Closed revast closed 4 months ago
Running in a virtualized environment is a no-go. it may be possible with KVM and hardware passthrough, but with Virtualbox - definitely not... Also, I do not maintain 7x anymore
I could reproduce the error for 8x (on a physical machine) by not having the environment variables defined in /etc/environment. It occurred to me, when I was trying to define them in my ~/.bashrc instead.
@Shnalf - Thanks for pointing this detail out. I guess @revast was likely doing something similar (?).
I make my wine env variables system-wide, and it's also what i recommend. Probably the only exception to that might be WINEPREFIX+ if using multiple prefixes. In that case, I would probably not have it set globally. (But I only use one wine prefix, personally).
@revast -I'm closing this error -- It seems you were manually trying to set env variables, rather than using them in /etc/environment as I do / suggest... and also: I've archived 7x code, as it doesn't build and I have no intention of fixing that...
@Shnalf - thanks again for pointing out the issue
I managed to compile 8x, but it fails to launch currently:
and with 7x, a patch is sadly not merging:
this is with linux-nspa kernel running, but no optimization otherwise done to the os - running in virtualbox
