Yeah, I hadn't updated the `lib32-nvidia-utils` package, which obviously contains some 32-bit compatibility libraries. Problem solved!

Ah, 64 bit games are working in my 64-bit prefix. But the 32-bit prefixes are giving the error.

Hmm .... maybe it's something to do with the 32-bit drivers/Nvidia packages.

Hi, I did a full system update in Arch Linux a couple of days ago and now I am getting the following error when I try to run games in Wine: $ env WINEPREFIX="/home/sandbox/.wine32_test" wine ./nwmain.exe 0024:fixme:ntdll:NtQuerySystemInformation info_class SYSTEM_PERFORMANCE_INFORMATION 00...

@jkfloris: thanks very much for clarifying, that's really helpful!

Bump! No-one knows?

I thought I had seen a user guide page before somewhere that explains how it works, but I haven't been able to find it.

It seems likely, unfortunately.

For that game, the recommended minimum GPU for laptops is an Intel HD 5000, which looks like it is at least 3x more powerful than the one you have:

'your-prefix' should be the path to your Wine prefix, i.e. the folder that contains the Wine installation you are using for the game. Usually, it would be something like ~/.wine32 . Note as well that it should be an absolute path (so you'll need the full /home/USERNAME/ etc.) Thinking on it some mor...

If your GPU driver, mesa and Wine are all up-to-date, then I don't think there's a lot more you can do, in terms of 'improving' the performance of OpenGL. If you're not getting good results, you could try DXVK , which uses the newer Vulkan API instead of OpenGL. (I'm not sure how easily available it...

Usually the resolution is controlled by in-game settings, or a specific setup tool that is provided. Which game is it?

Add it to your ~/.bashrc script. Then the variable will be set automatically, whenever you open a terminal window.

Hi, I'm a bit confused about how 'large address aware' (LAA) mode works in Wine, for 32-bit applications. I'm trying to play the game Race Driver: Grid in a 32-bit prefix and I seem to be getting a lot of crashes (both with and without dxvk) due to 'memory allocation errors'. I suspect the issue mig...

Well, i'm afraid i don't know then :/ Add that on your report, that may (or not) be a Wine bug Let's hope you, or someone else, have luck next time Ok, I will create an AppDB report and I will link that in your bug report. but there are usually some games going on when I log on ¿So are you able to ...

Great you could run :3 That connection issue may be a Wine bug, or system-side issues too. I've also noticed, while downloading their client, that their servers are pretty unstable... At least on my side, i don't know how it is on your side. ¿Do you have any firewall service? Sometimes it's the fir...

I don't have this game to test it properly, so please try it and submit an test report on AppDB ;3 Hi, coming back round to this: I have managed to get the dowonline client application to run by upgrading my Wine to version 7.1 and installing .NET 4.5. The client now opens and I can see the chat an...

Sorry, also: what do you mean by a 'WoW64' prefix?

Got it working on Wine 7.1 on a WoW64 wineprefix by using this workaround: winetricks dotnet452 Also, update your Wine, your version is very old I don't have this game to test it properly, so please try it and submit an test report on AppDB ;3 Awesome!

Hi, I am trying to run an application, dowonline.exe, which is a fan-made replacement of the online multiplayer server for Dawn of War. The game Dawn of War runs fine for me in Wine, but I have not been able to get this MP server application to work. The dowonline application is available here and i...

This is very helpful, thanks very much! I wasn't even aware of the Wine uninstaller ...

Hi, I am a little confused about Mono. I know there are different ways to install it, per the info on this wiki page.

I am just wondering, is there a simple way to verify if Mono is installed and active, for a given prefix?

Usually, if you run from the terminal and you are missing a critical library, there would be a fairly clear error message saying so (along the lines of: "libraryx.so can't be found"). Have you been able to successfully run other 32-bit games with your wine setup? For 32-bit, you need to ma...

Hmm, ok. What exact command are you using to run the game? What I would try, if I were you, is forget Lutris (for now) and create a new 32-bit wine prefix (on your SSD, if desired), with: $ env WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX="[desired path]" winecfg Then, copy the game installer file into the '...

To play the videos you can use 'winetricks' to install wmp9 and directshow. (This requires the game to be installed in a 32-bit prefix). winetricks -q wmp9 directshow Hey, that works! Thanks for your help. I suspect it was the 'qasf' component for the .asf video files, as I had wmp9 and quartz inst...

Hi, I have a couple of ideas: Firstly, it seems that you are trying to use a 64-bit wine prefix. Witcher 1 is quite an old game and I'd be surprised if if were 64-bit. It is almost certainly 32-bit, in which case you will need a 32-bit wine prefix and the necessary 32-bit Linux libraries to go along...

It appears not to be an issue with gstreamer. The videos play fine if I run them from the command line with:
