Those caveats aside (not that they're easily pushed aside, but I did do the test), my results were that I was successfully able to run the trial version of Solitaire Master 3, but I had to install IE6 and support applications (as listed in the 'Lower Performance' install section of the AppDB listing for Steam). But further searching indicates that *.dxr files can be opened by the Shockwave player, which is available via winetricks, so there is hope on that front, as long as shockwave can successfully install and run on your likely ancient Wine.

So any advice as to how to overcome that is to some extent guesswork, expecially under the conditions you're working with (old Wine, old OS). A quick search indicates that *.dxr files are Adobe Director files, so I'd guess that gamebutler.exe has some spiffy opening animated sequence that I don't have available.
Solitaire Master seems to have come a fair distance in the intervening versions- I don't, for example, have a gamebutler.exe in my test installation, nor do I have any *.dxr files.

I am testing an older version of the application than what you have, and further mine is a trial version whereas you have the full application.
#EGAMES SOLITAIRE MASTER 3 UPGRADE#
So at this point, to upgrade to the current version of Wine, you'd have to compile it yourself, which may or may not be possible under Ubuntu 8, and is likely an overwhelming enterprise for a linux "dummy" under the best of conditions, which these are not.
#EGAMES SOLITAIRE MASTER 3 ARCHIVE#
The bad news in terms of Wine is that, since Hardy Heron (and Intrepid Ibex, version 8.10) are both outdated, there are no Wine packages for the current development version, and indeed no pre-compiled packages available for quite a long time now (the last I could find in the archive is 1.1.38, which is probably far better than whatever you have, but far less than the current 1.2-rc 6 released yesterday). Linux, Ubuntu, and especially Wine, have come a long way in two years.įurthermore, if you are using Ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron), that LTS (Long Term Support) release is now beyond its end of life (EOL)- LTS releases are for two years. The functionality of these two versions- and thus the functionality of Wine on these systems- is more than likely much different than on my system. Ubuntu 8.04 was released over two years ago Ubuntu 8.10 was released almost two years ago. You are running a much older version of Ubuntu than I am. For the exact version number of your Wine, open a terminal application and type wine -version and hit Enter to see the result and post that result here. Naturally the functionality of your version of wine is substantially different (and in most cases much reduced) than the functionality of mine. I know what version of Wine was in my repository when I installed LM 7 Gloria which was based on Ubuntu 9.04, and even that was old and outdated compared to the then-current development version so I expect that you may not even be running the last stable release, much less anything approaching the current version. You are running a much older version of Wine than I am.There are a number of differences between my test and your system. I am running the current version of Wine (1.2-rc5).
In an effort to help I downloaded and installed the trial version of Solitaire Master 3 (all I could find on eGames) on my system (Linux Mint 9, compatible with Ubuntu 10.04). I installed the version of wine that was available with the add/remove programs application. Publisher Macintosh Drop!
