver class, then in JDeveloper when I test my connection I have this problem: Test failed: oracle.jdbc.xa.client.OracleXADataSource cannot be cast to java.sql.Driver
    Why do I need this XA version of the oracle driver? Well I tried, from a book to reproduce the model of an application: entities, stateless and stateful session beans, mdb, web services and a client to test one part of the model.
    And because of the JMS server I need an XA driver.
    I deployed to the integrated wls 10.3 and when I test my client, if I use the default driver for the connection the an error message appears tell me either to emulate two-phase commit or to use XA driver.
    My application works very well, if I configured in the console of the integrated wls 10.3 a datasource with the same name as my ide/application connection that has for the Driver Class Name: oracle.jdbc.xa.client.OracleXADataSource in the Connection Pool tab.
    Thank you.

    Open DIsk Utility and in the toolbar select Disk Image. The file selector will open and you'll have to do three things: 1) just as with any file, name it and point the file selector to where you want it to be saved, 2) near the bottom you'll see name - type iWork 2013 and 3) below that select the image size. Click on size, choose custom and type 1500 MB then click on the Create button.
    Some time will pass and then you'll see an external disk pop up on your desktop and/or the Finder window sidebar. Drag the three programs into it and eject it like any other external disk. Now delete the programs from your applications window.
    Where ever it was you pointed the file selector to you'll see the file you created. Double click on it and the disk image will mount again.
