Arch 64bit and 32bit games under wine

Hi there,
I am using an x86_64bit version of arch linux and have tried to use Civilization IV and Warcraft III with wine. But i have no usable Framerates. I have tried a lot of issues from Google Searches and from this forum but i cannot handle this problem. My first idea was, that my drivers are not installed correctly. But programs like glxinfo and glxgears says that there is hardware rendering enabled and compiz also works fine. After some researches today i think to have a new idea for my problem.
First i need to say, that i have an Thinkpad T400 with onborad graphics Intel HD4500 or so on. On Ubuntu with wine there were no problems in using Civ IV and Warcraft III, but under Arch Linux i cannot get it to work correctly. The Ubuntu was also an 64bit version.
Is it possible that wine need 32bit libaries for the graphics driver because of the 32bit games? I have only installed the normal pacman packages for my system, which only compile the drivers for 64bit. If this can fix fix the problem. How can I install 32bit and 64 bit drivers on one system?
I am relativly new to Arch Linux, so pls tell me the right commands if you need mor informations. And thank you for your issues.

This is almost definitely the problem. First, add the new [multilib] repo (see the news page for how to do this). Then run pacman -Syu lib32-intel-dri (assuming you are using the 64-bit intel-dri. otherwise you may have to build something from the AUR).

Heroes Of Might And Magic V under Wine

My wine has just been updated by pacman -Syu, I looked into winehq database and found this:
http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=4905
Looks like both demo and retail version are working correctly in wine (not cedega). What are your experiences with this game under wine?
I am mostly interested in opinions of people who use open source driver for their video cards (DRI).

Installation CS6 64bit and 32bit

When I installed the downloaded Photoshop CS6 software, the application offered to install BOTH 64bit AND 32bit versions.
Never seen that before, usually software looks at system and installs the correct version (or you choose before downloading).
I have Windows 7 64bit system.
Is there a reason to install BOTH? Is there a problem to have both installed?
Thanks,

PS CS 6 on 64 bit machnie offers you both the options 32 bit as well as 64 bit.
Its your choice to install both or any one of it.
64 bit Photoshop can utilize more RAM installed on your machine and will respond better to larger files as compared to 32 bit
On 32 bit OS , there is no choice given because the only option left out is 32 bit photoshop.
If you install both the versions, there will be "NO PROBLEM AT ALL"

Should I install both the 64bit and 32bit install of Photoshop CS6

Should I install both the 64bit and 32bit install of Photoshop CS6?

you probably will want to install both: http://forums.adobe.com/message/4635420

Cannot run Source games under Wine

Hello, I remember when I used ubuntu I had the ability to run Source games (although they looked... weird, I couldn't place my finger on it) under wine, however I have yet to get any source games to run. When I try to run them the text comes out all messed up, and the textures are screwed up beyond belief.

Can I use Labview 2013 on 64bit and 32bit PC interchangeably?

Hello,
I am currently running Labview 2013 base package on Windows 7/64 bit laptop PC, which is not permanently kept in the lab. I need to buy a 32-bit desktop PC to operate a non-Labview application, but, it would be very convenient to use the new 32-bit machine to run Labview also, since it WILL BE permanently in the lab. Then, I wouldn't have to be connecting/disconnecting the laptop in the lab every time I am doing system development.
Can I load my version of Labview 2013 on a Windows 7/32-bit desktop system and write/run VIs the same way I currently do on my Windows 7/64-bit laptop?
If the 32-bit and 64-bit are interchangeable, then, I would get a higher end 32-bit system. If they are not, then, I will get the cheapest 32-bit system available, and dedicate it to the non-Labview application.
Thanks,
Dave

You seem to be confusing a few things.
A typical PC can run either a 32 bit windows or 64 bit windows 7. The 32 bit version can only support up to 4GB of RAM, while the 64 bit does not have this limitation.
Both versions can run 32 bit applications and most applications are still 32 bit. (In contrast, a 64 bit application cannot run under a 32 bit OS).
With respect to LabVIEW, a typical installation uses LabVIEW 32 bit, independent of the bitness of the OS. (There are very few specializes scenarios where 64 bit LabVIEW is even useful). I assume that your LabVIEW is 32 bit on your current 64 bit PC. Is this assumption correct?
With the current RAM prices, and keeping memory upgrades in mind, it does not make a lot of sense to even install a 32bit OS (except maybe on a cheap netbook). 64bit Windows can run 32 bit applications just fine. Are you sure that your special application is an exception here?
In any case, VIs are freely interchangeable between LabVIEW 32 and 64 bit (and even mac and linux). When moved to a new platform, they simply recompile automatically.

If your version is Labiew 2013 (32 bit) (and I assume it is!), you can run it on both systems. If you are currently using LabVIEW 64 bit (unlikely), you need to install LabVIEW 32 bit on the 32 bit machine. Even in that case, theVIs are fully interchangeable.

I uninstalled PS CC 2014 (64-bit) from my computer thinking I didn't need both the 64bit and 32bit version on my PC.

I thought i was uninstalling the 32bit version and I guess that's what I get for thinking. I do have the 32bit version. What do I need to do to get/download my 64bit version back? Someone had mentioned deactivating before uninstalling? Have no idea how to do that if you're even suppose to do it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Marc N

uninstall the 32 bit version too.
then follow solution 2 here if your cc desktop app still shows that ps is up-to-date, CC desktop lists applications as "Up to Date" when not installed
then reinstall using your cc desktop app.

Mouse and keyboard freeze under Win 7 Pro Bootcamp on 10.9.1

People,
This is an interesting (if frustrating) issue. I have previously had Windows 7 Pro running wonderfully under ML 10.8.x and I removed the partition when I had no further use for it. Last night I decided to re-install. I am using the wired Apple keyboard and a wired USB Microsoft mouse. I used Bootcamp Assistant as before to create a USB installation while downloading the latest Bootcamp software from Apple.
Windows 7 Pro installs fine, and then reboots. The first time I get to the low resolution Windows desktop everything is also OK. I then install the Bootcamp drivers, allow the installation to complete and reboot.
At this point Windows boots to desktop in appropriate iMac resolution...except the keyboard and mouse do not function. It may well be a USB port issue, as swapping another keyboard and mouse a) doesn't help or b) make the distinctive 'USB device connected' sound.
I may download an older version of the bootcamp drivers and try again.
Anyone have any thoughts?
Regards,
Steve
PS: I'm using the followig hardware
27" iMac - 3.4Ghz i7 - Late 2012
32GB RAM
1TB Fusion
2GB GTX 680MX

I was able to dowload the support software and paste it over the old support software in the USB Winstall that Bootcamp created before, however the same issue is persisting after I get to the screen to set up windows. I get no response from the mouse and the keyboard. Any suggestions?
I'm using a iMac 27in (2013), a wired apple keyboard, and a Logitech wireless mouse.

Microsft Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit and 32bit Retail with WinNt, WinPE, WinMCE networking install no notification

I have not been given any explanations for my multiple electronic communication device retail purchase problems. When ever I purchase a retail smartphone or retail notebook computer they do not have actual installed operating systems as advertised. The android
operating systems are Developer SDK. The operating system on my Virgin Mobile Samsung Galaxy Ring is Android Jelly Bean 4.2.1 purchased this year is part of a Developer SDK. I purchased a Samsung i7 Chronos win8 64 bit notebook at Best Buy last year and it
was configured as a Network Server Client in User Mode through the American Mega Trends Aptio Bios Setup Utility that had been customized to bypass regular Configuration files and install a custom operating systems on Network Volumes instead of the actual
partitioned hard drive. I ended up with WinPE boot in to WinNT and WinMCE in an OEM Networking client server platform partial operating virtual operating systems that I have been allowed a user profile with permissions in the Administrators Group. I am not
even the administrator of my own personal computer. Someone I do not know has hijacked the highest Administrative Authority at retail purchase and open up a number of profiles to the general public through the server client software. They have automated and
live access to the operating systems power up or power down. I do not even think the notebook is ever powered down even though the power and activity lights are out. It is like someone has taken the windows operating system I was suppose to get at retail and
swop it for partial virtual operating systems interface to network client software through serveers. I took the SamSung Chronos back to Best Buy and exchanged it for an Asus G75VX i7 Win8 64 bit gaming notebook with 3GB Nvidia Graphic's chip and 8GB memory
with 1TB hard drive 3D ready and it was configured the same way as the Samsung. I took it back and returned it to Best Buy and exchanged it for another brand new in the unopen box Asus G75VX i7 win8 64bit notebook. I took it back for Best Buy to take a look
at it because it was also configured the same way. Then I sent it to the Asus Service Center two times and it was returned to me both times configured the same way. Before I sent it back to Asus the two times I went to Fry's and purchased Windows 7 Home Premium
32 and 64bit operating systems on DVD and the notebook configured the software the same way. After install of win7 32 or 64bit the installed operating systems did not recognize the Window's 7 Home Premium 32 and 64bit retail DVD as the same version of operating
system. I took a look at the installation files on the retail disk and the configuration installed on the computer came from the software disk and the rest through background network servers but there is something in the AMI Aptio Bios that voids any of the
regular Configuration Files. My computer does not even recognize the configuration file in the normal sense on the retail disk. All of the system file extensions have been altered and been added to creating almost unlimited file extensions like the system
ran on Text. I paid $975.00 for the Samsung Chronos, $1375.00 for the two Asus G75VX's, $216.00 for the win7 DVD, $120.00 or more for insured postage on the to trips to the Asus Service Center not counting Asus prepayment of postage because I had to reship
the notebook in order to get it to me. I have spent about $150.00 or more on software for disk management, anti virus, internet security etc. The retail purchase were modified on return purchases. Since 2007 I have gone through about seven smart phone brand
new, About four of five regular internet phones and about eight notebook computers with three being used and five being brand new.
I still do not have an actual operating system installed on the actual retail hard drive and my notebook is not repaired. I have operating systems installed on Network Disk Volumes that are installed on a GPT Server Partition. The configuration visually
alters from background activities. All of my information is made public through the Virtual Public Shared C: drive.
I am legally disable and a pro se litigator in the United States Federal Courts. Since 2007 I have litigated in three civil actions in the United States District Courts and in one all the way to the United States Supreme Court. I am currently still litigating
in one as a legal interpreter and have done all of the legal work in that action since 2011. I have a civil litigation history in the United States District Courts dating back 28 years.
Having all of my communication devices hacked and the legal and personal information publicly shared through three federal civil actions and through public entity department and agencies is a gross violation of United States Constitution Article IV Citizenship
rights. A gross violation of the Bill of Rights First Amendment Rights to Petition the court for Redress of Grievances and Bill of Rights Fourth Amendment Privacy Rights and Bill of Rights Fourteenth Amendment Equal Protection and Due Process rights. It is
a gross violation of the Federal Communications Act FCC Rule 255 person's with disabilities access to electronics's telephone communication equipment and software since my smart phones and notebook computers were configured with networking, management and
telephone hardware and software. It is a gross violation of Title II of the American with Disabilities Act of 1990 as amended in rights of person's with disabilities. It is a gross violation of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 as amended on the rehabilitation
rights of persons with disabilities. It is a gross violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights act of 1964 Civil Rights and it is a gross violation of litigation privacy rights within all of the federal court rules such as the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure,
Federal Rules of Evidence, Federal Appellate Court Rules, Local Court Rules and United States Supreme Court Rules and the United States Federal Pacer Electronic Court Account and Filing System. It is also a gross violation of state law that has to comply
with federal law. There exists no question in law of the violations because I have furnished the computer registry files, Receipts and servicing records to Microsoft, Asus and others but nobody know how to solve the problem but the Win7 retail disks identical
to mine disappeared from retail store shelves. What is WNT_6.1H_64_MCE?oes anybody in the Microsoft and Asus community have any explanations for the total disregard for United States federal law and customer retail purchase rights? I went to Fry's and Best
Buy and took a look at a number of notebook computer files and configuration and a number of them were like mine. The thing that irritates me the most about the configuration if it is public is that it is not passive. A profile folder has been configured for
me that alters the configuration of what I purchased to violate my constitutional rights. They even alter the hardware and software settings to Legacy that ran on computers from ten fifteen years ago and force it on me at modern day electronics prices. That
is not right.

Where no law is involved in denials and restrictions in constitutional rights it is impossible for it to be legal.

64bit and 32bit drivers

I am running Windows Vista Ultimate SP2 64 bit system.
I also have the Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 running Windows XP 32bit
When I try to install my printers in the XP side, which are USB connected to the Vista side, it says that the drivers can't be found. (Looking for 32bit drivers)
I have downloaded drivers for HP Laserjet 1200 and HP Photosmart 8250 but it still says it can't find the proper drivers.
I am on the Vista side, in the printer properties trying to "Add driver" (x86)
Can someone point me to a specific 32bit dirver file names that I can browse for these printers.
Thank you.

I believe there is a single downloadable executable that contains both the 32-bit and 64-bit drivers. I would guess that the distinction is only maintained on the Download page so that Creative can track usage by platform (for development planning purposes, etc).
The driver signature checks are only an issue in the x64 version of Vista, which has tighter security and fewer compatibility constraints than the 32-bit version of Vista. This is why the checks weren't a problem for you on 32-bit Vista. Hopefully the future versions of the driver will be properly signed so that x64 users don't need to worry about this either.
PS. Go Opera!

GLC and EVE Online via wine

Hi fellow Arch-People! o/
For quite some time now I am searching for a program to capture gaming videos in Arch.
And after tools like xvidcapture, recordmydesktop and istanbul didn't satisfy me, I found GLC and installed it as described in this old newsletter: http://www.archlinux.org/static/magazin … ul-07.html
$ yaourt -S glc-git
Worked so far.
But not with wine:
$ WINEDEBUG=-all glc-capture -o /home/urviech/blubb -r 0.5 wine explorer /desktop=1,1680x1050 "D:\EVE2\eve.exe"
throws:
ERROR: ld.so: object 'libglc-hook.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored.

Then the Game launches, but capturing doesn't work.
Strange enough
$ glc-capture -o /home/urviech/xglc -r 0.5 glxgears
works well, and also Tux Racer.
I suspect it to be a problem related to me running Arch 64bit and wine being a 32bit Application.
So - what can I try to make this work?

Urviech wrote:
Ok, in the meantime I have set up a 32bit chroot environment, and used yaourt inside of it to build the glc-git package. I copied and installed it via pacman -U in my 64bit environment.
I also had to install lib32-libpng, and after that, it worked!
it still throws errors:
ERROR: ld.so: object 'libglc-hook.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored.
ERROR: ld.so: object 'libglc-hook.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored.
but only two times instead of nine, and its capturing just fine.
here's the compiled package, if anyone needs it:

Sorry for bumping an old thread but thanks very much for this works perfect on 64bit Arch.

Fixed sound issues under wine, but would like to know how

I managed to get sound working under wine. I have no idea how, but I did. Ill explain and see if anyone can make sense of it.
So I initially set up kmix to where my primary device was my soundblaster card. I would continuously get errors like "creative blah did not work, switching to 'HD audio generic'.
I would not get system notification sounds but things like youtube and movies would. I had no luck with wine. I then started experimenting with the preferred devices and set the generic one to primary. The sound would work, but my problem was reversed. I would get notification sounds but no youtube or media audio. I then tried moving "default" up to preferred, only to get the same result. Neither gave me any sound in games under wine --not to mention the horrible system hangups when using "HD audio generic" and "default"
So I decided I prefer media audio over notification audio and went back to my original configuration. The result was that I still got system notifications but no media audio. At this point, I became very confused and started experimenting with changing the sound profiles. Any sort of chage at all would create a "dummy device" as playback out of my creative card. About 15 reboots later and luck? maybe, I got it to at least give me notification audio. I was stumped. I also noticed that the hangups were returning.
After exhausting all the options, I was like "oh well better move the HD audio Generic back up" and see what happens. Reboot. Somehow, I got media audio AND wine sound worked as well as the system hangups stopping.
I have no idea. Anyone have a clue?
Im glad its working, but im not going actually going to learn anything unless i figure out what happened.
Thanks in advance.

Update: Ive found at least a modicum of consistency here. If I try to change anything in the preferences at all once I get wine audio working, it will stop working.
Thus far, here are my options..I can have
System Notification audio working and nothing else
System notification audio and media audio working, but no wine
Media Audio and Wine Audio working, but no system notification audio
But not all three
If I change one preference, wine audio on its own will stop working, or wine audio AND media audio will quit working.
If I change it back to the settings which allow wine audio and media audio to work, it usually will not. It will however work, consistently after enough reboots...2-10.
Any ideas?

City and transport games

Do you play city simulation or transport simulation games?
I tried to play lincity-ng, but it doesn't look mature.
Maybe it's just because I have trouble with this interface.
The best game of this type I played in Linux was Railroad Tycoon 2 (I finished it!), but it is not open source.
What do you like to play?
Have you tried to start such game under Wine? For example Railroad Tycoon 3 or Transport Giant?

I'm not much of a gamer anymore. I don't know much about modern games of this type, but I doubt they're very much different from the old ones. After all, what else can you add? Nicer graphics?
