Hello !

I've checked the winedb and this game should have worked without issues but I'm getting no sound (using ALSA) and cannot get a fullscreen (it says "Could not switch to fullscreen").

How can I fix it ?

Thanks
Maxim.

Could you run 'wine scream.exe' in your terminal? It might spit out something helpful. Regardless, the "Could not switch to full screen" message apparently happens to everyone, but usually it just runs normally afterwards. The sound issue, however, is new to me.

Sorry for the late reply...

Here is the output :

I must say that I have removed the buggy PulsAudio (I have a no idea why they put this buggy software in Ubuntu) and thus I've using ALSA.
