And that's why you should try out Bottles, because it's not just plain Wine. If 
you succeed with it, you can check the source code, what exactly they are doing 
that enables better success rates. E.g. they offer some sort of a desktop to 
run programs inside. In a few cases this helps solve some issues.

No specific programs in mind, but MS Office could be an example.


Afaik, this can only be possible with Crossover, my guess is they use some 
closed source components that allow to run even MS Office or Adobes Suite. But 
for everyone else, if you don't use dirt old versions of these programs, it's 
just impossible to run them as they are very stubborn about not to run on 
anything but Windows and macOS, no matter how hard you try. There are YouTube 
videos of people showing off that they succeed with this, but of course they 
never share how. So either these are just fake or they found a way to tell 
which dlls the programs are missing and just copied them from an existing 
Windows installation. Who knows. So you are better of trying apps that have an 
actual chance of ever being able to run on Linux. Maybe a good starting point 
is KeePass. Officially only supports Windows, but with explicit support for 
Mono, and Debian even has a package that sets up the Wine environment to run it 
inside.


As Mario pointed, one example would be to have a modern web browser with DRM.

DRM is already present in various browsers, just not necessarily the highest 
level. But question is if that can even be emulated. Because if it was that 
easy, there would be guides for that.


Many games are only released as Windows programs. Fortunately Steam has

True. That's what Proton is for, with a mix of DXVK and the sorts.
  


At this stage I am only testing the concept, to see what is possible, what 
works, and what does not work.


That's what Wine's AppDB is for: https://appdb.winehq.org/



  To see what I need to understand so I can configure Wine for any given 
Windows application.

That's just a naive dream, and it's highly questionable if that will ever be 
possible, most likely not. There are just too many programs depending on bad 
design decisions of Windows, like allowing just any terribly written Kernel 
level driver to do whatever the hell it wants. Valve is only this successful 
with Proton because they e.g. hired Collabora to develop and upstream APIs for 
the Linux Kernel to handle system calls Linux doesn't and will never support. 
Better stick to what's known to be supported, unless you want to develop for 
Wine itself. If you want to run a program with it, most likely others have 
tried that already, so you don't need to start from scratch. And you don't need 
to waste your time with things that will never work.

I had hopes using Wine was easier than I have found it to be. Your comment 
above has merit. 

There has been so many versions of Windows over the years, so many different 
programs with specific DLL and API needs. In part, I understand the challenge 
of having a system emulate another OS.

I ran dual boot for a time, and I still have one Windows 10 PC for running 
games but have not used it for some time now, like you suggested, I only run 
programs that can run on Linux, if they don't run in Linux, I do not use them. 

Others I know would still like to run some particular Windows program.

>

I wanted to know "how to configure and use Wine to run a Windows program". No 
specific programs in mind, but MS Office could be an example. I also used 
Windows versions of Scite, Putty, WinSCP as test examples, only because they 
are smaller programs and I am familiar with using the programs in a Windows 
environment. 

As Mario pointed, one example would be to have a modern web browser with DRM.

Many games are only released as Windows programs. Fortunately Steam has

Iexplore I was referring to, is a program that comes with Wine, for the 
purposes of testing that your Wine installation has some level of basic working 
configuration for running Windows programs.

I think this is probably wandering off-topic, but I'll toss it out there...

When in Rome, do as the Romans do. That means you run Windows programs
on WIndows VMs, and Linux programs on Linux VMs. Don't try to use Wine
to run Windows programs on Linux; and don't try to use a POSIX
subsystem to run Linux programs on WIndows. Mixing and matching is not
worth the aggravation.

You never stated what problem you are trying to solve. I'm guessing
there's a native Linux replacement for it so you don't need to wine
and iexplore.

To all who replied, Thanks.

Sadly after further testing I still have very little success with Wine.

When I installed WineHQ's Wine Installation, Gecko and Mono were able to be 
installed. I noticed a rpcss.exe (from memory) in Taskmgr. This at least 
allowed me to display the initial web page in Wine's Iexplore. But sadly it did 
not help me in successfully  installing the current Windows versions of Firefox 
or Chrome, or other programs I was having challenges with.

I also tried PlayOnLinux without any success.

The "Time vs ROI" for this endeavour suggests to me, that for now, I should 
just use Linux native programs. 

Regards,

George.

I think there is a bit more to it. Imagine now you have 30 flatpaks,
everyone bringing in its own snowflake version of... uh... libxz [1],
say, and suddenly there is a backdoor. Sixteen of the startups providing
the flatpaks have gone bust or were bought up by $BIGCORP.

Now, what.

That would be my approach too. Of course, $VENDOR offering the thing as
a .deb is no guarantee either. I know of one which comes with two complete
copies of PostgreSQL server, because... why not. So I try to stick to
distro-native packages as far as possible.

But hey. Everyone's entitled to ruin their health howewer they like :)

I'm with you, here.  AFAIK Debian packaging does not in and of itself
come with any sort of "security checking", tho.  So, if there are
security benefits (personally, I do believe there are) they are mostly
indirect result of the packaging process, e.g. in the presence of extra
eyes, or in the need to investigate the details of the licensing, or the
need to follow the rules about where files are placed, or in the
avoidance of vendoring, or in the "slow" pace of stable releases, ...

For that same reason, I try to stay away from things like Snap/Flatpak
which seem to be a way to skip all that "process" and run effectively
black-boxes, thereby preventing you access to the usual transparency
benefits of Free Software.

It's been a long time since I last used Wine (FWIW, it was to run the
Windows version of Emacs, to try and reproduce a bug locally ), but
IIUC the software you intend to run via Wine will probably be what I'd
usually describe as "proprietary crap" a.k.a black boxes, so it seems to
be one of the cases where the use of Snap/Flatpak should not make things
much worse.

Hardware vendor distributed installation files usually should not be used, 
especially not over the distributions packages and especially not when it comes 
to GPUs. Nvidias own drivers are infamous for having terrible installers. If 
you need them, install them the way your distro recommends. So if you'd install 
hardware vendor packages but not other third party packages, you should really 
think about your decisions, as they don't make any sense.

At least not how Debian works. As the package's developer, nobody would stop 
you from being the maintainer of the Debian package in the official repo, but 
in general everybody can step up for that job. So a package being in Debian's 
repos is no guarantee for anything, especially not if not maintained by the 
core developers. But of course, maintainers need to stick to a rule book too, 
if they don't, their maintainer status will be revoked and their packages 
removed. Also, that's why to use Flatpaks and not just some random .debs - 
including the ones from hardware vendors not really giving a fuck. With 
Flatpaks, you can easily see if it's maintained by the developer or not. Also, 
they are isolated and have quite user-friendly permission management. Of course 
no software is bug-free, but it's better than nothing. Especially when you 
compare Flatpaks with Debian contrib or non-free packages.



, the Distribution owner does some level of verification/validation that the 
package plays nicely with the distribution and other applications. Maybe even 
some security checking?

I wonder if anyone agrees with me, or not?


Good question, how far Debian goes here. The automated testing will most likely 
catch the biggest issues, but then that's irrelevant with universal formats 
like AppImage, Snap and Flatpak, as they don't really interact with other 
packages. And especially during the 6 months of feature freezes before a 
release, users on testing can very well tell how well all the packages work 
together and report bugs so worst case a package causing issues can be replaced 
by an older version that works better. Then again, that's irrelevant with 
universal packages too.

Now the security part is a good question. It's well known that Debian developers try to fix any security issues as fast as possible, especially in Stable, even doing backports themselves if needed. But I have no idea how far Debian goes with preliminary security checks, before packages reach stable. Also, due to Debian enforcing some sanity on packages, everything that should be a dependency in its own package will be made into one, no matter what the developer wants. And only having to patch one package to fix a security issue in many - think issues in OpenSSL and the likes - is always better than having to patch every single package using it. That's the great benefit of Debian over e.g. Flatpak, though Flatpak does move the most common dependencies into runtimes to achieve something similar. But it won't enforce this. But on the other hand, being containerized does decrease the need for some patches as the security issue may just be much more difficult to abuse, as an 
attacker would not only have to exploit it but also have to break out of the container. So it's all quite relative.



There seems to be way too many methods of packaging these days.

That's why AppImages, Snaps and Flatpaks where invented, it's just way too 
difficult to support them all. And with sane default behavior and 
containerization, Flatpak is by far the best of the universal formats.


I also think there are way too many distributions of Linux too, but if people 
have the time, I should not rail against them. I prefer to stay with as close 
to the original source distribution as possible, though I have yet to apply 
this to compiling from Gentoo Linux.

That's freedom - especially of choice - for you. But beyond the big distros, 
you should only touch the myriad of distros when you know what you are doing.

At one time in my IT career I was involved with package management and

definitely would have to agree with you "I guess Flatpaks isolation from the

You are correct, my choice does cause me to live without software that does not 
supported in Debian's package library. Though I do make a few exceptions.

I base my decision on a strange notion that Debian packaged software gives a 
better level of Security, which is likely misguided, but that has been my 
choice so far. 

I reserve the right to change my decision whenever it suites me, as I am about 
to try WineHQ's version of Wine.  ; )

Thanks for your reply and for making me explain my current reasoning in a 
(hopefully) better way.

This has nothing to do with maturity. Only with the existence of someone
willing to maintain it - and its dependencies if needed. They don't publish
it as anything else than a Flatpak as that's by far the easiest way to make
sure it works for everyone, and thus they don't officially support any
other packaging frameworks. And since they don't just support Wine but also
Proton, and games benefit a lot from the latest drivers and libraries, so
packaging it for more conservative distros would entirely defeat at least
half of its purpose. And I guess Flatpaks isolation from the rest of the
system can be helpful in other ways too.

So either learn to accept other packaging formats or learn to live with the
fact that you may miss out on a lot if you don't invest a lot of time
figuring out how to compile the software by hand.

Hello,

Absolutely no idea if it will help you solve your problem but the 
Archwiki has an potentially interesting tip for reverting the Debian 
default behavior:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Wine#Prevent_installing_Mono/Gecko

so, perhaps setting the WINEDLLOVERRIDES environment variable to 
something other than "mscoree=d;mshtml=d" (=e ?) could permit Wine to 
download/install internet explorer

I am now wondering what "is intentionally disabled" might actually mean. I am 
hoping that it means that Debian's wine will not automatically install 
Gecko/Mono, and not mean that even if you go ahead and manually install these 
packages they will not be used. But the effect seems to be the later.

"...this year, running debian 12.2 "bookworm" on the same laptop and using the

"Consider using a sandboxer such as firejail to sandbox wine, such a

Implementing Firejail sounds like a good project for later on.

"apt install fonts-wine ttf-mscorefonts-installer"

At one time I believe I also installed directly from WineHQ repository too, but 
after not much success, relating to 'no idea what I am doing' as far as setting

Now you have a point there. To be honest, there was only one Windows program I 
personally wanted to run, and it is non-essential anyway (and it works in Wine 
without changing the Wine installation). 

PlayOnLinux is running one of the programs I have been testing with, but my 
thoughts is that if PlayOnLinux can, then so should Wine. I just want to know 
how to use Wine.

Mostly I only install software that is available in the Debian or Arch 
repositories, and I cannot find Bottles in the Debian Repository. I do not use 
snaps or flatpacks. Maybe I should but I don't.
Hopefully one day, Bottles will mature to the point it can go through the 
Debian packaging system. I appreciate Debian's packaging systems.

need to do some heavy work to maybe get something to work, take a look at

How to use Wine, How to get Gecko to install and work

2024-06-29 Thread George at Clug
Hi,


Does anyone know of really simple but comprehensive instructions on
how to use and configure Wine, that you can send me links to?


Does anyone know how to solve the below issue:


 $ wine iexplore

(Of course in iexplore the web page "https://www.winehq.org/; is

This is just one of many examples of how really don't know how to
configure Wine once it has been installed, and I have run "wine

I have found many people reporting this issue on the Internet, but
never an answer that resolves the issue for me.

That's why I think it's time to change to amd64 before it is
completely dead.

IIRC those packages will still exist for backwards compatibility for

will be available.

Yeah, I know that. Until then I will try to get the most out of this 
i386 installation as-is.


In any case, I managed to get rid of some 250+ amd64 packages that came 
with pretty useless wine (5.0.3-3) installation from the bullseye repo. 
After deinstalling wine & related software (in Synaptic), I ran apt-get 
update, apt-get upgrade, and apt autoremove. It freed cca 1GB.


After reboot, all was clean, so I decided to go with wine via WineHQ. I 
followed their published procedure for bullseye installation, and after 
a while it ended up with wine version 9, which for now seems functional.


Will update the list in days to come ...

It is about time i386 is killed off. 64bit processors have been in
production for over 20 years now. I am all for getting the most out of
hardware but considering you can get a Intel Core2 Laptop with 4GB of RAM
for less that $100 refurbished there is no real reason to keep i386 around.


As long as you have a i386 kernel, you can't use amd64 software on it.

That isn't an upgrade, and it isn't a supported operation.

Some people have *done* it, but it's very much at-your-own-risk.

I wouldn't recommend it, certainly not for someone who's operating with
less than a full understanding of the situation.

It's dying, I would say.  Not all the way dead just yet.

The next release will not offer an *installer* for i386, but upgrades
from Debian 12 i386 to Debian 13 i386 might continue to work.

That bears its own risks.  Support for i386 is likely to be less than
full.  Things will probably start breaking and not getting fixed, more
and more often as the years roll on, until it's officially declared dead.

According to documentation I found in the internet, it is possible to
upgrade a Debian system to the amd64 architecture.
Maybe do that, but do a full backup before.

i386 is dead for Debian, the next release won't be available for i386.

As long as you have a i386 kernel, you can't use amd64 software on it.

I am not sure what do you mean by "install that architecture". I have been
using i386 versions of Debian, and I do not plan to reinstall it now just
because the CPU may allow that. So instead, I ask whether it was expected
and properly when Synaptic installed lots of 64-bit stuff during Wine

If your system is i386 only, amd64 software can't run on it.
Remove that architecture from dpkg.



Wine in bullseye, which way to go?

2024-02-01 Thread Miroslav Skoric

Hi!

As I have some Windows software (for ham radio) that does not have 
adequate Linux versions, I wanted to install Wine and some related 
packages from the bullseye repository (wine, q4wine, winetricks, 
playonlinux, etc). By the way, I had Wine with buster earlier, and most 
Windows software worked more or less flawlessly, but I deinstalled all 
that software and Wine before I upgraded buster to bullseye.


This time I was puzzled when noticed that Synaptic installed lots of 
amd64 packages even though my system is i386. Also, it removed some 
packages, and also reported few errors or like. Finally, no Windows 
software wanted to run, instead q4wine returned "Exit -1" or like.


See bellow some details for particular packages installation:

El PLayOnLinux és un assistent amb perfils d'instal·lació per a Wine.
Inclou un perfil per a Garmin Express, la qual cosa vol dir que algú ja 
s'ha barallat abans amb les dificultats d'aquest aplicatiu, i ha 
automatitzat la recepta per a Wine mitjançant un perfil de PlayOnLinux.


Altra gent documenta les seves experiències aquí:

Hola, Jordi,

Si tens prou espai de disc i memòria tens l'opció de fer servir Windows en
una màquina virtual.
Amb libvirt, per exemple, prèviament a l'arrencada de la màquina virtual
amb Windows, li pots assignar un dispositiu USB extern connectat (Garmin)
amb visibilitat des de la màquina.
T'ho comento per tal que no hagis de reiniciar Debian per iniciar l'USB amb
el Windows Live.

Cordialment,
Josep

He estat mirant això del PlayOnLinux i rés, Només és un altre
instal.lador del wine, del qual en sorgeixen altres errors, prefereixo
fer-ho a ma.

De moment sembla que el wine em funciona però no és capaç d'accedir als
dispositius usb, només ho pot fer com a unitats de disc, tal i com ho
fa amb el Garmin. He pensat que en lloc d'instal.lar el virtualbox i
trobar-me diversos problemes, millor fer un usb windows live ja que no
és del meu interès sortir massa del programari natiu de Debian.

Exportar una clau pública a un fitxer, com a còpia de seguretat i per a

Aleshores, la clau privada en qüestió ha deixat de ser privada.

Marc, et recomano MOLT que generis noves claus pel compte de correu-e 
(el que no és de Gmail), i aleshores revoquis les claus que estaves fent 
servir.


També tingues en compte que els missatges xifrats que haguessis rebut 
amb aquelles claus ara exposades, han deixat de ser indesxifrables.

Ei Marc, has escrit amb un xifrat (suposo que per a la clau d'en Jordi), 
però amb còpia a la llista.
Com que la resta de subscriptorxs de la llista no tenim la clau PGP de 
desxifrat d'en Jordi (així ha de ser), doncs veiem un correu amb un bloc

Si, i ha anat força bé. Ara estic encallat però amb la gestió que fa wine amb

perquè no existeix /dev/ttyUSBx sinó alguna altra forma de arribar al 
dispositiu.

Odd Wine issue with nvidia-tesla-470-driver

2023-01-23 Thread Jeremy Hendricks
I found an odd issue on Debian Bookworm with nvidia-tesla-470-driver
installed and the i386 arch installed as a secondary arch (dpkg
--add-architecture i386). When installing wine it tries to pull in
nvidia-390 packages and breaks. Has anyone seen this before or is there a
workaround? I suspect nvidia-tesla-470-driver doesn't have as many packages
in i386 as amd64 does -or- there is a dependency in wine that doesn't
expects the normal nvidia-driver and not nvidia-tesla.

Additionally also the games prior not working with nvidia legacy driver are

It looks for me, some additional package forced the crash, but I can nor say, 
which one. It is no need, to look at, because wine in debian/stable is rather 
old (it is version 5, whilst the actual version is now version 7). I suppose, 
debian will update this package soon, as even for debian/stable version 5 is 
too old IMHO.

running outdated software (was: crash with wine and nvidia-driver)

Am 13.10.2022 um 18:43 schrieb Hans:
> Hi folks,

> maybe someone got into the same problem as me and can help.

Well, i cannot help. Sorry

But i am very used to running outdated software, as i am living the old
recipe to "never change a working system". The only thing, that i am
doing is to separate different configurations into virtual machines,
where i still am able to run Windows XP (as an example). Intentionally i
am accepting to fall back in time, if the alternatove is to deal with
buggy software or combinations thereof.

Only recently, i discovered, that one of my long-living problems that
had me stay with a 6 year old software combination is no longer present
in a more recent software stack. In order to find out such changes, i
HAVE TO check the functionality of more recent releases from time to
time, which - in order to ensure proper isolation from my main system -
requires a second bootable copy of the main OS.

Long story short: I suggest you create alternatives in order to check
more recent software. Because not only your situation tennds to evolve
into a more and more unique corner case, but also you lose touch to the
cutting edge of developers, who would not be interested to fix past
problems, as there is practically no merit in doing so.

Another example of mine: I did stay with firefox-esr from 2 years ago,
in order of being able to use plugins, that had not yet been transformed
to the new mozilla doctrine. But after some time, i found another
combination of plugins fulfilling my needs just as well as the old ones
did, so i decided to jump to a more recent version of the fox. It is not
such a bright idea to be stubborn and sticking to the older versions,
among ther reasons: because i would have turned onto the only one
(world-wide) using that specific software stack, thus having a unique
fingerprint and killing anonymity...

I suggest not clinging to your specific software combo too frenetically.

But i am sharing your sort of trouble more or less regularly and thus
feel with you.

best of luck, DdB

My own experiences with wine were not all that pleasant. Nowadays, i try
to avoid it as best as i can, nuked all the places, where i had
integrated it into my regular system usage.

crash with wine and nvidia-driver

2022-10-13 Thread Hans
Hi folks,

maybe someone got into the same problem as me and can help.

I am using a laptop with a graphic chip in the intel-cpu and an extern graphic 
card from NVidia. The nvidia chip is an NVS4200M and running with kernel 
module *legacy-340xx*

Yes, I know, NVidia and also Debian says, it shall be *-legacy-390xx-*, but 
390xx will not run. 

340xx is well running, and "primusrun glxgears -info" is telling, the kernel 
is loaded and it is the nvidia kernel/module.

But that should not be our problem.

My issue is, that starting ANY wine application (like a game or something 
else) using "primusrun wine bla.exe" is turning ito a segfault.

As I am not believing, this is related to the game (as ALL games are 
crashing), I believe, it is related to a systematical error in the 
relationship between wine and nvidia-driver.

Please note: Running all these applications without primusrun or optirun, so 
using the internal graphic chip, everything is running, but slow.

I read in many forums, but whenever thisissue appears, the writers are always 
pointing to a special game or application, but (maybe) did not recognize, this 
is a general issue.

The system running here is debian/stable and I know, the wine version is 
rather old (version 5, the actual one is version 7.x), but I personally 
believe, this should not amtter, as the nvidia driver 340xx is old, too.

Note beside: 390xx and 340xx can not be build any more, as the kernel-header-
files or the compiler had changed since 5.10.12,  some files are missing. 
There is already a bugreport related to this by me.
(Luckily I have a package as backup available).

I do not know, where to look any more and how to discover, what is happening. 
Tried starting using strace, but this did not show me any usefull output.

So, I hope, someone might got into the same issue, too, and could fix it.

Any help is welcome.

Thank you very much!

Best regards

Hans

The term "[signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/winehq-archive-keyring.gpg]" is 
somehow not been used by debian and makes this problem. After deleting this

Hello!

Opened a bug report against Wine, because I was not sure about what
package was the culprit. #1006725

It was reasigned to libz-mingw-w64 and a few moments ago I downloaded
the updated package from the repository.

Everything works fine now. Thanks to everyone who made this possible.

Just because I mentioned installing DLLs by means of winetricks: beware 
of using winetricks in this situation. Obviously it installs DLLs which 
are not compatible with the current wine packages. 
After trying this I had some Win-programs coming up nicely, or even 
better than before the Debian Sid updates but went haywire when they 
started their own update routines of data.
Trying to resolve this and by using wintricks for some DLLs I now 
managed to have the programs start and appear as running applications 
but they are not showing any windows in X11 - duh ...

On Stable:
apt-file search zlib1.dll
libterralib-doc: /usr/share/doc/libterralib-dev/examples/Debug/zlib1.dll
libz-mingw-w64: /usr/i686-w64-mingw32/lib/zlib1.dll
libz-mingw-w64: /usr/x86_64-w64-mingw32/lib/zlib1.dll

Seems both 32 and 64 bit dll are included in the package.

I'm looking for the exact package that contains zlib1.dll but I can't
find it. Libwine depends on libz-mingw-w64 but the zlib1.dll there is
not the same as the one wine puts in the drive_c directory. The one in
drive_c directory is a PE32 DLL and the one provided with
libz-mingw-w64 is a 64 bit one.

I confirmed zlib1.dll needs libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll and this one needs
libwinpthread-1.dll and... I can see a DLL hell in advance.

Where does this zlib1.dll come from? It appears everytime wine creates
a drive_c directory, even for a new user.

Strange, I get:

/usr/lib/gcc/i686-w64-mingw32/10-win32/libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll

I had hoped that the Wine packages would refer to that, but unfortunately 
that is not the case.

Installed gcc-mingw-w64-i686-win32-runtime (and gcc-mingw-w64-base
because of dependencies) but still not working.

These packages install some DLLs in /usr/lib/gcc/i686-w64-mingw32 so
win32 programs can't load them there. Also note libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll is
not provided with these packages.

I'm pretty sure the problem is the Wine DLL files were built without

Not entirely sure, but I think this is the issue:
More and more Wine DLL files are built with mingw. 
The libwine package already depends on libz-mingw.
Probably the 'gcc-mingw-w64-i686-win32-runtime' package should now be 
installed as well.


Does the program work when you install this package?

We are talking about closed source here, don't we? I don't see any 
straight forward way to know how the programs have been compiled except 
reverse engineering. Not going to do that. Contacting the provider of 
the Windows-Programs IMHO would not help either because "it works on xxx 
version of MS-Windows".
If the problem is a bug or changes in Wine (6.0.2 is a development 
version - no?) Wine-HQ would be the right place to ask, I think.
Either way debian-users does not seem to be the right mailing list for 
this kind of problems.
Unless this is a packaging problem ("...repack..."?) but I don't know.

I can't help I'm afraid.

Hello!

Finding and placing missing DLLs into the Windows directory of Wine is easy.

I think the problem is the windows executables in wine have not been
compiled with the -static-libgcc option of MinGW, so not including all
these libgcc DDLs can be considered a bug itself.

But compiling it without -static-libgcc can be considered a bug also.

This is why I'm asking.

Hi Hello!

When I didn't find libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll at first, installing the other missing 
libraries by using 
winetricks I was able to start my applications at least.
Start with zlib1.dll - that is in winetricks.
Then copy the other libraries into the pertinent folders of your windows folder 
of your 
wine installation.
libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll can be found here

https://www.sts-tutorial.com/download/start/Mjc2NA==[1]
and libtiff3.dll can be faound 
herehttps://everydll.com/gnuwin32/libtiff3-dll/#download-dll[2]

After the recent update of Wine packages in Sid, some programs do not
run because of a missing libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll. They all worked just fine
with the previous version.

Agreed.



I recommend you select, with your users' concurrence, a suitable factory
refurbished business-grade laptop[1] from a major manufacturer. I have
used HP, but Dell, Lenovo, and maybe others probably have similar
programs. Refurbished business laptops are a bit costlier than new
consumer laptops with comparable performance, but they also are built to
a higher standard of reliability and come with significantly less
preloaded crapware. They also (HP experience here) may have useful built
in diagnostic tools and support software/firmware maintenance support,
and they come with a full new unit warranty; in my experience, any
defects are minor and cosmetic.


I've already talking to such a local vendor. I've bought several Lenovos 
from them and have observed how they interact with non-tech customers. 
Also, IIUC they can provide on customer site service.




For the use case you describe, I also recommend a service agreement, if
available, that provides pick up and delivery service. The HP ones
(presently $137 for three year coverage) are fairly inexpensive. While
they are unlikely to be used, I consider them worthwhile unless there is

Such equipment will come with preinstalled and configured Windows, and
current Microsoft maintenance support is quite good and relatively
trouble free. And when problems do arise, Microsoft or manufacturer
support is likely to be usable to resolve it; they certainly will be as
good as random WWW support for a home-brew OS and software setup.

Linux tools are undeniable useful in some cases, but will rarely be
necessary for a vanilla or nearly vanilla Windows setup. For those
instances where they are, it always is nice to have a bootable CD, DVD,

As a Linux user, on your own machine, absolutely. Again, you do need to

Microsoft's WSL2 is the closest you'll get. That and Debian are no cost

That requirement eliminates WSL2 from consideration.

If all they've ever used is Windows, leave it at that. Don't attempt
to switch them to Linux. It will be more trouble than it's worth. Get
them a laptop with Windows, clean the preinstalled and CPU
cycles eating background crap off of it, bring it up-to-date, and you're
done.

Unless they really NEED Debian or Linux, don't bother.

If you want to demo Linux just get one of the many "live" versions to
boot the system.  Then they can play with it without installing.  And
it won't do anything to their existing Windows install.

> Are there good FOSS or low cost VMs for Windows machines?

Windows has it's own VM.  Can't remember its name, but I'd recommend
VirtualBox instead -- https://www.virtualbox.org/ .  It's free and has
versions that run on Linux or Windows, among others.

Richard didn't write that, I did -- Patrick.

I use VirtualBox for my VM needs, but why would you need to: Google
Earth has versions that run natively on Windows, OSX and Linux or you
can run it in most any web browsers -- https://earth.google.com/ --
regardless of OS.

In all honesty, I wouldn't do that: don't force a dual boot on anyone that 
isn't an expert computer user. They could readily get 
confused / boot into the wrong OS. Better, in this instance, to buy a new 
computer with Windows and whatever office software
they might need and for you to learn enough to use Windows 10 or 11.

If you get Windows Pro, you could readily use Debian over WSL2 if you had to. 
On a new computer, don't take the risk of making it dual boot,
perhaps having to reinstall Windows, "voiding warranty" and creating a further 
rod for your back in support.

This is, perhaps, an unusual viewpoint to take - but I have been involved in 
trying to set up a special purpose
machine for someone who didn't appreciate the help that I was endeavouring to 
provide, queried costs and so on.
I ended up paying money out of my own pocket to fix items because I was 
guilt-tripped into it.

As a Linux user, on your own machine, absolutely. Again, you do need to know 
what you're doing this for and the limitations of Windows
 - it's something I have considered for folk who are predominantly Linux users 
but have to use Windows occasionally for work.

Microsoft's WSL2 is the closest you'll get. That and Debian are no cost options 
- but in that instance, you have to get your Debian instance
from the Microsoft store.

Transcript follows.  (Apology for questionable use of data.)  During 
that output, notifications about Mono and Gecko appeared. The Mono 
notification is at http://easthope.ca/WineNotification.png . Appears 
that Mono and Gecko are needed to use iTunes successfully whereas 
Debian packages are not available. Ref.  
https://wiki.debian.org/Wine#Mono_and_Gecko There might be a good 
reason for absence from the Debian package archive.  =8~)

For zero or a few dollars, someone in the city will unbrick the

The OP can also consider Lutris:

https://lutris.net/games/itunes/

I've used it for other things, not iTunes, but it has worked quite well
for me, and it can be simpler and less intimidating than straight Wine.

(Or with wine-staging or wine-ge-custom).

An older version of iTunes does seem to work.

Of what possible relevance is that? There are other users who use the
same argument, often giving extensive excrutiating biographical details.

A user may doubt the advice given, but I thought piorunz's helpful post

YMMV, yeah. Works perfectly fine for me though. I use Wine profiles,
Wine devel from WineHQ, Lutris Wine, Steam Proton Wine. Everything
polished and purposely used, no problems whatsoever, I use Forex trading

Windows-VM's doen voor zover ik gevonden heb geen discard/trim op
schijven die via de "virtio" bus zijn aangesloten. In elk geval niet
automatisch.

Als je de disks via een (Virtio) SCSI controller op de VM aansluit
gebeurt dit wél. De .qcow2 files op de host worden na zo'n discard ook
kleiner.

(dit werkt ook als je "sparse volumes" in LVM gebruikt in plaats van
qcow-bestanden)

Dit staat er in mijn aantekeningen, om te verkleinen:
qemu-img convert -p -O qcow2 kvm52.qcow2 kvm52-klein.qcow2

Maar dan heb je dus tijdelijk veel ruimte nodig.

Misschien dat trim het ook zelf kan...

Hallo Wouter en anderen,

Op 14-09-2021 om 13:55 schreef Wouter Verhelst:

Hoi Paul,



Persoonlijk werk ik liever met system VMs (en zelfs virsh geeft je een
warning als je user context VMs probeert aan te maken), maar de keuze is
er dus.


Op een server is dat inderdaad beter, maar ik was hier bezig in een 
desktop context. Windows applicaties draaien onder Linux.



Wat me nog negatief opviel was dat je alleen virtuele harddisks kon aanmaken
die de volledige grootte hebben.


Nee, dat is niet correct:

root@pc181009:/var/lib/libvirt/images# ls -lh debian.qcow2
-rw--- 1 root root 21G 25 aug 18:33 debian.qcow2
root@pc181009:/var/lib/libvirt/images# du -sh debian.qcow2
2,2Gdebian.qcow2


Wat raar zeg, blijkbaar geeft ls -lh dus niet altijd de juiste waarde??


Toch wel, maar wat het je toont is niet wat jij denkt dat het is ;-)

>

"ls -l" geeft je de apparent size; "ls -s" geeft je de hoeveelheid
blocks die in gebruik zijn. De twee zijn niet dezelfde waarde


Is hier misschien iets aan veranderd?


Nee hoor; sparse files bestaan al *heel* lang. Wikipedia legt redelijk
goed uit hoe ze functioneren:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sparse_file


Ik dacht dat ik op de server wel de gebruikte ruimte kreeg met "ls -lh", 
maar misschien moet ik dit beter controleren.



Het bestand is een "sparse file": dat lijkt in mijn geval 21G groot
te zijn, maar neemt in werkelijkheid slechts 2.2G in beslag. Als het
OS in de VM ook de relevante trim/discard SCSI en ATA calls
gebruikt, dan zal qemu dat opnieuw vrijgeven (mijn Windows VM doet
dat niet en gebruikt dus de volledige content van de virtuele hard
disk, maar mijn Linux VMs doen het allemaal wel goed).


Gut, bij mij doen de Linux VM's dat niet. Ik moet wellicht de host
upgraden.


Het kan ook gewoon config binnen de VM zijn hoor. Kijk na of je
trim/discard aan hebt staan op je mounted filesystems.

Alternatief heb ik misschien een foutje gemaakt en doet qemu helemaal
geen fallocate() om het bestand terug sparse te maken, maar worden
alleen sparse files aangemaakt bij het aanmaken van de VM. Deze VM is
nog niet zó geweldig veel gebruikt, dus het kan zijn dat dat de reden is
dat het bestand nog niet helemaal gealloceerd is...


Ik had altijd begrepen dat ze alleen groeiden, en nooit kleiner werden. 
Dat je daarvoor een conversie moet doen die veel ruimte kost. Ik zit 
hiermee bijvoorbeeld met mijn mailserver, daar wordt veel gewist.



Je kan verder ook andere storage backends configureren:

rechtermuisknop op "QEMU/KVM" -> Details -> Storage -> op "+" klikken
onderaan links -> Type openklappen. Bij mij zie ik:

dir: Bestandssysteem map
disk: Fysiek schijf apparaat
fs: Pre-geformatteerd blok apparaat
gluster: Gluster Filesystem
iscsi: iSCSI doel
logical: LVM volume group
mpath: Multi-pad apparaat opsommen
netfs: Netwerk geëxporteerde map
rbd: RADOS Block Device/Ceph
scsi: SCSI host adapter
sheepdog: Sheepdog Filesystem
zfs: ZFS Pool


Interessant, vooral die "dir" kende ik nog niet.


Eh, dat is de default, en is waarschijnlijk ook degene die je gebruikt ;-)

("dir" maakt gewoon .qcow2-bestanden aan in een directory ergens op het
bestandssysteem)


Ah. Ik dacht even dat je de gegevens ook gewoon direct in een directory 
kon zetten, zoals bij een chroot. Maar dus niet.


Groet,
Paul

Goh. In sommige situaties is dat handiger, ja, maar zeker niet altijd;
vooral als je geen systemd gebruikt is dat geen goed idee (want dan
worden je VMs niet correct afgesloten bij het afsluiten van het
systeem). Ook is een VM in user context niet direct beschikbaar van
buiten het virtuele netwerk (zelfs niet vanop de host), omwille van
NAT-only netwerken en zo.

Persoonlijk werk ik liever met system VMs (en zelfs virsh geeft je een
warning als je user context VMs probeert aan te maken), maar de keuze is
er dus.

Toch wel, maar wat het je toont is niet wat jij denkt dat het is ;-)

"ls -l" geeft je de apparent size; "ls -s" geeft je de hoeveelheid
blocks die in gebruik zijn. De twee zijn niet dezelfde waarde

Nee hoor; sparse files bestaan al *heel* lang. Wikipedia legt redelijk
goed uit hoe ze functioneren:

Het kan ook gewoon config binnen de VM zijn hoor. Kijk na of je
trim/discard aan hebt staan op je mounted filesystems.

Alternatief heb ik misschien een foutje gemaakt en doet qemu helemaal
geen fallocate() om het bestand terug sparse te maken, maar worden
alleen sparse files aangemaakt bij het aanmaken van de VM. Deze VM is
nog niet zó geweldig veel gebruikt, dus het kan zijn dat dat de reden is
dat het bestand nog niet helemaal gealloceerd is...

Eh, dat is de default, en is waarschijnlijk ook degene die je gebruikt ;-)

("dir" maakt gewoon .qcow2-bestanden aan in een directory ergens op het
bestandssysteem)

Waar ik nog wel flinke problemen mee had was met het netwerk. Dat deed het

dat starten de VM's niet, zelfs niet als ze geen netwerk kaart hebben.


Je kan ook dat in virsh doen:

Oh kijk!


Wat me nog opviel was dat virt-manager root rechten nodig heeft. Maar je
kunt er vrij simpel voor zorgen dat hij dat blijvend krijgt door ergens een
vinkje te zetten. De disks van je virtuele machines komen niet in je

Avonturen met virt-manager en wine

2021-09-01 Thread Paul van der Vlis

Hallo,

Ik heb niet zoveel ervaring met het draaien van Windows programma's 
onder Linux, maar ik heb een klant die dat graag wou. Wat hier onder 
staat gaat over Debian 11.


In het verleden heb ik wat matige ervaringen gehad met Wine, daarom ben 
ik wat kritisch tegenover dat programma. Bij mijn klant had ik daarom 
aangeraden om maar een virtuele machine te gebruiken.


In het verleden heb ik voor klanten wel Virtualbox geïnstalleerd, maar 
dat zit niet meer in Debian en daarom gebruik ik het liever niet. Een 
punt was in het verleden ook, dat als er een nieuw kernel kwam, dan 
moest je de modules opnieuw compileren. Bij zoiets kan natuurlijk iets 
fout gaan. Ik weet eigenlijk niet zeker of dit nog steeds zo is. Maar 
goed, ik dus maar eens virt-manager geprobeerd. Gewoon simpel te 
installeren met "apt install virt-manager", en dan neemt hij meteen ook 
Qemu, KVM, en dergelijke mee.


Klant had me Windows XP meegeleverd. Dat installeerde prima en heeft als 
voordeel dat het erg weinig geheugen gebruikt. Echter, om het prettig te 
laten functioneren heb je binnen Windows iets nodig wat "spice guest 
tools" heet. En dat bleek niet te werken in XP. Je hebt die spice tools 
nodig voor dingen als copy/paste tussen host en client, maar ook om de 
muis soepel te switchen tussen beide systemen, en voor een betere 
grafische driver. Na het installeren van die tools had ik nog maar 4 
kleuren, het zag er niet uit. Later las ik dat XP niet meer gesupport 
werd. Hier zijn die tools te downloaden:

https://www.spice-space.org/download.html
Ik vond ze niet in Debian, terwijl ik de 
"virtualbox-guest-additions-iso" hier wel vind (in non-free).


Dat XP niet goed functioneerde was een flinke tegenvaller. Daarom ben ik 
ook aan de slag gegaan met Wine. Eigenlijk ging dat vrij goed en soepel, 
alleen kreeg ik OLE foutmeldingen tijdens de installatie. Mocht iemand 
weten wat ik daar tegen kan doen, dan hoor ik dat graag.


Daarna functioneerde het programma, maar was het niet mogelijk om 
bijvoorbeeld een foto te verplaatsen met "drag en drop" in de 
applicatie. Gewone copy/paste deed het wel. Maar een punt bij Wine vind 
ik altijd, dat je nooit zeker weet of het blijft functioneren, of dat je 
toch later nog dingen vind die niet functioneren. Ik vond het dus wat 
onzeker, zeker omdat de klant ver weg woont.


Nu hoorde ik dat je Windows 10 ook gewoon als ISO kon downloaden. Een 
kennis had hier wat meer verstand van, en die heeft dat toen gedaan. 
Omdat ik hier vele oudere laptops heb, hebben we gewoon van een 
willekeurige laptop een Windows7 registratie-code afgehaald, en dat 
bleek te functioneren binnen de Windows10 Pro virtuele machine. Ook al 
was de (virtuele) hardware anders.

voor de 32-bit versie van Windows10, omdat die veel minder geheugen 
nodig heeft (minimaal 1GB). Dus copy/paste van tekst werkt prima (iets

het herschalen van het venster met de virtuele machine gaat prima. Ook

met een SD-kaart-lezer, maar dat bleek geen USB device te zijn.

het in eerste instantie prima, alleen na een reboot van de host-machine 
niet meer. En daardoor wilden de virtuele machines niet meer starten. Na 
lang zoeken vond ik ergens in Virt-manager een optie om het netwerk 
automatisch te starten, als ik me niet vergis in "bewerken | verbinding 
details". Zonder dat starten de VM's niet, zelfs niet als ze geen 
netwerk kaart hebben.

kunt er vrij simpel voor zorgen dat hij dat blijvend krijgt door ergens 
een vinkje te zetten. De disks van je virtuele machines komen niet in je 
home-directory maar ergens in /var/lib/libvirt.


Wat me nog negatief opviel was dat je alleen virtuele harddisks kon 
aanmaken die de volledige grootte hebben. Normaal gebruik ik met Qemu 
disks die "groeien", dus als er meer ruimte nodig is worden ze groter. 
Dit lukte me in eerste instantie niet met virt-manager. Een 20GB 
harddisk voor een VM is dus echt 20GB groot. Het is vast mogelijk om het 
toch op een of andere manier te doen, eventueel buiten virt-manager.


De klant wou niet dat Windows bij het internet kon. Wat ik gedaan heb is 
na installatie de virtuele netwerkkabel verwijderd, dat is ook simpel 
aan en uit te zetten in de eigenschappen van de virtuele machine (bij de 
netwerk kaart). De netwerk kaart verwijderen had vast ook gekund.


Waar ik ook naar gekeken heb is een soort gedeelde map tussen client en 
host, maar dat is me niet gelukt. Nu ja, via een USB-stick.


Omdat de klant geen netwerk wou heb ik geen Samba geprobeerd, dat had 
het waarschijnlijk wel gedaan. Wat ik wel geprobeerd heb is iets wat in 
die Spic
