Summary: Dreamfall: The Longest Journey 2 fails to start
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.27.
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-directx-d3d
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

the game installs fine (of course with the usual "fixme" warnings)
(see "dreamfall.installation.log" attachment)

I have to place all installation files in one folder. I've tried the below with
the original dreamfall.exe and with a "no-cd" modified one (that some suggested).

First I choose not to install the included DirectX9 update.

when I launch the executable like this
$ wine dreamfall.exe
or
$ wine explorer /desktop=DreamFall,1024x768 dreamfall.exe
I get the following:
(see "dreamfall.nodx9.log" attachment)

The missing "d3dx9_27.dll" dll is provided by the included directx9 update.
After installing that and I launch the game, I get the following error message:
(see "dreamfall.withdx9.log" attachment)

while the game pops-up a little window with the following message:
"Failed to initialize Direct3D. Aborting."

I'm testing this on a NV28 (GeForce TI 4200 Go) using the 9631 proprietary
nvidia drivers which are in working order. I use a fresh wine directory and I
compiled the 0.9.27 myself. Otherwise wine works fine (for what I normally use
it for). I can even run 3DMark2001SE (to a certain extend)

In winecfg, I use "windows 2000"
