WINE is still seems to be hogging the CPU and doing nothing. I did some more testing. I've got 3 machines: the one I'm working on, running the X server and two boxes which I ssh into. All three are running 6.3/i386, the same version of Wine and dependencies. Wine works fine if I start it on the machine where the X server is, but exhibits the afore mentioned problems if I run it on the box I ssh into. Of course X forwarding is working (tested with a lot of other applications). So I ask: is this a known problem? Has anyone Wine working with X11 forwarded through ssh? bye Thanks av. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

I can't speak to if WINE will work or nor, but if the app is so simple why not use a native bsd/*nix app? - Original Message - From: owner-freebsd-questi...@freebsd.org owner-freebsd-questi...@freebsd.org To: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org freebsd-questions@freebsd.org Sent: Sat Dec 05 06:47:00 2009 Subject: WINE on 6.3 Hello.

It's think it's possible that the p13 update no zero mapping might have an affect on windows/dos programs. For win32 console applications try using wineconsole, if you aren't already. If your app is a DOS application you would be better-off with dosbox. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

It's think it's possible that the p13 update no zero mapping might have an affect on windows/dos programs. [snip] Not sure this is present in 6.3, so check first. A quick sysctl security.bsd.map_at_zero will return a value of 0 if present. As RW indicated it may have been included in the p13 update. To elaborate a little, you may need to toggle the security.bsd.map_at_zero: 0 MIB. Change this to 1 to disable, not sure if loader.conf or sysctl.conf is the right place. Would be better not to have to do this because leaving it enabled is a security feature. However, WINE may not run without it. I'm also not sure if the following is related, I just recall reading about it at in the same time frame and mostly with regard to Samba. Possibly there is a need to place CONFIGURE_ARGS+= --disable-pie in make.conf and recompile WINE. This may not apply to WINE at all so if the MIB config mentioned above fixes the situation do not proceed with this. I suspect wrt to WINE this is irrelevant, but thought I'd mention it anyway. Should you discover --disable-pie is required leaving it present in make.conf is not a very satisfactory arrangement, as it would then apply to all ports. Workaround would be to place it just for WINE recompile if absolutely necessary and then comment it out when done. -Mike ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
