Movies play fine in my browser (<a href="http://galeon.sourceforge.net/">Galeon</a>), and the independant player works great as well. The only installation issue I had was with the QuickTime 5 installer; <a href="http://www.enlightenment.org/">Enlightenment</a> maps the full-screen override-redirect <i>above</i> the setup window, with no real way to raise it. The solution? Temporarily allow WINE to manage all it's windows, instead of deferring non-full-screen windows to the window manager. You can do this by commenting out the line that says <code>"Managed" = "Y"</code> in your Crossover WINE configuration file (usually <code>$HOME/crossover/dotwine/config</code>). Incidentally, this same fix also works for cranky Windows installers in standard WINE. +</p> + |
