Continuum runs in Linux with WINE now thanks to Mine GO BOOM

The howto: http://wiki.minegoboom.com/index.php/Runni...nuum_under_Wine

 

Essentially, this is how it's done.

 

Get the WINE source code. Untar it. Open a terminal, enter the source directory.

 

Make a file called cont.patch. Put this in it:

 

diff --git a/dlls/kernel/process.c b/dlls/kernel/process.c
index 33f9ee1..d50cb7d 100644
--- a/dlls/kernel/process.c
+++ b/dlls/kernel/process.c
@@ -2460,6 +2464,7 @@ HANDLE WINAPI OpenProcess( DWORD access,
 OBJECT_ATTRIBUTES   attr;
 CLIENT_ID		   cid;

+if (access & PROCESS_VM_WRITE) return NULL;
 cid.UniqueProcess = (HANDLE)id;
 cid.UniqueThread = 0; /* FIXME ? */

 

Patch WINE with this command: cat cont.patch | patch -p1

 

Compile WINE.

 

Run the Continuum 0.38 installer with your custom WINE build. Install Continuum. Run Continuum. Watch as it just works.

Can anyone else say OMFG it's about time? I've waited years for this. This is so cool!

Funny, that thread didn't show up when I searched the forum for the keyword "linux"

 

Edit: That would be because it isn't on this forum. heh
