Continuum And WINE

[Gannon8]

I am using KUbuntu Gusty and WINE .9.57.

When I follow the Quick Stars instructions and run Continuum.sh, I get this error message:

wine: failed to initialize: /usr/local/lib/wine/ntdll.dll.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I have tried installing the windows continuum with Wine and I get the same effects as running it on windows with antivirus or some other program "Continuum Doesn't Like."

Any advice?

The second line of code gave me this error:

root@********:~# apt-get install build-essential flex bison xlibs-dev x11proto-gl-dev libgl1-mesa-dev fontconfig libfreetype6-dev fontforge checkinstall
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package xlibs-dev is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package xlibs-dev has no installation candidate

Also, I heard this method takes like 4GB of space. Is this true?

Lol, no one knows?

You'll probably have more luck posting on the Server Help forums, as I know there are a few people who have used WINE but don't visit this forum.

Hi Gannon8!

It's been a month so still not sure if your having the same problems.

Let me know whether your active and I'll post a solution and same goes for anyone else having problems with Continuum on Linux.

just post the solution...

[Gannon8]

I am alive, just been busy. Just post the solution like rootbear said.

So candid.

We'll here's the solution.

 

1. Delete everything you have done

2. Download platform independent version 0.9.38 - http://downloads.sourceforge.net/wine/wine...mp;big_mirror=1

3. untar package to installation folder

4. open this up and save it as cont32.diff http://www.geocities.com/vivieka/cont32.txt

5. ensure cont32.diff is in the wine installation directory

6. use patch to modify the installation type in command-line cat cont32.diff | patch -p1

7. the script will return an equivalent to an "ok" response

8. check dependencies of the installation with ./configure

9. the configure script will return dependent packages needed prior to the installation

9a. if as you mentioned before one was in use or has one source directory, install a fresh version of the dependent package then ./configure again to check reliability

10. once the ./configure script returns a valid or "ok" response, ./make the installation

11. change to su or chroot access and type make install

 

tell me once this is done.

So essentially what you are doing is not using the package from getcontinuum.com for Linux with the .sh extension.

This should be deleted and burnt.

 

1) This will require a fair amount of disk space

2) This is proven to have worked on solaris and suse distros

Attaching referenced file cont32.diff for future reference.

cont32.diff.txt

The diff file needs to be updated with different versions of wine and needs to be built from source so you can apply the patch before compiling. Disk space usage is still minimal on any system with more than 4 gigs.

I'm working a on an installer for wine. watch this space. Edited May 30, 2008 by doc flabby

There is also a patched Wine deb that will be going up on the Continuum-wine site shortly.

[Guest Guest: Username01]

Why complicate things with an installer?

Delete everything that specifically mentions installing Continuum on Linux.

Thanks for responding. I kind of dumped this thread because no one was posting the last time I looked at it. I will try and do it after I get my graphics driver working.

So did you just copy kernel32 from a patched version of wine?
