## Salut. J’ai appliqué le scrip de aladrocMatiner et j’ai pu me reconnecter au jeu. J’ai LM 20.3 mais cela a fonctionné malgré quelques messages d’erreur notemment quand wine s’est activé. Je me demande si je dois enlever lm20.3 et installer LM 20.4? Un grand merci. Salvation. I applied the script from aladrocMatiner and I was able to reconnect to the game. I have LM 20.3 but it worked despite some error messages, especially when wine activated. I wonder if I should remove lm20.3 and install LM 20.4? A big thank-you. ---

I think i was low on sugar… Had 10 min to look all again in prespective and it installed… runned Some minor issues with the launcher to setup accounts so far but working… I updated the git repo as inspiration for everyone [GitHub - aladrocMatiner/eveonline-linux: Attempt to run on linux eve online after the deprecation of the linux client](https://github.com/aladrocMatiner/eveonline-linux) ---

Wine 7.6, fresh install of eve launcher, after logging in, launcher gives error after putting in username/password “could not open login window…”, got a verification email so I guess the 2FA window did not open. Anyone got the same error? Opensuse TW 20220410 ---

Ive been headbanging my head trying to add these two dependencies dxva\_video\_decode\_accelerator\_win.cc(1399) and network\_change\_notifier\_win.cc(142) but I have been unsuccessful. If anyone is able to get past that point i’d be very happy to know how and please be lenient to users new to Linux! ---

Are you all using the latest upstream Windows launcher or are you still trying to use the deprecated/unmaintained Linux launcher? The windows launcher has been working fine for me with no hiccups since Wine 6.18 or so. ---

I wanted to say thank you to everyone that posted how they had been handling the install or reinstall, i had finally booted windows out the window, and Eve was the last game i wanted to install because i was going to start playing again. so after reading most of the posts step one for me was using my browser to download the current launcher (windows version) from Eve/CPP then i did [Anderson Geten](https://forums.eveonline.com/u/Anderson_Geten) routine with the mkdir -p $HOME/wineprefixes/eve mkdir -p $HOME/.cache/eve/EVESharedCache mkdir -p $HOME/wineprefixes/eve/drive\_c/EVE/ ln -s $HOME/.cache/eve/EVESharedCache $HOME/wineprefixes/eve/drive\_c/EVE/EVESharedCache mkdir -p $HOME/.config/ccp mkdir -p $HOME/wineprefixes/eve/drive\_c/users/$USER/AppData/Local/ ln -s $HOME/.config/ccp $HOME/wineprefixes/eve/drive\_c/users/$USER/AppData/Local/CCP WINEPREFIX=$HOME/wineprefixes/eve/ wine $HOME/Downloads/EveLauncher-2023444.0IQYR4k5R2a97jBlfLcXzw.exe so from there it seemed there was something wrong for me, so i went to winetricks and tried a launcher install from there, nada, i got the endless spiral of CCP and nothing more then i went to Lutris, now after reading that the scripts from the website had not worked, and figuring some of the stuff i did was useful, i went the add game route, and manually did things, selected a cache directory and selected the evelauncher exe and began install, to start the manual way i used the plus sign in the left corner, from there the launcher started once done and it began the game download, using that eve launcher that was open i created the account and verified it and my little username was there while the download completed. with game content done the first startup failed, so i went into lutris remembering what i had to do to get world of warcraft to work , i disabled everything but the “Enable Esync” under Runner Options… and in that same screen i have showing Lutris-fshack-7.2-x86\_64(default) … and from there it worked… ill be honest i have no idea if the first try in winetricks did anything to help my fight but thats where im at, Eve and WoW work under wine 7.2 / Lutris Ubuntu 20.04 NVIDIA GT 710 (the 470 drivers) with GNome 3.36.8 all on 64-bit Thank you everyone for the work through good luck and fly safe ---
