    Did the "move files" method work for you or something else?

    Re: wine, winecfg system crash

    I seem to be having the same problem. Just cropped up when I installed Gutsy on a new system. Biostar K8M800 Micro AM2 MoBo with AMD Sempron 3400. Problem same for 64bit and 32bit distro. When running winecfg the system hangs. Only thing that works is sitting on the power button to shut it down. Moving wineoss.drv.so made no difference. I have no idea what it means, but running strace winecfg hangs with: clone(child_stack=0, flags=CLONE_CHILD_CLEARTID|CLONE_CHILD_SETTID|SIGC HLD, child_tidptr=0xb7cf06f8) = 6039
    waitpid(6039,

    Apparently waiting for some process to finish that never does?

    It seems to get as far as creating a file ~/.wine-?????? where ?????? is a 6 letter alphanumeric, different for each time I run winecfg.

    Does anyone know if a wine bug report exists for this? I can't seem to find one that matches. The key (for me) is the complete lockup of the system, with the only option a power reset.

    Any help, suggestions, questions, appreciated

    If you have a soundcard try removing it to do the winecfg.

    That's what fixed it for me.

    Some old problem here. Latest wine (.51) and onboard AC97 soundchip and onboard via graphics. No dice removing the audio files.

    Would there be any other possible workaround?

    I'm on a fresh install of x86 Gutsy, no special video driver installed.

    Re: wine, winecfg system crash

    I cannot physically remove my soundcard, since sound is integrated on the motherboard. I checked device manager and it reports a VIA8237 AC'97 Audio Controller. The manual says it has Realtek ALC655/658 sound. Windows XP device manager reports a Realtek AC'97 Audio for VIA Audio Controller. Checking the hardware there is indeed a VIA VT8237P plus and a ReakTek ALC655 chip on the board.

    I tried installing the Realtek Drivers from the RealTek site, but problem is the same. Is there a way that I can somehow disable the sound drivers in Ubuntu to try and isolate the problem?

    Again, I also tried moving /usr/lib/wine/wineoss.drv.so with no effect. Any suggestions appreciated, particularly for how to isolate if it is sound chip related....

    Thanks!

    Oh yeah, I am (trying to ) run wine ver .51 as well dbc

    Aha... so if I have a trouble with my graphics in wine, I just remove the graphics-card
    (sorry... couldn't resist )

    Most users (including myself) only need wine to play games, and Guild Wars without sound is rather boring imho.
    I found a .asoundrc file that did the trick for me, some thing about making a master for alsa, I admit I don't understand this file in detail, but it does the trick on my UbuntuStudio 7.10 and wine from the repros.

    So if your soundcard use an ice1712 chip, you can try pasting the following into a file, name it .asoundrc and save it in your home-dir :

    pcm.ice1712 {
    type hw
    card 0
    }

    ctl.ice1712 {
    type hw
    card 0
    }

    pcm.!default {
    type plug
    slave.pcm "softvol"
    }

    # softvol - Volume Control
    pcm.softvol {
    type softvol
    slave.pcm "ice1712"
    control {
    name "PCM Volume"
    card 0
    }
    }

    # OSS to softvol:
    pcm.dsp0 {
    type plug
    slave.pcm "softvol"
    }

    ctl.mixer0 {
    type hw
    card 0
    }

    Question Re: wine, winecfg system crash

    I have a similar configuration as skyout. K8M800 MoBo, AMD Sempron 3600.

    And my wine also crashes/hangs/freezes/you know what i mean
    At first I thought it was my install of gutsy but searched the forums and found that I wasn't the only one.

    Anyone work it out, please let us know

    I'll be keeping an eye on this thread.

    To fix it, I just removed my sound card, and Wine worked perfectly.
