LM21.2 Winetricks problems (can't install .exe)

[Codesound]

LM21.2 Cinnamom_x64
Hi,
I follow these steps to install Wine-staging:

Code: Select all

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 
    sudo mkdir -pm755 /etc/apt/keyrings
    sudo wget -O /etc/apt/keyrings/winehq-archive.key https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/winehq.key
    sudo wget -NP /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/dists/jammy/winehq-jammy.sources
    sudo apt update
    sudo apt install --install-recommends winehq-staging

wine-staging now is installed into my system, But I need the "vcrun6sp6" file: for install it, I use winetricks.
Yesterday I installed it with the following commands:

Code: Select all

   sudo apt install winetricks
    	sudo winetricks --self-update  
	winetricks
    	winetricks vcrun6sp6

Today, it does not work:

Now, my system will crash when I try to install a windows software. I also lost MONO and Jecko

please! Help me...... How can I fix this? Thanks for now....

Can I assume you did a fresh install of Linux Mint between "yesterday" and "today"? After all, Winetricks is no longer installed.

Code: Select all

Check if you install the winehq-staging package and/or try to start winetricks with:

Does this also happen with the built-in wine programs? If so, please post the terminal output.

This is often an indication that the GPU drivers are not fully installed. Make sure you have the 32-bit part installed as well.
Often libgl1 and/ or libvulkan1 or one of their dependencies are missing.

Code: Select all

sudo apt install --install-recommends libgl1:{amd64,i386} libvulkan1:{i386,amd64}

[Codesound]

Hi, thanks for your time dedicated to me....

I reinstalled wine, after these two commands:

Code: Select all

sudo apt install --install-recommends libgl1:{amd64,i386} libvulkan1:{i386,amd64}
sudo apt install libnvidia-common-535

when I check for updates, this is the situation:


but, in old winetricks installations mono was automatically installed: not now. And when I try to install one free plugin (this plugin in the past required Jecko), this is the output:

Besides the NVIDIA GPU, do you have another video card?

[Codesound]

Hi,

I tried to reconfigure everything. I reinstalled every thing, but wine-staging is having problems with video drivers. Does not start. At this point I try to reinstall Mint from scratch. I think there are problems of this kind due to the flatpaks installed in my system-they often update nvidia packages on their own. But again, that's what I think. Until yesterday, wine-staging was working properly.

Thanks in the meantime

the "wineprefix window" is opened, I try to install a .exe file but winetricks doesn't start and one error message is showed: also I have never seen mono installation ... please help me

[jkfloris]

Was the ~/.wine folder created by winetricks?

Are you still getting the nodrv_CreateWindow message when you start Wine "normally"?

Code: Select all

wine notepad
# and
WINEPREFIX=~/wine-test /opt/wine-staging/bin/wine notepad

If you still have the right version of the wine-mono file in ~/.cache/wine, it will be installed automatically and you won't see a message about it. You can check that with:

Code: Select all

wine uninstaller

Hi and thanks!

Was the ~/.wine folder created by winetricks?

This folder is created during the installation of wine

Are you still getting the nodrv_CreateWindow message when you start Wine "normally"?

Code: Select all

wine notepad
# and
WINEPREFIX=~/wine-test /opt/wine-staging/bin/wine notepad

one problem here, the terminal output is:

the strange thing is that, over time, I have installed wine-staging several times in this pc and it has always worked. This time it doesn't want to work and I don't know why....
Another thing is: the driver? all is up to date...... again, I don't understand....
thanks again

You have two GPUs. Configuring both GPUs properly in Linux can be tricky.

Probably you can start Wine with:

Code: Select all

VK_ICD_FILENAMES=/usr/share/vulkan/icd.d/intel_icd.x86_64.json wine winecfg

and try:

Code: Select all

export __NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1
export __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia
export __VK_LAYER_NV_optimus=NVIDIA_only
export VK_ICD_FILENAMES=/usr/share/vulkan/icd.d/nvidia_icd.json

wine winecfg

immediately opens the winecfg window! MAGIC! Probably my problem is the second GPU? Now I try to deactivate this hdw in the BIOS....
The fact remains that I do not understand why I always installed wine without all these problems. To say: I didn't even know I had a second GPU!

Now I'm looking for a way to turn off the second GPU which (probably) is the one present in the PC motherboard (I don't even use it).

Thanks jkfloris for now.... Good Bless You!!!
