[Solved] Project64 (which runs via wine) won't start w/ an error

I'm on 64 bit arch laptop trying to run project64, but the app won't start. I installed project64 from the repo and it pulled wine as a dependancy. Upon firsst-run I was prompted to install wine gecko and hit the install button. This froze and I force-closed the window which then prompted me to select a language. I got a "Program Error" message saying that pj64 encountered a serious problem and needs to close. I then found and installed the wine_gecko package, but this didn't solve the problem.
The console outputs the following:
wine: Unhandled page fault on read access to 0xffffffff at address 0x7cdb9eda (thread 0009), starting debugger...
Someone please help me.

Make sure you have the correct lib32 drivers for your graphics card, since wine is a 32 bit app. For example,m for nvidia you need the lib32-nvidia-utils package. This seems to be more of a general Wine issue rather than an issue with project64 though, but hopefully installing the correct package should help. I maintain the project64 AUR package though, so I feel like I should do my best to help, and possuibly imporve my package too if something's wrong with it Also, if that doesn't work, try running this, it will give more terminal output that could be useful (by default it uses WINEDEBUG=-all to get rid of the extra debug info and stuff wine outputs by default, but it might be helpful here):
wine "$HOME"/.project64/Project64.exe
Also, IMO, all the Mupen64plus frontends seem to be kinda crappy right now (cutemupen crashesd so I can't even try that one out...), but the one I'va had the best luck with is wxmupen64plus-hg, so give that a shot, though it does still have some issues sometimes, but it lets you configure the controllers and stuff, so that's good And if you felt like using it, you could install version 1.5 (it's in AUR too, but I haven't tested it), since version 1.5 has a GUI and it always worked great when I used to use that

Hi there, I have installed iTune on my new Toshiba laptop which runs on Win 8. I can update itune on Toshiba laptop, sync but the iphone Apps still showing app to be updated. Restarted both Itune and iphone....reset phone backup....to no avail.....HELP!

I have removed now all bloatware from laptop, CCleaner run and some more stuff: installed Libre Office, Free Avast, Mozilla Firefox - Spotify was preinstalled. And now this is even better - really simple and fast.
I also removed Ethernet completely, as I don't want to be locked at one place. It's not cool to use laptop on divan sofa. So tired after hour of sitting in uncool position. Wifi speed loss is almost 50%. 95 Mbps I get from 100 Mbps at Ethernet and on Wifi in laptop I get at max 50 Mbps. It's only for end this year this way, then I will slow down my connection anyway as for one person and laptop/smartphone it's way too much of speed for 40 €. With 27€ I can get the same 10M/10M and it will be more than enough. Now I have 100M/10M.
I'm also considering about 50M/10M option for 32.90 €, but I will see what I do. I download now test file 10GB and it loads 30-40 Mbps and sometimes even as fast as 50 Mbps. It depends on server also, but ebven on Google, which works on Ethernet at 95 Mbps, it is on Wifi nothing more than 51 Mbps.
It's also 10GB of 1,100 Offlined tracks, I tested it now. So on trips 32GB card should be enough for my phone. I'm going to one soon :)

[solved] xorg proglem - won't start, but no error

Hi folks!
I'm new to Arch, my first installation, but I used to use Gentoo in the past. Got a problem with making X to run. I followed the guide from the wiki, but I didn't manage it to work.
I'm using nVidia drivers from 173xx branch (GF 5900XT). Hal is working properly, I hope - /etc/rc.d/restart successes w\o errors.
At first, I tried to run X without xorg.conf and it complained about missing 'nv' and 'vesa' (i hope) modules. Then, after running nvidia-configure (/etc/X11/xorg.conf was successfully created) and startx - screen blanks (no nVidia logo shown) and after ~3 seconds it comes back with massage "waiting for X server to shut down". In /var/log/Xorg.0.log there were no lines starting with (EE).
Then I tried to configure X with "X -configure". After making new config and replacing the older one at /etc/X11/xorg.conf and running X with command startx (as user), it complained about missing type1 and truetype modules ((EE) lines as far as I remember). After installing missing packages/modules:
http://dpaste.com/60888/
it still won't start. Screen blanks, no nVidia logo shown, and later comes back with well known screen ( usual text... look over /var/log/Xorg.0.log for more details...). Only message after default text id "waiting for X server to shut down", with no (WW) nor (EE) lines above.
More useful data comes:
Xorg.0.log
http://dpaste.com/60883/
xorg.conf
http://dpaste.com/60885/
tail of dmesg
http://dpaste.com/60887/
If you need anything else to see, request!
Any idea? To me, it looks like nvidia driver bug or some xorg bug (or maybe just a misconfiguration)
In ~/.xinitrc stays only "exec startfluxbox", but even with empty file, situation is the same.
Thank you in advance,
Daniel

Hello, welcome to Arch!
You should read about the new feature of Xorg, input hotplugging: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Beg … otplugging
A more detailed explanation can be found here: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xor … otplugging
Be sure to copy the fdi file in the correct directory.
Since I am using also the 173xx branch, here is my xorg.conf, hope it will be useful for you:
http://dpaste.com/60927/
EDIT: Not 100% sure but I seem to recall that the nvidia driver has some problems when you don't set the default depth. Add that line

Fedora via Parallels won't start up

Hi there.. Yesterday I was asking whether I can have linux on my mac... Today my linux is already there, installed on a virtual drive in Parallels tools... but here's the problem: it won't start up.. after (I think successful) booting it says after screen blinking, something like this: "The display server has been shut several times during last 90 seconds....." I've tried everything, rebooting the virtual machine as well as my macbook, changing preferences in parallels like adding up memory and video memory, what's the problem?
thanx everyone

The two things I would try are;
1. Reset the NVRAM, and.
2. reset the SMC.

Powerbook won't start - Disk Utility error "Invalid Key Length" - help plz!

Hello
I am having problem with my Titanium powerbook. Since it was refurbished I have only been using it for internet browsing and email and I don't know why it suddenly started freezing. After a couple of freezes it stopped starting up. I don't know why, as I wasn't doing anything unusual. I have run a few checks and don't know how to proceed. Please help.
This is what I have done so far:
1. Tried to start up in Safemode. Made the startup sound but then went dead.
2. I tried Single User Mode and did fsck -fy and the results were:
** /dev/rdisk0s10
** Root file system
** Checking HFS Plus volume
** Checking Extents Overflow file.
** Checking catalogue file
Invalid key length
(4, 135)
** volume check failed
localhost:/ root# Firewire (OHCI) Apple ID 18 built-in: no valid self IDs for more than 2 minutes after bus reset.
3. No problems were detected by the Hardware Test disk.
But the powerbook still won't start up properly. I can't get past the blue screen with the 'thinking' (rotating) circle icon (pinwheel?).
4. When I try to access the computer using a firewire cable the hard disk doesn't appear on the host computer.
5. I tried Disk repair Utility from startup using a disk but got the same result as with fsck -fy.
Any ideas?

Hi, Can't. Your hard drive's directory is damaged in a way that exceeds the limited repair capabilities of Disk Utility or fsck. DiskWarrior can fix "invalid key length" errors, as this short FAQ explains. If you have DiskWarrior, use it to make the repair. If you don't, you can either buy DW, or reformat the hard drive with Disk Utility and start over. Note that reformatting the drive will erase everything on it, so if there's any important, un-backed-up data on it that you can't afford to lose, buying DW will be the better option for you.

Downloaded firefox 5.0.1 last night, worked fine, Turned computer on today, Mozilla Firefox, it won't start. Get error message, Error: Platform version '5.0' is not compatible with minVersion =5.0.1 maxVersion =5.0.1" What do I need to do to fix it?

We downloaded firefox 5.0.1 last night, began working with it. It did fine. After about an hour, I turned off my computer. When I turned on my computer, I click on Mozilla Firefox and it won't start. I get this error message, " Error: Platform version '5.0' is not compatible with minVersion >=5.0.1 maxVersion <=5.0.1" from XUL Runner. What do I need to do to fix it?

The updater wasn't able to update all the files and some were left as older versions.<br />
Do a clean reinstall.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version.
* Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

Please help - iTunes won't start anymore: unknown error -69

Hello out there,
please can anybody help me: all of a sudden my iTunes won't start any more - it only shows a message stating an unknown error -69 and then quits.
I did not change anything on my system before that, so I just don't know what could trigger that...
I am using iTunes 7.0.2 on Windows XP SP2, both German versions.
Before posting this question I searched the archives and tried the following, all to no avail:
1. disabled "safe mode" in QuickTime audio options -> problem remains
2. set speakers to "stereo headphones" in Windows sound options -> problem remains
3. deinstalled iTunes, downloaded the installation file again and reinstalled it -> problem remains
4. deinstalled iTunes and QuickTime, downloaded QuickTime stand-alone version, installed this and afterwards iTunes again -> problem remains
5. deinstalled iTunes and QuickTime again, deleted all iTunes and QuickTime data folders, reinstalled everything again -> problem remains
6. ran a CHKDSK an the drive iTunes is on -> no problems found
It still won't start, always giving this unknown error -69.
Please, does anybody know what to do?
Any hints and help are much appreciated!
Thanks a lot
and best regards

Can a windows trojan/virus affect OSX if run via Wine?

Hello,
I'm running Mac OS X 10.9.4 on a Macbook Pro 15" Mid-2010.
I downloaded an .exe file from an uncertain source to execute it with Wine. When I executed the file, no window appeared, but the CPU fan started working very loud. I know, it was irresponsible, but I'd been encouraged by the belief that no harm can be done to my Mac as the app I was about to run was a Windows app). I killed Wine, but it wouldn't help the loud fan. After about 5 minutes I got a cascade of 3-4 Wine windows showing some error. I made a screenshot (below), killed all the windows, logged out and back in and the fan, after a minute got silent. Is it possible I just got myself malware? And if so, then how to get rid of it?
The app has been reported on virustotal as containing malware.
The screenshot:
Best regards,
Osmo

Thanks for your answers!
Those rootkit attacks were, what I had in mind.
I just didn't know, how imminent the danger really is and if it already happened.
Thanks again!

My iMac started running slow now won't start at all

Two days ago, my Mid 2011 iMac 27-inch, OSX Lion 10.7.5 started running very slow. Had trouble opening and closing apps. Then after restarting, it took an extraordinary amount of time to start. Had to shut down by holding in Power button. Restart failed a few times, then I was finally able to get to desktop but unable to open any apps. After many tries and waiting about 30 minutes between each keystroke for something to happen, I got to Disk Utility.
Under the First Aid tab, I ran Verify disk and got "The volume Macintosh HD appears to be Ok." Repair Disk was not an active button. At one point I got to the Force Quit menu under the Apple and force quitted Safari, iPhoto, and one other app (maybe Disk Utility) but then still was not able to Shut Down the computer.
Some background info that may or not be important, I have been unable to Empty Trash or Secure Empty Trash for a long time. Most of my hard drive filled capacity (60%) are photos and videos. After running for what seems a very long time, I'd get an error message about not having the right permissions to delete some files in Trash.
Back to Disk Utility, I tried to run Repair Permissions and Verify Disk Permissions, and both just ran forever (hours) until I stopped them. After 6 hours of reading possible solutions in this community but being able to perform none of them, I unplugged the computer because I couldn't get to Shut Down.
This morning, I plugged it back in and upon hitting Power, it took about 10 minutes to get the User icons. I clicked on mine and got a gray screen with the spinning circle. That was about 30 minutes ago and nothing has changed.
I welcome to all offers of help. My concern is that I was in the middle of copying folders upon folders of photos and videos to an external hard drive for the past several weeks and still have not completed that project. I look forward to a solution that would not result in the loss of photos an videos.

When I selected Disk Utility, the Repair Disk button was active. It ran for a few minutes then read, "The Volume Macintosh HD appears to be Ok." Followed by "Volume repair complete" and "Updating boot support partitions for the volume as required." I have no idea what that last statement means.
I just ran "Verify Disk" and "The Volume Macintosh HD appears to be Ok" was the result.
I also ran "Verify Disk Permissions" which wouldn't run yesterday but did just now. Ended with "Permissions verifications complete."
I ran Repair Disk Permissions, "Permissions Repair Complete."
What should be my next step?

[SOLVED] After installing eclipse, conkeror-git won't start

Yesterday, I made the mistake of installing eclipse to check it out. Ever since I installed (and quickly uninstalled) the bloatware, my conkeror-git has been complaining that it can't find XULrunner:
/usr/bin/conkeror: cannot continue. XULRunner not found.
Xulrunner is installed, of course:
$ which xulrunner
/usr/bin/xulrunner
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling both xulrunner and conkeror several times, as well as rebooting my machine.
I don't know much about xulrunner, but is it possible that the eclipse install messed with some sort of xulrunner configuration file that persists despite reinstalls?
Last edited by madalu (2010-02-24 13:55:49)

I found the persistent configuration that I was looking for. After consulting /usr/bin/conkeror, I solved this problem by moving /etc/gre.d to /etc/gre.d.bak and reinstalling xulrunner.
FWIW, it seems that eclipse changes the xulrunner registry in ways that cause the /usr/bin/conkeror script to barf. (Weaning myself off xulrunner by learning uzbl is on my todo list - I promise!)
