Debian 8 (Jessie) and Wine was built without Vulkan support

Post by facePlanted »

Hi so I'm using wine-staging 3.7.0~jessie from the official repository:
deb https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/debian/ jessie main

the symlinks are correct and "wine --version" gives me "wine-3.7 (Staging)"

then i try to install dxvk:
WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.dxvk" wine wineboot
wget https://github.com/doitsujin/dxvk/relea ... .50.tar.gz
tar -xvf dxvk-0.50.tar.gz
cd dxvk-0.50/x64/
WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.dxvk" ./setup_dxvk.sh

when testing vulkan with "vulkan_test.exe" I get: "Vulkan drivers not installed" and those messages on the CLI:
0030:err:vulkan:get_vulkan_driver Wine was built without Vulkan support.
0030:err:vulkan:wine_vk_init Failed to load Wine graphics driver supporting Vulkan.

libvulkan1:amd64 and libvulkan1:i386 are both installed, I'm running Nvidia drivers version 384.111 and vulkan games on Steam like Mad Max and F1 2017 run fine.

help ?

There was a bug filed, https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44775, but the last comment in the bug report says it was fixed in the Ubuntu packages as of 3.6.

It sounds like your only problem is with DXVK, which is a separate project, not supported here. If you get those error messages from plain Wine (no DXVK), leave a comment in the bug report saying it is still a problem for the Debian Jessie packages. If those errors only appear with DXVK, ask for help on their support channels.

Hi dimesio thanks for the reply and sorry for the late reply, I've now changed my preferences and subscribed to the topic, so I get email notifications on replies :)

Yes I remember reading that thread and it looks like it was fixed on Ubuntu, I think that the problem is similar on Debian 8 Jessie,
I've tested now without DXVK:

rm -rf .dxvk

WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.dxvk" wine wineboot
wine: created the configuration directory '/home/user/.dxvk'
(...)

WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.dxvk" wine /home/user/Downloads/vulkan_test.exe
000b:fixme:winediag:start_process Wine Staging 3.7 is a testing version containing experimental patches.
000b:fixme:winediag:start_process Please mention your exact version when filing bug reports on winehq.org.
0030:err:vulkan:get_vulkan_driver Wine was built without Vulkan support.
0030:err:vulkan:wine_vk_init Failed to load Wine graphics driver supporting Vulkan.

and the 'vulkan test' gui writes: Vulkan drivers not installed.

It would be super cool to have the official packages for Debian 8 Jessie recompiled with Vulkan support.
I'll comment the bug report now, thank you.
