Problems running Team Fortress 2 on Arch Linux

Post by D.Cent »

Hi,

I recently switched from OpenSUSE to ArchLinux.
System information:

Wine: 1.5.13 (also tried 1.4.1)
Architecture: x86
GPU: NVidia GeForce 310M (512 MB RAM)
GPU driver: nvidia (proprietary)

Running Steam and installing TF2 works flawlessly, however, if I start TF2 and start or join a game, I get the following error:

"fixme:dbghelp:elf_search_auxv can't find symbol in module"

After this error, I can hear a sound loop and after five seconds, the game crashes.
The problem occurs on PlayOnLinux installations and even without it.
I used winetricks to install the corefonts - wine-gecko is also installed.
3D acceleration outside Steam is working fine.

So, what is the problem with TF2? Before switching to ArchLinux, everything was fine with this game.

I didn't specify any, so I guess with 9.0?

According to that log, you are running Wine 1.5.9, not 1.5.13. You need to upgrade. You also need to install winbind. If it still doesn't work in plain Wine 1.5.13 (no POL) with winbind installed, post terminal output from that.

Thanks for your help!

I just copied my TF2 wine prefix from my other openSUSE PC to my laptop, installed winbind and now it's working! :D
