Wine configuration

Mr. X · 2007-06-04 20:37:57

I want to enable mouse grab in Wine, but I can't find the configuration file...

Can anybody help me?

I think you use winecfg and regedit to change wine's configuration settings. The physical files are in ~/.wine/ as .reg files.

I still can't find a way to enable "mouse grab"

What I have found till now is that many people refer to the config file which should be located in ~/.wine/ folder, but there's only dosdevices, drive_c, system.reg and user.reg in my case...

here's how the config file should look like:

WINE REGISTRY Version 2
;; All keys relative to \\Machine\\Software\\Wine\\Wine\\Config

;;
;; MS-DOS drives configuration
;;
;; Each section has the following format:
;; [Drive X]
;; "Path"="xxx" (Unix path for drive root)
;; "Type"="xxx" (supported types are 'floppy', 'hd', 'cdrom' and 'network')
;; "Label"="xxx" (drive label, at most 11 characters)
;; "Serial"="xxx" (serial number, 8 characters hexadecimal number)
;; "Filesystem"="xxx" (supported types are 'msdos'/'dos'/'fat', 'win95'/'vfat', 'unix')
;; This is the FS Wine is supposed to emulate on a certain
;; directory structure.
;; Recommended:
;; - "win95" for ext2fs, VFAT and FAT32
;; - "msdos" for FAT16 (ugly, upgrading to VFAT driver strongly recommended)
;; DON'T use "unix" unless you intend to port programs using Winelib !
;; "Device"="/dev/xx" (only if you want to allow raw device access)

wine does not ship a configuration file by default. You can edit ~/.wine/config and put your wine configuration there.
