I'm having some problems getting my wine installation running Windows apps. I'm trying to run a couple of commercial stats packages - Minitab and Genstat: Minitab will run OK but not do graphs, Genstat won't even launch properly.
I've read the FM; any pointers to other tutorial material on Wine would be appreciated. Best would be any advice on what might be wrong with my set up and how I could fix it.
I'm running debian GNU/Linux 'mixed' (i.e. bits of stable, unstable & testing), dual-booted with Windows 2000 "Pro". The version of Wine I have is 20030115 (I used the .deb). When running wine I have the Windows partition mounted umask=000.
With the default config settings I wasn't getting anywhere, so I've edited my config file like this:
[Drive C] "Path" = "/mnt/" "Type" = "hd" "Label" = "/home/ivan/.wine/fake_windows" "Filesystem" = "win95"
[wine] "Windows" = "C:\\winnt" "System" = "C:\\winnt\\system" "Temp" = "X:\\" "Path" = "C:\\winnt;C:\\winnt\\system;X:\\;Y:\\" "Profile" = "\\Documents and Settings\\ivan"
* minitab
Gets into an expect deadlock when Minitab tries to produce graphs:
...
err:win32:_EnterSysLevel (0x40a07e18, level 2): Holding 0x40ab3984, level 3. Expect deadlock!
err:win32:_EnterSysLevel (0x40a07e18, level 2): Holding 0x40ab3984, level 3. Expect deadlock!
err:win32:_EnterSysLevel (0x40a07e18, level 2): Holding 0x40ab3984, level 3. Expect deadlock!
...
* genstat (running from windows or locally)
I get the splash screen and an empty window then everything freezes:
ivan@debian:~$ wine c:\\g541stu\\bin\\genwin41.exe When you are running with a native NT directory specify 'Profile=<profiledirectory>' or disable loading of Windows registry (LoadWindowsRegistryFiles=N)
<genstat splash screen appears now>
err:winspool:WINSPOOL_OpenDriverReg win32 style printing used with 16 bits app, try specifying 'win95' Windows version
err:winspool:AddPrinterDriverA Can't create Drivers key
err:winspool:WINSPOOL_LoadSystemPrinters Failed adding PS Driver (127)
fixme:class:get_class_ptr reading from class of other process window 0x10025
<genstat server window appears now> <on Ctrl-C: empty 'c:\g541stu\bin' window appears>
Best wishes
Ivan
