Wine Broken on my Machine

[Malix-Labs]

Problem

Since I downloaded Bluefin, I was never able to make Wine (through Bottles) work

Today, I am really dependent on a Windows app which I would like to use through Wine (preferably through Bottles)

I tried many different bottles configurations and many different .exe for at least 2 hours, the same (or almost the same) error appears (see "Wine Error Logs" bellow)

Expected Outcome

A working Wine (preferably through Bottles)

Logs

Wine Error Logs

When launching an .exe, the same error log appear :

What kind of error are you getting? Try running flatpak run com.usebottles.bottles and sending the logs here, otherwise we cant begin to debug this issue since theres no info about it

[Malix-Labs]

The error seems to come from Wine, not bottle

I updated the issue to make it clearer

theres no info about it

Are the logs I already added to "extra information or context" not enough ?
That's all the logs I got for now, and included some extra ones I thought relevant

Bottles as a GUI is running fine, Wine is not, so I guess Wine is the problem and not Bottles

[Malix-Labs]

Reproduction

1. 
2. 
3. https://www.majorgeeks.com/mg/get/notepad,2.html (notepad++ Windows Exe v8.7.1 x86_64)
4. 
5. 

[petete1]

I have your exact same laptop, with bazzite-nvidia instead. The installer starts just fine here.

[Malix-Labs]

@petete1 does those exact reproduction steps succeed : https://github.com/ublue-os/bluefin/issues/1880#issuecomment-2457904076 ?

[petete1]

Yes, the steps i followed were: 1-Create a new prefix with default settings 2-download and launch the installer 3-notepad++ just works

For the record it seems to use the integrated AMD gpu, as there's nothing on nvidia-smi. Did you try using wine directly or any other wine launcher like steam, lutris or heroic?

[Malix-Labs]

Did you try using wine directly

The CLI doesn't seem to come in Bluefin and Wine linux also doesn't seem to be available in brew

I could try a distrobox, maybe

or any other wine launcher like steam, lutris or heroic?

I have none installed because I do not play video games anymore

I will try with Lutris, but I don't think it would change the outcome

[Malix-Labs]

Maybe the issue comes from a wrong state in my system config ?

No idea what it could be though, and searching on the internet wasn't fruitful

In which case I would have liked to have https://github.com/ublue-os/main/issues/95

[Juan-de-Costa-Rica]

@Malix-Labs

I could try a distrobox, maybe

Wine is working fine for me from an Ubuntu distrobox, just tested it now.

[tulilirockz]

@Malix-Labs Sorry, I didnt see the logs on the original post for some reason :p - This is a Xwayland issue, not a wine one. Do you mind checking if Bottles has access to X11 on Flatseal? - Is Steam or Lutris working on your system?

[Malix-Labs]

no worries @tulilirockz :)

This is a Xwayland issue, not a wine one

Okay, thanks for your analysis

It seems to work fine for other stuff in my system though, or at least I have not noticed

Do you mind checking if Bottles has access to X11 on Flatseal?

Ofc, here it is :

Default settings, nothing changed

1. 
2. 
3. 

Is Steam or Lutris working on your system?

Steam yes, I already tested it for a video game I tested but only for a few minutes/hours

Lutris idk, never really tested

[Malix-Labs]

hey again @tulilirockz !

do you know where it could come from ?

I still haven't found much after that

[tulilirockz]

Hello! @Malix-Labs Honestly, absolutely no idea. If I had that issue id just enable and disable random things in flatseal until it worked 😭 - For now id recommend you to use Lutris if it works, it should be similar enough to bottles to use
