 |
|
When I try to run a program through wine I get these errors
"direct3d initialization has failed"
"Direct3d initializing failed"
"Failed to initialize Direct4D. Make sure you have at least DirectX 9.0c installed, have drivers for your graphics card and have not disabled 3D acceleration in display settings. InitializeEn
gineGraphics failed"
I've tried many different prefixes as well as wine trick configurations(specifically to get directx and c++ to work), but nothing seems to work. Looking online among other forums the answer seems to be largely dependent upon the distro and involves installing certain packages, and I don't know the Gentoo equivalents. Any help?

Just above the directx errors is this error:
| Code: | wine: Read access denied for device L"\\??\\Z:\\", FS volume label and serial
are not available |
Check the permissions for the .wine folder and/or try a new prefix. |

| My wine folders have the correct permissions, and I've tried a lot of different prefix/winetricks combinations. I think I just don't have a necessary package installed. |
