fedora 8 wine 1.1.9 cdrom path not detected as cdrom

[kyuso]

I've been running Tomb Raider 2 without problems in Fedora 8 using wine 1.1.5 and older without problems.

After upgrade to wine 1.1.9, the game no longer detects that the cdrom is mounted. I tested several other games and the same problem.

What I do is run winecfg and add a drive as a path to a cdrom directory, and use 'advanced' button to set the drive as CD-ROM. This always worked, but I believe sometime after the upgrade, the games keep asking to put a cdrom in the drive.

Has wine 1.1.9 changed to no longer allow directories as cdrom? Or is there something wrong with my system? I tried cleaning out ~/.wine but that didn't help.

Ok, after checking around, it is confirmed that wine, starting with version 1.1.9, no longer uses winecfg's advanced drive setting to override the drive types.

Oh well, no more windows games for me. Not worth the hassle of taking out my cdrom from next room shelf.
