Wineboot Just Hangs

Post by fergatron »

Hi,

How do you know that wineboot executes properly. I'm having audio issues with my wine. I play WoW and sometimes my audio will just kick out. I usually have to reboot the computer (Fedora 8) because I don't know how to get it working again. I see wineboot - but nothing happens. I even ran the command in a terminal and it just hangs - it looks like it's not finish executing. I'm running wine 0.9.58

This is old version. There were few problems fixed with wineboot since that version.

They're up to 0.9.60 - it looks like i have to compile from source - Fedora doesn't have an update available yet. Can i just do an install on top of this one or do i need to remove wine first then install the new one?
