After updating to Wine 0.9.30 , winecfg was crashing my Nvidia X server -- fixed by getting the latest from Nvidia (legacy so it is the last 6 series update). However, I am still having the same problem initializing Wine. I have tried: - 2.6.18 kernel - 2.6.19 and full update - SELinux turned off -- problem persists. - wine 0.9.29 from tarball and rpm, and 0.9.30 from tarball - removing and reinstlaling msttf fonts - restarting computer and restarting xfs Each time, winecfg hangs the first time it is run and creates .wine-xxxx where xxxx is a temp dir. It is not using CPU cycles so it appears to be hung. If I kill it, move the .wine-xxx dir to .wine, then run winecfg, I get a window frame which just displays the info behind the window (other windows and background, no text, no icons, nothing else). I have the same problem when trying to run any other wine applicaiton. Note that when I had 0.9.2 (?) on my box, winecfg worked fine. Only after I did a yum install wine with the old wine still in /usr/local/*, did the problem start. Can someone point me to log files or command switches I can use to try to diagnose this problem? I read of some others having similar problems but never found a resolution. I basically have very litte to go on myself. I've spent two nights on this and am getting nowhere.....

Any ideas? I have wine working just fine on my FC6 x86_64 box. I suggest you use the wine RPMs from extras. Here is what I have (yes, this is a 64-bit install, wine is only available 32-bit): $ rpm -qa | grep wine wine-capi-0.9.29-1.fc6.i386 wine-twain-0.9.29-1.fc6.i386 wine-esd-0.9.29-1.fc6.i386 wine-0.9.29-1.fc6.i386 wine-tools-0.9.29-1.fc6.i386 wine-jack-0.9.29-1.fc6.i386 wine-core-0.9.29-1.fc6.i386 wine-ldap-0.9.29-1.fc6.i386 wine-nas-0.9.29-1.fc6.i386 wine-cms-0.9.29-1.fc6.i386 I am not sure what is going on with your system. Is there anything in any logs that might give more clues as to what is happening? I have had some font issues on a 32-bit CentOS machine where no text would display on anything running under wine. This sounds different, though. I don't know. Are there any more details you can provide us? Are you using AIGLX? Have you tried without it? What about SELinux? Just trying to rule out possibilities... Jonathan -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
