Failed to load wine, winecfg, wineconsole, etc.

[ivorious]

Hopefully somebody has info on this topic.

I have just installed Wine on OpenSuse 11.1. I've tried to install MSOffice 2003 but when double clicking on setup.exe nothing happens. I also tried by typping "wine /media/MSOfficeCD/setup.exe" but I get this error

X Error of failed request: XF86VidModeExtensionDisabled
Major opcode of failed request: 135 (XFree86-VidModeExtension)
Minor opcode of failed request: 6 (XF86VidModeGetAllModeLines)
Serial number of failed request: 78
Current serial number in output stream: 78

The same happens when I type winecfg or wineconsole.

I am really lost, could somebody help me??:?:

Thnx in advance

Few things:
1. Remove/comment from v4l2convert.so preload from /etc/ld.so.preload
2. Make sure the VidMode extension is loading (check /var/log/Xorg.0.log)

Hi everybody!!
I just restarted my user session and was able to run winecfg. I achieved to run Office 2003 installer but it suddenly shuts down just before starting to copy files to hard disk, I also received a message from the installer sying something like "We sorry but MSOffice could not be installed".

That surprised me so I downloaded Firefox installer. The installer ran succesfully. The problem came when attempted to execute FireFox. I did this and got this message:
~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox> wine firefox.exe
fixme:actctx:parse_depend_manifests Could not find dependent assembly L"Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls"
fixme:system:SetProcessDPIAware stub!

Vitamin,
anyway I looked at the files you suggested.

1. Remove/comment from v4l2convert.so preload from /etc/ld.so.preload

ld.so.preload does not exist on my opensuse installation.

2. Make sure the VidMode extension is loading (check /var/log/Xorg.0.log)

This one is present at the log file and according to it is VidModeExtension is loading just fine..

Well, any ideas about this new problem??

Looks like you may have to install .NET 2.0.

The process is available by searching the forum.

What Wine version? If it's anything newer then wine-1.1.16 then you hitting a known bug - http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17600

As a work around - downgrade Wine version for installation. See HOWTOs on AppDB.
