Running Dolphin with Wine? - Schwimmer - 02-13-2011
Hey guys. I want to run Dolphin on Linux, and I tried using a Linux build but I was forced to use OpenGL, which decreased my speed by at least 20% (which is unfortunately enough for me to run a game below 100% with my specs). Is it possible to run Dolphin with WIne? If so, how? I managed to run other programs with Wine, but Dolphin just closes after I try to load it.
I'm talking about svn 7120 here, by Xtreme2damaX.

Wine is going to be slower probably.

And yet, can you help me figuring out why Dolphin won't run? I like playing better when I have direct access to the configuration files and when I at least have the option of using Direct3D plugin.

Dolphin depends on some fancy bluetooth module which doesn't come with Wine and also can't be used under Wine, so Dolphin always fails when ran under Dolphin right now. No way to fix it, unless you make Dolphin load that bt module dynamically (requires modifying the source code).
