Installer-text is gibberish
Installer-text is gibberish
Hello. I am somewhat new to Linux, love Wine, but am experiencing some difficulties.
When opening a setup.exe for a windows-app, usually a game, the text in the installer menu looks like this: http://imgur.com/a/39rVd
This does translate to launcher-menus aswell, as I installed TES4 Oblivion with menus's looking like this and had to cancel my attempts.
Im running a low-graphics laptop made by Intel, integrated graphics, 64-bit system, my main Wine-version is 1.6.2, what other information do you need? Thank you.
PS. I've tried running the the setup.exe's from terminal, is that information you need?

Re: Installer-text is gibberish
Try installing corefonts with winetricks.
Re: Installer-text is gibberish
Thank you for a quick reply, corefonts are installed. I keep getting a "You are using a 64-bit WINEPREFIX. If you encounter problems, please retest in a clean 32-bit WINEPREFIX before reporting a bug" even if I run winetricks from a prefix/virtual drive(playonlinux) that I know is 32-bit. Does this matter? Am I running it wrong? I right click the folder and enter "winetricks".
Re: Installer-text is gibberish
PlayOnLinux is not supported here.
If you are getting that message from winetricks, then you are running it from a 64 bit wineprefix. You have to set the WINEPREFIX variable in the terminal when you run winetricks, same as you would for running anything else from a non-default wineprefix. http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#wineprefix

Re: Installer-text is gibberish
Thank you, I will try again.
Re: Installer-text is gibberish
Am I doing this right? Im entering into terminal adam@adamlaptop /media/adam/IL-2 Sturmovik $ WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=/home/adam/wineprefix wine setup.exe after Ive run winetricks with the same variable(?) and installed nearly all fonts, winetricks runs without the "You are running in 64-bit, try 32-bit"-waning, the setup-installer launches but still with the garbled text
I will try some DLLs and report back if successful, thank you.
/media is the directory for my setup.exe, and wineprefix is the name of my wineprefix-folder. Any ideas?
Btw, thank you for the help. =)

Re: Installer-text is gibberish
You're doing it right.
Post terminal output from running the installer.

Re: Installer-text is gibberish
I asked for terminal output from running the installer, not winecfg.
The backtrace you posted on paste.ubuntu.com shows you were installing to a 64 bit wineprefix. When using a wineprefix other than the default, you have to specify it every time you run something from the command line. If you don't, Wine will use the default, ~/.wine.
FYI, the crash in that backtrace is in atksgt.sys. That's the Tages driver, a copy protection driver that doesn't work in Wine.
You should also upgrade Wine; 1.6.2 is very old.
