I am using fedora 3 and I have wine installed.I'm a total newbie and I want to use dvd decrypter running through wine.Now I installed the program and I can bring it up.Now there is a problem in that when I bring it up it shows no drives.I have hdc which is my cdrom and I have hdd which is a cd/dvd burner.Now from what I have read I have to make some kind of links to make them show under dvd decrypter so when I run it well it shows the drives like in windows.First I tried reading the wine site and well I was lost.I need some one to show me what I type in the terminal to make these links so I can use the program.I hope you understand what i'm trying to say. Thank You

As root, try the following:

ln /dev/hdd /dev/dvd

I have assumed that wine recognizes /dev/dvd as the DVD burner.

I did that and that did nothing for me.It told me it exist.When I launch dvd decrypter it still says no devices detected.

Use 'winecfg' and it'll bring up a config tool.

Under the 'Drives' tab add a new one. For the 'Path' set it to your mount point, ie /mnt/dvd. Set the 'Type' to 'CD-ROM' and under 'Show Advanced' set 'Serial' to your device, ie /dev/hdc.

I did all that but still comes up no devices detected.I read some where that I have to have a dosdevices directory inside my wine directory.Then in that need links to all my drives.Now if the dosdevices directory isn't there I know how to make it but I have no idea what to do to make these links they speak of or how to go about it.

Here is a person I guess trying to do the same thing but not really sure what I need to type. http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...highlight=wine

Hi, a have the same problem. When I start DVD Decrypter is says "No devices detected!". I tried what's suggested in this thread but it doesn't work...

Any suggestions ?

I was having similar issues, and running winecfg (not to be confused with winesetuptk) fixed the problem for me. I'm not sure which particular setting helped, but it added many things to my config file. In addition, I believe you have to mount the DVD before programs in Wine will detect it.

You must go into winecfg, and usually hitting autodetect will setup up your virtual drive and mount points.
