Preload error

Post by whonea »

When I open any wine session I get the following message in the console:

ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/lib64/libv4l/v4l2convert.so' from /etc/ld.so.preload cannot be preloaded: ignored.

Is this significant? The 3-4 apps I have installed seem to work (with a few hiccups during installation) but I have no idea of what this error message implies.

Google the whole error message.

Remove that library preload from /etc/ld.so.preload. It will cause you all sorts of problems.

Thanks.
For some reason removal induces a string of additional messages of the form fixme: etc. Is there a doc that describes this and the various un-implemented functions? As you might guess, this is my first foray into wine for a long time so I need to get back up to speed so I don't flood the forum with simple questions.

Again, thanks. Looks like a place to browse instead of being a pest here.
