Wait, which scanner, exactly?

I got my Epson scanner working fine in linux without wine.

(Although, back in 1998 or so, I seem to recall using Wine to run a scanner. Drivers were simpler back then.)

For what it's worth, there's no particular reason to use winebuild for user apps. You're better off using mingw, I think. See e.g. http://www.mingw.org/wiki/sampleDLL On Ubuntu, here's how to build that: sudo apt-get install mingw-w64 i586-mingw32msvc-g++ -c -DBUILDING_EXAMPLE_DLL example_dll.cpp i5...

For what it's worth, I think Visual Studio 2010 is somewhat close to working. As Dimesio wrote, Visual Studio 2012 is blocked by http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17273 / http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17195 which is a hard one. A couple people have tried hard, but nobody's come up with...

Hey Moose,
looks like this is fixed in Wine 1.7.1, give it a shot!

I've updated that FAQ entry to point to our 64 bit instructions, too. It's not *that* bad anymore.

Sounds like they're using embedded chrome framework or awesomium now.

Somebody might try running the chromium unit tests on wine again
( see http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20353 for last time I tried it),
maybe that would show the problem in a simpler context.

This looks interesting:

fixme:msvcm:CrtImplementationDetails_DoDllLanguageSupportValidation stub

You're using Wine's msvcm, which is rather stubby. Native would be better.
Which winetricks are you using? Recent ones set that to native when you do 'winetricks vcrun2008' etc.

An earlier line looks troubling, too:

(process:23808): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_slice_set_config: assertion `sys_page_size == 0' failed

You're probably running into

I don't have any good workaround.

That error message shows up in http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21708#c37 ...

Yeah, 'winetricks dotnet40' is how to install .net, once you have a 32 bit wineprefix. Is it THERMADATA™ LOGGER SOFTWARE Version: 3.4.16 from http://www.thermoworks.com/software/ ? Also, which hardware do you have? I assume it's the MkII with the usb cradle one? Chances are somewhat slim, since Wine...

Try wine-1.6? And if you still have trouble, attach a log.

"winetricks dotnet40", maybe?

Tomoyo looks like a good native sandbox.
It would be interesting to see Wine running in it.
I haven't tried it, don't know what configuration would be needed.

Somebody needs to figure out how the game is trying to access those disc images. Presumably a WINEDEBUG=+file log would be of interest. (Attached, not inline, please. And I probably don't have time to look at it myself :-( And attaching the log isn't likely to be as good as a wine dev trying it out ...

You'd have to ask the Mono team about .net 4.5 compatibility. Following Microsoft's lead is not a prescription for success for those who would replace it. Watch projects like Android, iOS, Steam, and Ubuntu; they don't emulate Windows slavishly. Wine will continue to evolve and expand the set of win...

It's probably the wineserver hitting some limit.
How many unix fds does it have open?

Find its pid, then do
ls /proc/NNNN/fd | wc -l

Last I heard from Maarten, his patch worked well except for the minor problem that
32 bit gstreamer doesn't co-install on recent ubuntu with 64 bit gstreamer, or something,
due to upstream dependencies not being set up for that yet.

BubbaB11, what game are you trying to play?

Did 'winetricks xact' help?

You should also ask whoever made the wine packages you're testing, maybe they forgot to do something.

Also be sure to use a recent version of wine and winetricks.
If you still have trouble, please give the versions of wine and winetricks.

The patch was a little hard to use because it wasn't an
attachment. I verified it still applies, and attached
a clean version of it to that bug.

You can just remove empty .o files, that usually solves that problem.

Try this, it's the easiest way to build a 32/64 bit wine on Ubuntu:

You should probably file a new bug.
