[SOLVED] Wine suddenly broken

Ok first of all I don't know if this is related to the pacman issues that has been reported.
Did an upgrade today wich included an upgrade of wine. Half way through wine it throws an error and doesn't complete the upgrade. It appears as if pacman has removed wine and then not been able to install the newer version of it because now I can't start my apps anymore due to some files missing. Any ideas?
Edit: Ok, so a pacman -Sf wine solved the issue for now it seems.

Thanks again for you suggestions.
But I don't think it's causing problems as it's part of Kwin (the KDE windows manager) and if I'm correct Xmonad is another WM.
So I don't think it really has an effect. I think it matters only if you use Kwin and it's effects.
Yes, xmonad is another window manager. But I doubt it has anything to do with this konqueror problem, since it worked perfectly until some update a few days back. Unfortunately I could not find a way to figure out which packages had been updated in the last days (man pacman is silent about that).
Maybe check you Konqueror settings. Or your windows management settings.
In Konqueror look at performance and web settings.
But I can't help you with windows manager.
Again, I doubt that any settings are to blame, because until that ominous update everything worked like a charm.
But I am curious why do you even use Konqueror I'm a KDE user and I don't use it. mostly because Flash can be a bit of a pain sometimes working and sometimes not.
The flash problems are annoying, but other than that Konqueror is the least annoying browser I know of. It is configurable without headaches (it has MENUES for easy configuration), the design is more pleasant than Firefox, and it does not send information about my browsing habits to Google or any other companies.

Please solve this mysterious broken run arrow

Everything works great for a while. Then suddenly, this will happen. This is on a PXI chassis using a lot of LVOOP. It happened on my PC so I moved the code all to a VM. It worked fine for a while, then it just came back. These are NI's VIs. The weird thing is, if I diagram disable them, I still can't deploy. I get a broken run arrow right at the end of the deployment (when it says deploying Main), but when the broken run arrow is clicked I have the error list with no errors in it. Tried closing everything, still problem not solved.

How to Fix Your LabVIEW Failed to Compile or LabView Broken Arrow on Compile.
If you have a happy vi running in LabVIEW and it has a happy arrow then it SHOULD compile to an executable. RIGHT??!! NOT... Frequently, especially if the project is LARGE, it will not properly compile!
I show you how you can compile EVEN when you have a broken arrow!
When LabVIEW fails on building an executable it sometimes does not show you WHERE the error is. It also tells you that you need files that you are not using! Go figure! This is because some of the files are ignored that should not be ignored.
If you know how to get rid of the nag screen please let me know by sending an email to me at [email protected]
This is on a Virtual Machine Windows 7 on VMWARE Fusion 6.02 and the bloody Virtual Windows 7 works better on my iMac than it does on the Toshiba Laptop that I cloned it from!

Flash site suddenly broken

-I made this site in Flash with GAIA several years ago/there have been no updates to the site for at least 8 months and suddenly none of the sub-navs are loading! i am assuming this is an issue with flashplayer updates across browsers (cause when i tested in firefox BEFORE updating it worked and google + safari were updated and it was broken in them/and it works locally when i re-published all the swfs in flash for fp 10)-arghh--i am at a loss what to do now /
this is the site:
http://medriemacphee.com
if anyone can offer suggestions/tips?/ i appreciate your consideration. thanks.

Did you update your flash player debugger executable to the latest 11.7? You say it works locally if you publish for FP10, does it work online published for FP10 as well? Also try running the actual debugger version of the flash player (e.g. on win not just CTRL+ENTER (old player), use the debugger CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER). See if it messes up for that.
Per your PM, I'd prefer you keep your information here rather than private messages. It lets others help out. I'm still in the process of moving a house several states away and I've been on and off for a couple months during that.
As for the XML you showed me, it has no syntactical issues. I was able to parse it in Flash and extract info so that part works fine. What would really be useful is the errors you must get inside Flash Pro itself when it tries to load these images. I feel it's just not finding the images. I think if you use the latest 11.7 debugger, because your issue is based on the "latest" player, you'll see some useful IOErrorEvents that can help diagnose the issue.

[SOLVED] Wine & MS Office - can't open word doc

I cannot open a Word (*.doc) document by double clicking it. It works with XLS documents which open in Excel. When I double-click a DOC file, Word will launch, but won't load any file. It gives an error saying
Word experienced an error trying to open the file.
Try these suggestions.
* Check the file permissions for the document or drive.
* Make sure there is sufficient free memory and disk space.
* Open the file with the text recovery converter.
If I open Word and click on File->Open, I can open the file by browsing for it without a problem.
Any ideas?

Sorry, I was just gonna add that I have solved the problem in a simular way.
After clearing old ~/.wine folder and re-installing wine and windows programs again, I have noticed there are loads of program duplicates in the Nautilus "properties">"open with">"add" list. Changing to the first occurance of the program enabled the file to be launched and opened.
I'm gonna try and rid myself of all the duplicates by removing all old occurances of mime/.desktop entries in ~/.local etc, hopefully after update-mime-database and update-desktop-database this will give me a clean list of programs.

[SOLVED]Ncurses applications broken

Hi,
I have been using Arch Linux for about an year now. Its really is an awesome distro and I havent faced much problems with it, but for recently a minor bump. I spend most of my time in the console session using the ncurses based applications like finch, tmux, etc. However, recently after installing gnome, these applications appear broken. Instead of drawing lines, the draw a sequence of charachters, which kinda looks ugly. Though, they appear perfect in gnome-terminal/xterm. After, some googling, I found out it might be related to locale settings. In my rc.conf, LOCALE="en_US.UTF-8". Is there anything I am missing out? Any pointers? Appreciate your help.

[PARTIALLY SOLVED] Wine 3D apps make the system randomly freezes

Hi!
Since some months, i can't play longer that one hour on games through wine: xorg locks up the system randomly: i can't switch to a console or close the game with Alt+F4. I can only move the mouse, and the sound is always running. Moreover, I can always connect to the pc through SSH.
I think it's due to fglrx driver, because with the OSS one, I never freeze so (but I get crap performances, what is not the best to play...).
Did someone got the same issue and solved it?
Thanks,
nob.
Last edited by nob.dir (2012-10-30 21:38:33)

Write bug report to amd, and pray.
Edit: To not leave the post so cynical.
AMD's fglrx driver is not that high quality. From personal exprience, it has always caused more problems than good.
So your only choice is really to a) Write detailed bug to amd, and hope they fix it. b) Use the open source drivers. c) Change GPU

Suddenly broken: "To execute 'save as PDF' command you must have Acrobat Distiller 5.05 or higher"

I've been using FM9 with Acrobat Pro 9 just fine for months on end, and suddenly FM9 "forgot" about Acrobat Pro 9. I've reinstalled the entire suite TWICE.
Googling the error messages reveals that this is a very very old problem; I'm quite surprised to see it again in TCS. But all the suggestions I've read so far have not worked.
Any new ideas?
BTW, this is one reason why I am not planning to buy TCS for my entire team; at least not until these sorts of problems are fixed.
-Dee

Dee, a couple of thoughts:
2) The workarounds, using .ps and Distiller, or print-to-the PDF driver, result in a PDF with broken links. None of the FM9 hypertext links work, not even the TOC. This is what I'll have to ship to my customers, a PDF with broken links.
In the FM Print dialog box, did you activate the Generate Acrobat Data checkbox and uncheck the Print to File checkbox? You need to Generate Acrobat data to enable hyperlinks.
3) I had installed all the updates... old Forum posts suggested that the updates might be the problem! So I've tried it both with and without the updates...
It's possible. However, forum posters tend not to be mainstream users... so I'd suppose that the updates work for >95% of users, who don't have any reason to post because the updates work.
Also, as noted before, you didn't provide any system information... but if you're on XP, I'm assuming you installed the Microsoft HotFix for PostScript printers (including PDFs).

[SOLVED] nfsroot install broken after kernel upgrade 3.5.6 to 3.6.2

It seems my nfsroot installations have broken after the kernel upgrade to 3.6.2.
This is as far as the boot process gets now (hand copied from the screen):
IP-Config: eth0 complete (from 10.48.50.20):

Bailing out, you are on your own. Good luck.

On the server this is what is logged:

It looks to me like the client is sending the mount request, the server accepts and then for some reason the client thinks it has failed. I can't even see anything strange in the wireshark traces comparing the working client (3.5.6) to the broken one (3.6.2).
Anyone else using nfsroot successfully with the latest kernel?
Any other ideas?
(by the way - despite my directory names, this is using nfs v3 for the rootfs)

So I wonder if it asking for the wrong path.
That unmount issue will be solved by FS#32021.
Unfortunately, that doesn't help with mounting in the first place with 3.6.2

Can you please help solve my sudden problem saving photos in version sets?

Saving edited photos in Version Set
Ever since I have owned the excellent Adobe Photoshop Elements 4.0, I have saved edited photos in a version set with the original. Now, in spite of the 'save in Version Set' box being ticked, they are saved separately. When the edited photo is saved, it says 'imported from hard disk'. It has never said this before.
When the photos are imported from the camera, they are saved in Adobe/Digital Camera Photos/code provided by photoshop (eg 2006-03-10-1632-38). Under properties/history it says imported from Panasonic DMZ-TZ3. This has not changed. All the saving arrangements appear to be unchanged.
Photos (thousands!) have been successfully edited and saved in a Version Set. Under properties/history it says 'edited version' and 'imported from Panasonic DMZ-TZ3'.
Suddenly, photos that have been edited and should have been saved in a version set, now say under properties/history nothing about being edited. They say 'imported from hard disk'. In other words they are being treated as a new photo.
I really hope you can help me to solve this infuriating problem. Please ask if you need more information.
I work on a PC with Windows XP

Michael: are you still using an old version o0f PSE (e.g. PSE V4)? Problems similar to the one that you described are relatively frequent in old PSE Versions ( I was suffering a lot from them)..... and there are quite seldom in newer PSE versions. Unfortunately, I do not remember which PSE Version became much better in this area (was it V5? or V6?)
If using an older PSE version and encoutering often the problem: consider to migrate to a newer PSE Version..

[SOLVED] wine arial font only bold and italic

I have installed office 2003 in wine. Some one send me a document in arial regular font. It looks fine in winxp, but when I open with the word by wine the all the arial font looks bold and italic.
I have also tried with winetricks corefonts but nothing changed.
Last edited by sant527 (2009-12-01 11:07:16)

The problem got solved when I copy pasted the fonts from /usr/share/fonts/TTF to wine fonts folder.
Now arial looks fine as of windows.

[SOLVED] WINE and Eve Online

First off, I am not using 64bit.
Lately, running Wine and Eve-Online is fine.
However, when I Quit from the game menu...it freezes.
I actually have to x-it-out (the wine window), and a window pops up with
"A simulated logout was in the process and is not responding".. or some such thing
and then I can terminate it and get my desktop back.
I've seen several posts about this, but no resolve.

I use PlayOnLinux to manage my WINE prefixes. It turns out the 1.7.18-CS-0.8-f1cf438 build is a build of the HEAD of that repository. So I switched to that WINE version, and yes, the problem is solved.
I also created a CSMT-enabling registry key. To do so, launch regedit, browse to HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Wine/Direct3D, right click and select New > String Value “CSMT”. Then, double click and set the string to “enabled”.
Thank you!
Neat!
Then the million isk question is, "Why does the CSMT build not display this issue?"
I just might have to put on my scuba gear and go diving into this some more when the schedule permits.

[solved] Wine OpenGL Drivers

Hello
Since I updated my Wine long time ago, 3D applications won't start.
Wine gives this output
http://pastebin.com/whccHcRx
but my nvidia driver is installed correctly

Is it an 64 bit issue?
I am using Arch 64 Bit and bin32-wine 1.1.41 from AUR.

I solved the issue by reinstalling wine and other bin32 apps and I added lib32-nvidia-utils (lib32-catalyst-utils for ATI).

[SOLVED]Wine 100% cpu usage in some games

I'm using wine for almost 2yrs now, only to play counterstrike which it runs flawlessly. I today installed nfs undercover and it seems that cpu usage is always 100%(due to nfs.exe). From the nvidia control center I can see that the gpu temp is really low from which I can guess that the gpu is underutilized and so the game runs sluggishly. As I dont game that much in wine, I'm asking u guys that Is it supposed to be like this? or are there any tweaks?

Generally it is though. What's a 'hardcore' game? I play HoN through wine (long story) and I know that big resource hog NWN2 ran just the same FPS in wine as on the windows install. Those are even DirectX games, the extra cost of DirectX->OpenGL conversion is offset by the fact that you don't have to run a virus scanner and all those junk apps a typical windows install needs.
IMO wine is made for games of all kind. Now if only it worked better with Office and the Adobe apps....

[solved] WINE+Diablo 2+Noveau with Mesa 8.0.2 not working

Hi all,
I just installed arch on my old barebone which has an NVidia GF4 Ti 4400.
I am aware that 3D support for older chips like my NV24 is more limited than for newer cards (e.g. 9800GT).
The strange thing here:
Diablo2 launched via WINE stopped working.
3D acceleration is fine in place as I can tell both from the output of glxinfo and Urban Assault running blazingly fast:
OpenGL vendor string: Nouveau
OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI nv25 x86/MMX+/3DNow!+/SSE
OpenGL version string: 1.2 Mesa 8.0.2
Launching Diablo 2 causes an unhandled exception and I suspect Noveau being the problem here.
At least the error message sounds like this:
..games\diablo2\Game.exe: nv20_state_fb.c:50: get_rt_format: Assertion `0' failed.
As Diablo 2 worked fine on the same box several days before when I had Trisquel installed (older Noveau / WINE version though) there seems to be a regression bug.
Has anyone experienced similar behaviour running Noveau on older GeForce cards ?
Thanks,
D$
Last edited by Darksoul71 (2012-05-10 09:47:44)

Hm, and a bug report should be filled with more than just an educated guess, no ?
I asked here for someone else to step in because I just recently switched back from Trisquel to arch on my "tinker box".
So we talk here about at least four components which have changed:
- Xorg
- Noveau plus Mesa stack
- WINE
- Kernel
Hard to tell what causes the issue. My guess is that something in Noveau changed between 7.11 and 8.0 but only one with a similar GPU following the arch's rolling updates for a longer period can really evaluate this issues. My bug report would be pointless and just filled with speculations. Not very worthwile for the noveau devs to read. Esp. since they should and will rather concentrate on newer cards than old, legacy stuff as my GF4 4400, I guess
Edit:
According to the Noveau wiki (http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/MesaDrivers) one should not file bug reports at all for this driver:
nouveau_vieux (NV04 - NV20)
nouveau_vieux_dri.so is a classic Mesa DRI driver, and not a Gallium3D driver, because these cards do not have enough shader capabilities to reasonably support the Gallium3D infrastructure.
Do not file bug reports about this driver.
Hm, so my guess is that I simply can wait if a newer version of Mesa fixes the issue.
Edit: I added solved to the topic. Mainly not because the issue itself is solved but because of the facts that this is "only" my scrap system which I hardly would use for WINE gaming anyway and secondly because the issues is either really solved but a future version of nouveau or will never go away.

[solved]Emesene suddenly makes X restart all the time

All of a sudden, emesene makes X restarts all the time. I can start the application with no problem. Logging in isn't a problem either but when I click on a contact or click on a menu like File, X restarts and I have to log back in. It happens with emesene from community, with abs and the latest svn version. When I run it from the console, all I see is a warning about the usage of a deprecated md5 module. Any idea how to resolve this issue?
