I'm running KDE Neon, which is current as of today (build on ubuntu 20.x). I'm afraid that the i386 compatible wine layer doesn't seem to work so well out of the box on neon. I could not get any x386 applications to install, but I did find this, which uses the wine-hq repos instead:

I got wine to install this way, but there is a problem. Networking does not work. None of my applications appear to be able to hit the network. When I use the cmd application in wine, the strange thing is that it resolves the IP address of a DNS name. But, pings are always dropped. I have tested connectivity in iexplore as well, and find that it too does not get to the Internet (or local network). I have disabled any local firewall while testing this. I found the setcap solution on the wine page, but it does not fix the problem.
Code: Select all
setcap cap_net_raw+epi "$(readlink -f "/opt/wine-stable/bin/wine-preloader")"
Code: Select all
setcap cap_net_raw+epi /opt/wine-stable/bin/wine-preloader
Here is my ipconfig from "wine cmd":

Any ideas on how to get wine networking working properly? What am I missing here?
Thanks.
