A Windows installation consists of many different parts.

Directory structure. Applications expect to find and/or
|
|
|
|
|
install things in specific predetermined locations. Most
|
|
|
|
|
of these directories are expected to exist. But unlike
|
|
|
|
|
Unix directory structures, most of these locations are
|
|
|
|
|
not hardcoded, and can be queried via the Windows API
|
|
|
|
|
and the registry. This places additional requirements on
|
|
|
|
|
a Wine installation.

System DLLs. In Windows, these usually reside in the
|
|
|
|
|
<filename>system</filename> (or
|
|
|
|
|
<filename>system32</filename>) directories. Some Windows
|
|
|
|
|
applications check for their existence in these
|
|
|
|
|
directories before attempting to load them. While Wine
|
|
|
|
|
is able to load its own internal DLLs
|
|
|
|
|
(<filename>.so</filename> files) when the application
|
|
|
|
|
asks for a DLL, Wine does not simulate the existence of
|
|
|
|
|
nonexisting files.

While the users are of course free to set up everything

themselves, the Wine team will make the automated Wine
|
|
|
|
|
installation script, <filename>tools/wineinstall</filename>,
|
|
|
|
|
do everything we find necessary to do; running the
|
|
|
|
|
conventional <command>configure && make depend && make && make
|
|
|
|
|
install</command> cycle is thus not recommended, unless
|
|
|
|
|
you know what you're doing. At the moment,
|
|
|
|
|
<filename>tools/wineinstall</filename> is able to create a
|
|
|
|
|
configuration file, install the registry, and create the
|
|
|
|
|
directory structure itself.

The default registry is in the file
|
|
|
|
|
<filename>winedefault.reg</filename>. It contains directory
|
|
|
|
|
paths, class IDs, and more; it must be installed before most
|
|
|
|
|
<filename>INSTALL.EXE</filename> or
|
|
|
|
|
<filename>SETUP.EXE</filename> applications will work. The
|
|
|
|
|
registry is covered in more detail in an earlier article.

Here's the fundamental layout that Windows applications and

installers expect. Without it, they seldom operate

|

correctly.

Wine emulates drives by placing their virtual drive roots to

user-configurable points in the Unix filesystem, so it's

your choice where <medialabel>C:</medialabel>'s root should

|
|
|
|
be (<filename>tools/wineinstall</filename> will even ask
|

you). If you choose, say, <filename>/var/wine</filename>, as
|
|
|
|
|
the root of your virtual drive <medialabel>C</medialabel>,
|
|
|
|
|
then you'd put this in your <filename>wine.conf</filename>:

With this configuration, what windows apps think of as

"c:\windows\system" would map to

|
|
|

<filename>/var/wine/windows/system</filename> in the UNIX

filesystem. Note that you need to specify
|
|

|

<literal>Filesystem=win95</literal>, NOT
|
|
|
|
|
<literal>Filesystem=unix</literal>, to make Wine simulate a
|

Windows-compatible (case-insensitive) filesystem, otherwise
|
|
|
|

most apps won't work.

The Wine team has determined that it is necessary to create
|
|
|
|
|
fake DLL files to trick many applications that check for
|
|
|
|
|
file existence to determine whether a particular feature
|
|
|
|
|
(such as Winsock and its TCP/IP networking) is available. If
|
|
|
|
|
this is a problem for you, you can create empty files in the
|
|
|
|
|
<filename>system</filename> directory to make the
|
|
|
|
|
application think it's there, and Wine's built-in DLL will
|
|
|
|
|
be loaded when the application actually asks for it.
|
|
|
|
|
(Unfortunately, <filename>tools/wineinstall</filename> does
|
|
|
|
|
not create such empty files itself.)
|
|
|
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
|
|
|
Applications sometimes also try to inspect the version
|
|
|
|
|
resources from the physical files (for example, to determine
|
|
|
|
|
the DirectX version). Empty files will not do in this case,
|
|
|
|
|
it is rather necessary to install files with complete
|
|
|
|
|
version resources. This problem is currently being worked
|
|
|
|
|
on. In the meantime, you may still need to grab some real
|
|
|
|
|
DLL files to fool these apps with.
|
|
|
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
|
|
|
And there are of course DLLs that wine does not currently
|
|
|
|
|
implement very well (or at all). If you do not have a real
|
|
|
|
|
Windows you can steal necessary DLLs from, you can always
|
|
|
|
|
get some from a DLL archive such as
|
|
|
|
|
<ulink url="http://solo.abac.com/dllarchive/">http://solo.abac.com/dllarchive/</ulink>.

A major goal of Wine is to allow users to run Windows programs
|
|
|
|
|
without having to install Windows on their machine. Wine
|
2000-12-13 22:52:37 +01:00
|
|
|
implements the functionality of the main DLLs usually
|
2000-08-08 03:24:00 +02:00
|
|
|
provided with Windows. Therefore, once Wine is finished, you
|
|
|
|
|
will not need to have windows installed to use Wine.

Because Wine is not yet complete, some programs will work
|
2000-12-13 22:52:37 +01:00
|
|
|
better with native Windows DLLs than with Wine's
|
2000-08-08 03:24:00 +02:00
|
|
|
replacements. Wine has been designed to make this possible.
|
|
|
|
|
Here are some tips by Juergen Schmied (and others) on how to
|
|
|
|
|
proceed. This assumes that your
|
|
|
|
|
<filename>C:\windows</filename> directory in the configuration
|
|
|
|
|
file does not point to a native Windows installation but is in
|
|
|
|
|
a separate Unix file system. (For instance, <quote>C:\windows</quote> is
|
|
|
|
|
really subdirectory <quote>windows</quote> located in
|
|
|
|
|
<quote>/home/ego/wine/drives/c</quote>).

Linux is able to access DOS and Windows file systems using
|
|
|
|
|
either the FAT (older 8.3 DOS filesystems) or VFAT (newer
|
|
|
|
|
Windows 95 or later long filename filesystems) modules.
|
|
|
|
|
Mounted FAT or VFAT filesystems provide the primary means
|
|
|
|
|
for which existing applications and their data are accessed
|
|
|
|
|
through Wine for dual boot (Linux + Windows) systems.
|
|
|

|

|
|

Wine maps mounted FAT filesystems, such as
|
|
|
|
|
<filename>/c</filename>, to driver letters, such as
|
|
|
|
|
<quote>c:</quote>, as indicated by the
|
|
|
|
|
<filename>wine.conf</filename> file. The following excerpt
|
|
|
|
|
from a <filename>wine.conf</filename> file does this:

<para>
|

Although VFAT filesystems are preferable to FAT filesystems
|
|
|
|
|
for their long filename support the term <quote>FAT</quote>
|
|
|
|
|
will be used throughout the remainder of this document to
|
|
|
|
|
refer to FAT filesystems and their derivatives. Also,
|
|
|
|
|
<quote>/c</quote> will be used as the FAT mount point in
|
|
|
|
|
examples throughout this document.

Most modern Linux distributions either detect or allow
|
2000-12-13 22:52:37 +01:00
|
|
|
existing FAT file systems to be configured so that they can be
|
2000-08-08 03:24:00 +02:00
|
|
|
mounted, in a location such as <filename>/c</filename>,
|
|
|
|
|
either persistently (on bootup) or on an as needed basis. In
|
|
|
|
|
either case, by default, the permissions will probably be
|
2000-12-13 22:52:37 +01:00
|
|
|
configured so that they look like:

<title>Running Wine as root</title>

<para>
|
|

|
|
Running Wine as root is the easiest and most thorough way of giving
|
|
|
|
|
applications that Wine runs unrestricted access to FAT files systems.
|
|
|
|
|
Running wine as root also allows applications to do things unrelated
|
|
|
|
|
to FAT filesystems, such as listening to ports that are less than
|
|
|
|
|
1024. Running Wine as root is dangerous since there is no limit to
|
|
|
|
|
what the application can do to the system.

<title>Mounting FAT filesystems</title>
|
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
|
|
|
The FAT filesystem can be mounted with permissions less restrictive
|
|
|
|
|
than the default. This can be done by either changing the user that
|
|
|
|
|
mounts the FAT filesystem or by explicitly changing the permissions
|
|
|
|
|
that the FAT filesystem is mounted with. The permissions are
|
|
|
|
|
inherited from the process that mounts the FAT filesystem. Since the
|
|
|
|
|
process that mounts the FAT filesystem is usually a startup script
|
|
|
|
|
running as root the FAT filesystem inherits root's permissions. This
|
|
|
|
|
results in the files on the FAT filesystem having permissions similar
|
|
|
|
|
to files created by root. For example:
|
|
|
|
|

which matches the owner, group and permissions of files seen

on the FAT filesystem except for the missing 'x's. The
|
|
|
|
|
permissions on the FAT filesystem can be changed by changing
|
|
|
|
|
root's umask (unset permissions bits). For example:

Mounting the FAT filesystem with a umask of
|
|
|
|
|
<literal>000</literal> gives all users complete control over
|
|
|
|
|
it. Explicitly specifying the permissions of the FAT
|
|
|
|
|
filesystem when it is mounted provides additional control.
|
|
|
|
|
There are three mount options that are relevant to FAT
|
|
|
|
|
permissions: <literal>uid</literal>, <literal>gid</literal>
|
|
|
|
|
and <literal>umask</literal>. They can each be specified
|
|
|
|
|
when the filesystem is manually mounted. For example:
|
|
|
|
|
</para>
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
</screen>
|
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
|
|
|
which gives "sle" complete control over
|
|
|
|
|
<filename>/c</filename>. The options listed above can be
|
|
|
|
|
made permanent by adding them to the
|
|
|
|
|
<filename>/etc/fstab</filename> file:
|
|
|
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|

<screen>

</screen>
|
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
|
|
|
Note that the umask of <literal>002</literal> is common in
|
|
|
|
|
the user private group file permission scheme. On FAT file
|
|
|
|
|
systems this umask assures that all files are fully
|
|
|
|
|
accessible by all users in the specified group
|
|
|
|
|
(<literal>gid</literal>).

<title>Shadowing FAT filesystems</title>
|
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
|
|
|
Shadowing provides a finer granularity of control. Parts of
|
|
|
|
|
the original FAT filesystem can be copied so that the
|
|
|
|
|
application can safely work with those copied parts while
|
2000-12-13 22:52:37 +01:00
|
|
|
the application continues to directly read the remaining
|
2000-08-08 03:24:00 +02:00
|
|
|
parts. This is done with symbolic links. For example,
|
|
|
|
|
consider a system where an application named
|
|
|
|
|
<application>AnApp</application> must be able to read and
|
|
|
|
|
write to the <filename>c:\windows</filename> and
|
|
|
|
|
<filename>c:\AnApp</filename> directories as well as have
|
|
|
|
|
read access to the entire FAT filesystem. On this system
|
|
|
|
|
the FAT filesystem has default permissions which should not
|
|
|
|
|
be changed for security reasons or can not be changed due to
|
|
|
|
|
lack of root access. On this system a shadow directory
|
|
|
|
|
might be set up in the following manner:
|
|
|
|
|
</para>
|
|
|

<prompt>/c_shadow></prompt><userinput>ln -s /c_/* .</userinput>
|
|

<prompt>/c_shadow></prompt><userinput>rm windows AnApp</userinput>
|

<prompt>/c_shadow></prompt><userinput>cp -R /c_/{windows,AnApp} .</userinput>
|

|
|
|
|
|
</screen>
|
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
|
|
|
The above gives everyone complete read and write access to
|
|
|
|
|
the <filename>windows</filename> and
|
|
|
|
|
<filename>AnApp</filename> directories while only root has

write access to all other directories.

Now that I have said that. ASPI is a direct link to SCSI devices from
|
|
|
|
|
windows programs. ASPI just forwards the SCSI commands that programs send
|
|
|
|
|
to it to the SCSI bus.

If you use the wrong SCSI device in your setup file, you can send
|
2000-08-08 03:24:00 +02:00
|
|
|
completely bogus commands to the wrong device - An example would be
|
|
|
|
|
formatting your hard drives (assuming the device gave you permission -
|
|
|
|
|
if you're running as root, all bets are off).

The scanner software needs to use the "Adaptec"
|
|
|
|
|
compatible drivers (ASPI). At least with Mustek, they
|
|
|
|
|
allow you the choice of using the builtin card or the
|
|
|
|
|
"Adaptec (AHA)" compatible drivers. This will not work
|
|
|
|
|
any other way. Software that accesses the scanner via a
|
|
|
|
|
DOS ASPI driver (e.g. ASPI2DOS) is supported, too. [AM]

You probably need a real windows install of the software

to set the LUN's/SCSI id's up correctly. I'm not exactly

sure.

Your SCSI card must be supported under linux. This will
|
|
|
|
|
not work with an unknown SCSI card. Even for cheap'n

This seems to be not required any more for newer (2.2.x) kernels:
|
|
|
|
|
Linux by default uses smaller SCSI buffers than Windows.
|
2000-08-08 03:24:00 +02:00
|
|
|
There is a kernel build define <literal>SG_BIG_BUFF</literal> (in
|
|
|
|
|
<filename>sg.h</filename>) that is by default set too
|
|
|
|
|
low. The SANE project recommends
|
|
|
|
|
<literal>130560</literal> and this seems to work just
|
|
|
|
|
fine. This does require a kernel rebuild.

I would recommend making the scanner device writable by

a group. I made a group called

<literal>scanner</literal> and added myself to it.

Running as root increases your risk of sending bad SCSI

commands to the wrong device. With a regular user, you

are better protected.

For Win32 software (WNASPI32), Wine has auto-detection in place.
|
|
|
|
|
For Win16 software (WINASPI), you need to add a SCSI device entry

|
|
|
for your particular scanner to wine.conf. The format is
|
|
|
|
|
<literal>[scsi cCtTdD]</literal> where
