Wine and Alsa

Hi, I'm totally new to wine, but would love to play jedi knight 3 with it, so far everything works perfectly.
OK, the installation didn't work, as it seems I have to install dcom. But copying everything manually works, too.
But there is no sound support so far and I really don't have any idea how to use alsa with wine.
So I thought maybe one of you could help me.
Thanks in advance.

Run winecfg and select the ALSA driver.

Wine and resolution issue

hello!
i have used archlinux for a year or so. everything went quite perfectly, but because archlinux is not multilib (i need it for my 32-bit blitzmax application) i installed gentoo last week. and because gentoo did not get me "that feeling" of arch, i went back and reinstalled arch...completely new. now i have got problems with 32bit-wine. i am using arch64 and never had such a problem. we are discussing that in the german forums without any solutions yet so i hope you could help me. i guess nobody else has this problem (because i did not read of it) so i must be an idiot and do sth. wrong .
ok, first, this issue does not appear when running native 64bit applications, like frozen-bubble iin fullscreen. so i guess it has sth to do with the lib32 packages...dont know. when i am running windows games iin wine (bin32-wine 1.1.17 or bin32-wine-suse 1.1.18 from aur) in fullscreen, wine changes the resolution as it has to be (640x480, 800x600 or whatever), but i can still use my mouse and move it to the right or bottom edge and can so navigate through the whole screen ( so i can see the rest of my gnome desktop for example). because of that my games are unplayable. it happens to morrowind, half-life (the old one, not the source-based) & half-life 2, so it not depends on one game. i tried running wine using xrandr resolution changer (changed in wine config) but the i cannot change the resolution from my native one (1680x1050), also not perfectly, because i want to play my games in 800x600 ^^.
but remember, it did work quite well two weeks ago :-\ (i will never change my distro again, i will never change my distro again... )
here is maybe stuff you will need:

but i also tried different other xorg.conf's. i had also this minimalistic one:

EndSection
but the i had problems changing my resolution in gnome (via gnome-display-properties).

i am using stable archlinux, no testing. as you can see i have got an nvidia-card.
i also tried removing .wine and also (!) .* and created a new user, but without any solution. everytime the same problem. i will try installing a 32bit chroot now, maybe it is working there.
i hope you can help me

[SOLVED] Playing sound simultaniously from wine and other applications

I'm using Pulseaudio with the following packages installed:
~> pacman -Q | grep 'alsa\|pulse'
alsa-lib 1.0.27.2-1
alsa-plugins 1.0.27-2
alsa-utils 1.0.27.2-1
lib32-alsa-lib 1.0.27.2-1
lib32-libpulse 5.0-1
libpulse 5.0-1
pulseaudio 5.0-1
pulseaudio-alsa 2-2
When running a wine application sound works, unless a linux application is playing sound. If that is the case, no sound is playing from the wine app until sound from the linux application stops (for example by pausing smplayer).
Is there any way to make sound work simultaneously from wine and native applications?
Other information that may be relevant:
Architecture - x86_64
Desktop - KDE
Wine application - BabasChess

Thanks
Was missing that package.

Wine and PulseAudio 5.0

Seems since PulseAudio updated to version 5, Wine and PlayOnLinux cannot seem to use the following library even though it exists in the directory.
ALSA lib dlmisc.c:252:(snd1_dlobj_cache_get) Cannot open shared library /usr/lib32/alsa-lib/libasound_module_pcm_pulse.so
Any ideas how to fix this issue, the library actually exists in that directory.

V1del wrote:@Daerandin I'm pretty sure its a different issue, you get SOME sound from timidity it doesn't not find the alsa lib and crashes a horrible death
Yes it might be unrelated. If I find myself with some extra time during next week I will see if I can figure out what the problem is with Timidity. As I said, Timidity actually works if I select my laptop's internal speakers as default sound output, instead of my USB headset. Munt from AUR behaves in a somewhat similar manner. It works as long as it outputs to internal speakers. Unlike Timidity, Munt stops working if I switch output to my headphones. The sound mixing simply stops immediately if switch output to USB headset. The relevant output in terminal is:
Scanning audio devices ...
MT-32 emulator ALSA address is: "128:0"
Scanning audio devices ...
Using ALSA audio device: default
Using audio latency: 2048 frames, chunk size: 512 frames
ALSA audio: Processing thread started
snd_pcm_writei failed: Broken pipe
ALSA audio: Processing thread stopped
ALSAMidiDriver: Connected application "129:0 DOSBOX"
When I have the time to sink my teeth into this I might pursue the matter in a seperate topic.
As for the PlayOnLinux issue, the file referred to in the error message is provided by lib32-alsa-plugins. This file is not affected by the Pulseaudio update, so I would assume there is some problem in how Pulseaudio interacts with the application.
Edit: PlayOnLinux devs just confirmed that since Wine does not support Pulse by default, they will not either. Now I happen to quite enjoy Pulseaudio so I will look into possibly workarounds while still having Pulseaudio. If I find a good solution I will make sure to mention it in this topic.

Beginners Guide sound installation -- OSS and ALSA objective features

Beginners Guide sound installation -- OSS and ALSA objective features needed
Hi,
In most wiki pages i just edit the things that i think need editing. Just look at the oss history
In all those cases i didn't really saw a need to ask for permission.. that would kinda destroy the wiki idea.
However i want to change the sound instructions in the beginners guide so i made a copy of the entire guide and the part that i changed there is: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Use … ling_Sound now i have a slight issue there. As you can see i'm in favor of OSS and because you can spot that it's not objective. Now i would ask 2 things.
1. Could you all post your features of OSS and ALSA
2. Once that's done can i have permission to place that section in the beginners guide? that will also include removing the sound installation from the beginners guide which i already did in my version
My personal reason to do this. i've read this and am since then pro OSS and against the ALSA/PulseAudio combo. i think that combo needs to get out of linux (most notably Fedora and Ubuntu) ASAP. and oss needs to go back into the linux kernel
Thank you for your time,
Mark

I'm an alsa/pulse user, so I'll give a bit of the 'other side'.
Alsa/pulse
Pros:-
network sound
advanced connection of sink/source (including merging sinks)
bluetooth support!
highly supported by existing apps, either through directly supporting Pulse or through its alsa plugin (you should not need to recompile properly-written apps which do not assume they should write audio data directly to hardware, I think I only needed to recompile mpd on my system)
Cons:-
Setup isn't the easiest. Can't comment vs OSS4 because I haven't tried it
OSS4
Pros:-
Everyone seems to say sound quality is better. I guess that's because they're comparing it with dmix alsa. Use pulse with alsa and you should not notice any difference in sound quality though.
Cons:-
Most apps nowadays default output to alsa. Meaning OSS plays them using an alsa plugin.
USB support is admittedly skimpy.
EDIT: Having read the sound article you referred to, my only comment is that the writer really has it in for Pulse... 3 seconds latency, where'd he get that from? I use pulse for audio recording (when I'm lazy to fire up JACK) and while there IS latency, its definitely in the ms range.
Thanx for the input

If you don't know, please don't put in wiki, this could cause unnecessary problems. As for the mms section:
If your stream sounds ugly in totem like it did with me then you could try to play it with another codec like ffmpeg (mplayer). That "fixed" the issue for me. This will not fix the issue that somehow pops up in gstreamer when playing MMS streams but it will give you the option to play it with good sound quality. Playing it in mplayer is simple:
# mplayer mmsh://yourstreamurl
Could you fix this? ffmpeg is not a codec . Also define ugly, and what is somehow?
markg85 wrote:Thanx a lot for your feedback. i will certainly use it when i make more edits.
As for the things you didn't know. As soon as i fully understand how i can get a microphone working in OSS i will add that to the wiki as well. Unless you already know it.. in that case, feel free to add it.
For the mic, I did get mine going. Can't remember just how I did mine (sorry, think I had to disable one of the inputs), but do remember to prevent it from passing through the speakers had to disable "Misc Microphone".

For libflashsupport on the same page you linked it clearly states:
# Flash V9 and V10 require libflashsupport to output sound via OSS. Typically a 32-bit version of the library is required.
# Flash V10 has a 64-bit version which requires a 64 bit libflashsupport.
Also i tested it with and without libflashsupport. On archlinux (x64 running here) there most certainly is a need for libflashsupport when you want to have sound in your flash. And yes i tested the archlinux OSS version and the mercurial version (running now) bith need it installed manually! On my pc sound in flash didn't work without it but did with it. So, no not removing from the wiki as it's needed. But i see you removed it for me! please do NOT do that if you didn't even verified it. I use flash 10 x64 and i need it!
As for the ffmpeg "codec" changed it to backend.
And i did get the microphone working near perfect: http://www.4front-tech.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=13192
Now for some news you all might like.
On my school i need to do an investigation to whatever i want and i'm heavily thinking about investigating the pros/cons of alsa compared to oss (or oss compared to alsa). That investigation will take from monday next week till next mondey till friday 23 of oktober. In that investigation i'm going to do some in depth look of alsa and oss and that will include the usability as well.
Following up on that investigation i will spend another 8 weeks on my school making a volume control application that can be used with alsa and oss and easily expandable with other sound systems. The goal of this is to make one sound application that can manage (in the first place) alsa and oss. oss is going to be implemented and alsa is probably going to be dummy implemented because it's likely way to much for me to implement both.
Before you get to exited, both projects (investigating and making the application) are just made up today and i just don't know if both will get accepted by my school. I asked one teacher and he liked the idea a lot and could potentially have a value for the sound management under linux. Once i do get this started i will involve the community (YOU!) with this since this project can't be done without the community specially the investigation.
And once i start and have something to tell/ask i will blog about it on http://blog.mageprojects.com

And this idea already got dumped. read more a few posts down or click: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php? … 34#p612634

Wine and xrandr

I'm trying to run some games with wine, but everyone shows the same problem when I try to run it in fullscreen.
For instance if I run Starcraft or Fallout 2, terminal says:
fixme:advapi:SetSecurityInfo stub
fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),0,0x32f420,0x00000000), stub!
err:x11settings:X11DRV_ChangeDisplaySettingsEx No matching mode found 640x480x8 @0! (XRandR)
err:x11settings:X11DRV_ChangeDisplaySettingsEx No matching mode found 1680x1050x8 @0! (XRandR)
err:x11settings:X11DRV_ChangeDisplaySettingsEx No matching mode found 1680x1050x32 @0! (XRandR)
So I've found out that xrandr only has one mode:
Screen 0: minimum 2960 x 1050, current 2960 x 1050, maximum 2960 x 1050
default connected 2960x1050+0+0 0mm x 0mm
2960x1050 50.0*
As you see, I have a dual monitor setup on nvidia card, and I configured everything with nvidia-settings.
So my question - how do I add more 'modes' to xrandr.

Since this is a problem which many have even today, im posting this GREAT solution
http://linuxgamingtoday.wordpress.com/2 … g-in-wine/
and mods, i hope this is not considered 'necroposting the ONLY solution', im sorry if it is.

Wine and directsound 3d

I have a problem with wine, I have enabled hardware sound with winecfg but I have errors anyway when I start games with wine, errors say that hardware acceleration is not enabled and wine will use HEL instead. I can't post the errors cause now i'm in an other computer, anyway someone could advice me? I'm playing starcraft 2 with wine and it has very low fps, with windows 7 is better.
thank you

Ok this evening i will be on my computer and i'll do my duty . I was wondering only to know if i have to something special to enable it...

Pulseaudio only listing dummy and ALSA only listing PulseAudio card

I messed up and I messed up bad. I was attempting to fix a popping/cracking noise on my microphone that was particularly annoying in skype. Along the way though, exposed after a reboot, Pulseaudio only lists dummy output and ALSA only lists PulseAudio as card. I am unsure of what broke my setup. I used this guide on the wiki
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Sk … -bit_OS.29
as well as this one.
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pu … _recording
It was moderately effective but there was still a popping crackling so I continued. I followed the directions in
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=155804
which were
rm /var/lib/alsa/asound.state
alsactl restore -P
I also did
rm -r ~/.config/pulse
I may of messed up the ALSA configuration along the way but I don't recall how (my memory and bash_history are failing me).
I ran alsa-info and the output is available here
http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=6e9dc … fc0241570b
Is there anyway to blow away my current (and broken) and regenerate a fresh one?
My motherboard is an Asus M5A99FX Pro R.2 with a realtek C892 soundcard. I use the analog output and microphone.
I use GNOME and have PulseAudio installed.

[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 compiled this again two-three days ago, and am seeing good effect in EVE in particular, with an nVidia 660, both with and without bumblebee.
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.

Wine and crossover and anyu other vs vmware

whats better in performance
vmware or wine and etc
i am talking about games
on what software it will run faster

To play relatively new games, Cedega is by far the easiest way. It requires a subscription fee, or you can compile it for yourself, and get a few less features. It's worth the fee if you consider yourself a gamer, as it just streamlines the whole process.
Games will play underneath apps like Wine still, but it can be difficult for modern games, and can require lots of workarounds. I only play games occasionally, and when I do they're pretty old (Starcraft, warcraft, doom, etc) so wine is more than capable to suit my needs.

IndexOf - difference between Win and Linux encoding

Hello folks, wondering if someone could put me on the right track over this little problem with porting a java app to Linux...
I have a nice little program, developed on (the latest) JDK under windows which reads a custom file format, locates the second occurance of the substring 'PNG', ignores everything before the character before this PNG (hence the -1 below) and saves the remainder, which is now a bog-standard PNG image. The first 'PNG substring always occurs within the first 50 bytes (hence the 50 below) and the second around the 2kB mark. Here's the line that finds the location of the second 'PNG' in the file loaded into strFileContent:
location = strFileContent.indexOf( "PNG", 50 )-1;All is well compiled and run on windows, say file 'test1.xyz' produces a value for location of 2076 and saves a nice PNG called 'test1.png'.
When I haul it over to Linux (Ubuntu 9.04) and lo, location comes out as 1964 for the same file, and of course the file is no-longer a PNG because there are an extra 112 bytes on the front end. Running the windows compile of the code or a fresh Linux compile makes no difference.
I'm suspecting Win and Linux Java count, perhaps, line endings or some such differently, perhaps have to check an encoding. I'd appreciate any pointers on correcting this to work on both platforms (ultimately I'm trying to appease a Mac user, but don't have a Mac to play with at the moment).
Cheers,
K.

I'd appreciate any pointers on correcting this to work on both platforms (ultimately I'm trying to appease a Mac user, but don't have a Mac to play with at the moment).The immediate cause of your problem is probably that Windows uses a 8bit encoding as the default (probably some ISO-8859-{noformat}*{noformat} variant or the Windows-bastardization of it), while Ubuntu uses UTF-8, which has a varying number of bytes per character.
The much more important underlying problem is that you're trying to treat binary data as if it were text. A PNG image is not text. Handling binary data in Strings (or char[]) is a sure way to invite desaster.
You must convert your code to handle InputStream/OutputStream/byte[] instead of Reader/Writer/String/char[].

Systemd alsa-store and alsa-restore in the wiki

Hi. I searched for information on unmuting sound on (gdm) startup. I found the suggestion to enable alsa-store.service and alsa-restore.service in archlinux wiki. But my system says, they have no install section. I will search for more information on this topic and suggest a change, when i am enlightened. But perhaps you are already and can mage some changes to that section.
Cheers

You are right to wonder. It seems to have been the german version of the alsa wiki entry. (https://wiki.archlinux.de/title/Alsa#So … rte_testen)
Those items are activated by other means, then? The store, if you want to save your setup manually and the restore unit will automatically set audio on reboot, then?

my graphics card is Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics Controller, and maybe should install a module for it works with wine.
The window where you start all options configuration appears to me, but when I go to Play THPS4! showed me the error. The version of my wine is wine-1.1.8. I don't know if I have to install any shape or form over any other option in winecfg.
thanks

Can you try it on a desktop comp using arch and wine instead? Maybe it's a graphics problem? Anyway, I've checked the min req. and it's quite low..
Please check this site if your game is supported or if ever you want to play another game in the future.
