foobar2000: black window only

Post by karlo »

Hi guys,
I have been running foobar2000 for years through Wine. However I changed my OS to Arch Reborn (Budgie) and I think at first I had foobar running on the new system. But since some update (I think) all I get when running foobar is the top bar of the window, displaying the name (foobar2000) and under that a black window. When I move the mouse into the black window, the mouse disappears, so it's more like a black hole. Does anybody have an idea what could be the cause?
Thanks in advance!

Often there are clues in the terminal output of what is going wrong.
If you need more help, post the terminal output.

Now this is really strange: executing the program via terminal seems to have done the trick, the program is now up and running. This is the terminal output:

Code: Select all

$ wine foobar2000.exe 
006c:err:ole:start_rpcss Failed to start RpcSs service
0024:fixme:heap:RtlSetHeapInformation 00000000 1 00000000 0 stub
0024:fixme:win:RegisterShellHookWindow (00010050): stub
0024:fixme:win:SetGestureConfig (00010092 00000000 1 0031F244 12): stub
Thank you for the advice, problem seems to be solved :D
