HOWTO: IPX Multiplayer
To get ipx network support, IPX will have to be enabled in the kernel, and you need some userspace utilities, usually called ipx-utils; and IPX must be started (there should be an initscript).

 *ubuntu users can use the commands:

sudo apt-get install ipx; sudo modprobe ipx; sudo ipx_interface add -p eth0 802.2 0x12345678

(change eth0 for the name of your ethernet/wireless card)

The frame type (802.2) needs to be equal for everyone. It is recommended to use ethernet II instead of 802.2. If playing with computers with Windows, make sure their frame type is set to what you have, and not 'automatic'. It may cause issues if you forget it.

 
HOWTO: Use Hellfire without the CD.

First, put the Diablo CD in! If you've already installed it, great. If not, go do that. Then, do this on the command line:

note: this dosnt need to be done for the hellfire CD

dd if=/dev/cdrom of=~/Diablo.iso

To mount this image of the CD:
sudo mkdir /media/iso0
sudo mount -o loop ~/Diablo.iso /media/iso0

Using winecfg, add a new drive that points to /media/iso0, and give it the type CD-ROM. Finally, run Diablo.exe in your program files and you're done! Whenever you want to mount it again, just do:
sudo mount -o loop ~/Diablo.iso /media/iso0

When you're done and don't feel like keeping it mounted, just do:
sudo umount /media/iso0

If you have any issues still with Diablo complaining about no CD being inserted, make sure the iso mount point you made is configured as a CD-ROM device in winecfg, and make sure you have already mounted it first!

~/wine/dosdevices should contain: (D being the drive letter of the iso image)

d\: (link to /media/iso0)

d\:\: (link to ~/Diablo.iso)

 
HOWTO: Fixing blank menus
get the directdraw hack from here

choose the archive for the version you need

inside the archive ddraw-1.x.tar.bz2 there are four folders

one for wine 1.0, one for wine 1.1.0, one for wine 1.1.1 and one for wine-1.1.2

inside each folder is a file called ddraw.dll

find out your version of wine with winecfg

put the correct version of ddraw.dll either in your wine's c:\windows\system32 directory or your games main directory (c:\diablo)

use regedit to import hack.reg with

regedit hack.reg

if you don't import the registry file then the hack will NOT be enabled

if the hack doesn't work consider compiling it yourself from source (see instructions in the archive)

DirectDraw Mode

You must have DirectDrawRenderer in the registry set to "gdi" (which is the default) for Diablo to work. If you have changed it to "opengl" at any point then the game will crash after the Blizzard logos.

 for your convenience here is a reg file that will change it for you:

-------------start DDrawRender.reg-------------

REGEDIT4
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\AppDefaults\Diablo.exe\Direct3D] "DirectDrawRenderer"="gdi"

--------------end DDrawRender.reg--------------

just copy the date NOT including the dashed lines to DDrawRender.reg and then use

wine regedit DDrawRender.reg

to add it to the registry

Blanked menus
by Nicholas Wolfwood on Wednesday December 22nd 2010, 5:08
I've done everything to solve the blank menus problem, so far as I can tell, the link for hack.reg is just broken. Any new location to download it? Or can its info be posted here please?

I just installed the newest version of wine. I've had little success with Diablo as of yet, but new developments now that I've installed the newest version of Wine.

On whatever version Linux provides automatically in the Add/Remove app, I could install Diablo and get through the opening movies, but the menu would be completely black (and since it's been forever since I've even played the game - I just pulled it out for kicks and giggles and to test out Wine - I have no idea how the menus are set up any longer).

With the new install, the same thing happened. But after moving the .dll file that has been recommended into the Diablo directory on my "C:" drive, I get a large error message about Diablo being unable to properli initialize my video card using DirectX. It suggests a bunch of things like installing the Direct X from the CD, but when I go to do that, it tells me my computer already has a newer version blah blah blah...

The error it encounters while trying to initialize the video card is:

DDERR_INVALIDMODE
at: dx.cpp line 170
