Confusing wine outputs
 

fixme:mci:MCI_LoadMciDriver Couldn't load driver for type SEQUENCER.
If you don't have a windows installation accessible from Wine,
you perhaps forgot to create a [mci] section in system.ini
err:dsound:DSOUND_MixOne underrun on sound buffer 0x4037bc10


fixme:dsound:DSOUND_MixOne problem with underrun detection (mixlen=1852 < primary_done=1856)


The numbers are different everytime..
Is there something that can be done to fix this?

The second one about an underrun detection is a bug/fixme in wine code, since I get those constantly. I think all it does is result in some choppy sound; there's nothing to do but wait until they fix it, or fix it for them if you know how :)

The one about MCI... Check your wine config file (should be in ~/.wine/config), and look for a couple lines under "DllOverrides" that say:

"mciavi.drv" = "native, builtin"
"mcianim.drv" = "native, builtin"

If they're not there, add them under "DllOverrides". If they are, then I do not know what to tell ya. It could be another bug within wine; usually the errors that say "fixme" are intended for the developers of wine, so if it's not causing any problems in apps you're running with wine, I wouldn't worry about it much.
