winecfg won't launch

Post by Dukenukemx »

I'm running Ubuntu 20.04 and have winehq-stable installed and when I type the command nothing happens, it just sits there. It was working a week ago, but I have no idea what happened. Winetricks does work though. Are there any logs to see what's happening?

Maybe there is an error in the default ~/.wine Wineprefix.
Does the following command work?

Code: Select all

WINEPREFIX=~/wine-test /opt/wine-stable/bin/wine winecfg

Yes it does. Now if I just type winecfg alone it just works. So that means it's fixed or this breaks when I reboot?

Interesting...
The command creates a new Wineprefix (a fake Windows) in the wine-test directory.
Just to make sure your Wine installation is alright.
Now you say only running winecfg works. This is a "shortcut" of: WINEPREFIX=~/.wine wine winecfg

So we can conclude: your Wine installation and your Wineprefix are OK.

If the winecfg command doesn't work after a restart post the output of:

Code: Select all

dpkg -l | grep wine

This happened to another PC I have and that command isn't doing anything. Not sure what's going on here. It just stays there doing nothing.

Ok it works on this machine, but it's weird. So apparently I either need a newer kernel or it doesn't like AMDGPU driver on GCN 1.0 hardware. I can't use kernels 5.9 or newer but I can remove this line from grub GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=" radeon.si_support=0 radeon.cik_support=0 amdgpu.si_support=1 amdgpu.cik_support=1" and boot using 5.9 kernel and Wine works once again. I can't even.

Ok it stopped working again. Something is seriously wrong here with Wine. I have three Linux Mint 20 machines, all using various different hardware, but they all eventually can't run Wine. They are all running Wine-Staging from the official PPA. If I play around long enough, like switch kernels or uninstall or reinstall Wine then maybe it'll work, but then it just stops working again. This is what I get out of Wine in Terminal.

Ok, this time I'm certain I know what the problem is and have it fixed. The issue is that when I update or install wine-staging from the wine repository, for some reason it also installs wine from the Ubuntu repository. So I had Wine 6.0 and 5.0 installed at the same time, in two different locations. I had to remove Wine 5.0 and reboot the PC and now everything works fine.
