ArtRage

[drdoolittle]

Hello!

I have been using ArtRage4 with Wine for over a year now, previously flawlessly with SolydX. I have just switched back to Linux Mint 17, as Solydx is no longer being maintained.

Where the program ran perfectly before, I'm now experiencing a debilitating lag while painting. I have installed the latest version of Wine, along with q4wine.

Does anyone have any ideas as to what could be causing this problem? It's difficult to find anyone using these types of programs under Linux.

TIA

Wine version? If it's not the latest development release, upgrade. If the problem persists, post terminal output from plain Wine (Q4Wine is not supported).

Hello! Thanks for your reply!

I am running Wine 1.6. Below is the terminal output:

I've always gotten the fixme:wincodecs error: it outputs that as long as the program is running. It has never seemed to affect the operation of the program, though.

Thank you in advance for any insight!

Try upgrading to the latest development release.

[drdoolittle]

When I attempt to upgrade to the latest development release, I get this error when running ./tools/wineinstall:

checking build system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
checking host system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
checking for gcc... gcc

Continuing to work on the problem while waiting on further help, I added
the ubuntu-wine ppa to my sources list and installed wine1.7.33-amd64. I
then ran "sudo apt-get build-dep wine1.7.33-amd64". From the command
line I then executed "wine <path-to/ArtRage.exe>", then
"<path-to/ArtRage.exe>", and finally "winedbg <path-to/ArtRage.exe>",
and in every case get the following output:

I have not had time to use ArtRage much since then, but it appears that
there is less lag than I was experiencing. However, there is still lag,
and I do not know how to proceed from this point.
