Wine Problems

Whenever I try and run a Windows executable, it takes a LOOOOOOOOOONG time.

When I try it in the command line, I get this:

andy@compy386 ~/VG/ $ wine GenericWiiPatcher.exe  
^Cerr:module:attach_process_dlls "winspool.drv" failed to initialize, aborting
err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization for L"Z:\\home\\andy\\VG\\GenericWiiPatcher.exe" failed, status c000013a

(Yes, control C'd it, wouldn't get the error any other way)

Is there any way to fix this error?

Re: Wine Problems

Might be best to try the wine forum as it may be a bug. Try an older version of wine. What is "GenericWiiPatcher.exe"? Sounds dodgy

Re: Wine Problems

GenericWiiPatcher patches the main.dol of a Wii disk.

Like change language, change video mode, remove some errors, etc.

And I'll try wine-git from AUR. Screw older versions, go not-released-yet versions!

Re: Wine Problems

I'm having the same problem with winecfg and some other programs. Were you able to find a fix?

edit: It looks like installing and starting CUPS fixes everything. Strange.
