For some time I have been trying to get IBM ViaVoice 10 speech recognition program working in Wine. After installing the latest version of Wine (1.1.14), winecfg now offers ALSA as a choice for audio. Using this I can set up the microphone and use the speech training wizard. Great!! However when I try to start the program I get the following errors:-
cl...@vaio:~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/ViaVoice/Bin$ wine speechbar.exe fixme:msvcrt:__lconv_init stub err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 0x7bc99ac4 "loader.c: loader_secti n" wait timed out in thread 0021, blocked by 0020, retrying (60 sec) err:ole:CoGetClassObject no class object {942d9d55-90cb-11d1-b908-0004ac349fa2} could be created for context 0x7 wine: Critical section 7bc99ac4 wait failed at address 0x7bc3b940 (thread 0021) starting debugger...

No process loaded, cannot execute 'detach' The IBM splash screen appears and some time later a dialogue stating "Your Operating System does not support voice commands for menus........Use your mouse........" "err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection ....." appears 3 or 4 times in the Wine bugs list for other programs. Do I have to wait till this fixed or can anyone suggest anything else I might try?
