unable to configure wine (SOLVED, sort of...)

#1 Post by nodcero »

Hi,

it's my second week in Linux, I'm on puppy 2.15 CE from a live CD and seem to have been able to install Wine 0.9.22 after a bit of a singing and dancing routine using the DotPup-thingy.

Next step, apparently, is winecfg, and that does not, what it's supposed to do but returns
sh-3.00# winecfg
wine: creating configuration directory '/root/.wine'...
/initrd/pup_rw/usr/bin/../lib/../bin/wineprefixcreate: line 171: 5738 Segmentation fault "${WINELOADER:-$bindir/wine}" rundll32.exe setupapi.dll,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 128 wine.inf
wine: wineprefixcreate failed while creating '/root/.wine'.
sh-3.00# wineserver: could not save registry branch to /root/.wine-GvNoHa/system.reg : No such file or directory
wineserver: could not save registry branch to /root/.wine-GvNoHa/user.reg : No such file or directory
which now leaves me a bit on a loose end.

Any suggestions?

Hmmm, I wonder what I _did_ search for, that thread must have slipped through my finely woven net.

Yup, with the new version .28 it worked. I still run into minor troubles, along the lines of
wine: glibc >= 2.3 without NPTL or TLS is not a supported combination.
It will most likely crash. Please upgrade to a glibc with NPTL support
but the application I need, or better, want to run does fine, so I am happy.

Thanks a lot.

I run into the same problem with wine 0.9.28
I run 2.16 beta and have the wine sfs loaded via bootmanager.

Where can I find the glibc with NPTL?
