[Soved] user32.dll.WIN_GetPtr, aborting

Post by Scyth »

Hi!

I just have a problem, which I can't solve on my own. I really hope that somebody will be able to help...

When I'd like to start an application (winecfg, regedit, program) the following error message is returned (in this case: winecfg):

Code: Select all

  14 0xb7e149b7 wine_switch_to_stack+0x17() in libwine.so.1 (0x00000000)
wine: Call from 0x7e31b0b0 to unimplemented function user32.dll.WIN_GetPtr, aborting
wine: Call from 0x7e31b0b0 to unimplemented function user32.dll.WIN_GetPtr, aborting
I found something at:
http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-pa ... 17534.html
...but I really, really, really don't know what to do with that (because I can't find the listed files).

I have a nvidia-card (Geforce 4), which is integrated in the motherboard...

Thank you

Scyth

Your Wine installation is busted.
Remove it, search for any "*dll.so" files and remove them as well. Then install latest Wine version for your distro.

Thank you for your fast reply.

I already deinstalled it several times (and I removed the .wine folder located in the /home/'user'/ directory as well). Are there other files/directories which I have to remove too (I didn't find a clue in the documentation).

That is NOT what I told you.

"Search" means you use whatever you know how to use and search for _ALL_ files like "*.dll.so" in your _ENTIRE_ disk and remove them.
