I’ve downloaded the latest stable Wine and installed it, but it doesn’t add any entries to the Mint program menu. I’ve found the Wine configurer and set it to default to XP, but I can’t see how to actually do the install of the Eve launcher - any suggestions ? ---

The WINE version can be seen with `winecfg` and when you go there into the About tab. Do the folowing to set up EVE from a shell, assuming you’ve downloaded the [Windows installer](http://binaries.eveonline.com/EveLauncher-1381807.exe): ```nohighlight export WINEPREFIX=~/.eve # set this to where you want to keep the game winecfg # set WINE into "Windows XP"-mode wine EveLauncher-1381807.exe # run the installer ``` This will install EVE and you can start playing with DirectX9/11 over OpenGL. For DXVK (DirectX10/11 over Vulkan) see the info above where I’ve detailed the steps needed to get it running. When you want the least amount of work, but with DXVK, then choose the Steam set up. Steam comes with its own WINE version, some extra patches, plus DXVK. The steps for Steam are also described above. The common issues people encounter here are the missing “Windows XP”-mode and missing 32-bit WINE components and missing 32-bit graphics drivers. For DXVK does it also need 32-bit vulkan drivers. Some have reported they needed the core fonts and/or `dotnet40` via `winetricks` before it worked for them on their particular distro. ---

Reinstalled my OpenSUSE install yesterday, after trying to upgrade from Leap 42.3 to 15.0 (which failed). After restoring access to my /home partition (containing a pre-existing install of the launcher) I found I could not run EVE. The pre-existing install quickly showed a red square that read that the process had stopped unexpectedly. After much unsuccesful trial and error I removed everything and anything CCP- or EVE-related that I could find and downloaded the most recent beta release linked here: it starts EVE, my screen goes black for a fraction of a second before returning to my desktop without any notification of failure. The launcher looks as if it is yet again waiting for me to click ‘Play’, with the Play icon having reverted to a Stop icon. While loglite is full of data, it is not telling me anything useful. ---

I assumed that such requirements would have been met by my package manager, as they had been before… After much frustration, I’ve found that running the windows executable under 64-bit wine runs a lot better for me, only needing `winetricks allfonts` to get the launcher working for me. It’s set to resemble Windows XP right now, but a second wine-bottle resembling Windows 10 seems to run just as well as long as the game sticks to d3d9. d3d11 works without readily apparent graphical problems, but the framerate suffers greatly for it. (Here’s hoping CCP will commit to Vulkan…) ---

> [@Roxanne\_Estemaire](#): > > After much frustration, I’ve found that running the windows executable under 64-bit wine runs a lot better for me, only needing `winetricks allfonts` to get the launcher working for me. There seems to be a misunderstanding in there somewhere. A pure 64-bit WINE can run almost none of the common Windows programs, because many Windows DLLs are still 32-bit. What you will be using is very likely the combined 32- & 64-bit version of WINE. This is also what most Linux users will be using, because they will have 64-bit computers, running a 64-bit Linux distro, and using the 32- & 64-bit combined WINE version. This is confusing, but it’s caused by how Linux and Windows differ from one another and WINE has to bridge between the two. Linux can exist as a pure 32- or a pure 64-bit operating system, whereas Windows can only exist as a pure 32-bit or a mixed 32- & 64-bit operating system. The later is referred to as 64-bit Windows, but there is no actual 64-bit Windows made entirely from 64-bit software. Regarding Vulkan can you already use DXVK, which translates DirectX11 into Vulkan and runs as fast as DirectX9. This is what already some of us here do. We play EVE under Linux and in DirectX11, using DXVK to map it to Vulkan, and get very decent performance from it as well as a very low power consumption. ---

I’ve found a work-round for my hangs. I noticed that, when running multiple clients, only one client (not always the same one though) and the launcher froze, the other clients kept running. So… I tried terminating the launcher as soon as the clients were up and running - done about 20 hours gameplay since, including multiple clients and a 30±system autopiloted (AFK) tour of HS, no hangs or crashes. Not a fix as such, but it will do for now. ---

After an closer look on the wine check in evelauncher.sh i have it now fixed, should work on all distributions. If i use the delivered QT5-libraries from the launcher, the internal commands doesn’t work. In the previous mentioned environment i can use the QT5-libraries from the system after installing `libQt5WebSockets5` which are missing after the default installation. The used wine-package delivers winetricks, so are it not needed to download an external version, but make sure, that winetricks are in the path and executable. For the AUR package i have written a patch which should be used, if you want to use the linux launcher with my scripts on rpm-based distributions. jernuh@linux-niw8:~/Downloads\> cat evesetup\_tumbleweed.patch ```auto diff -uNr evesetup.orig/build_installer.sh evesetup/build_installer.sh --- evesetup.orig/build_installer.sh 2018-11-17 14:35:11.000000000 +0100 +++ evesetup/build_installer.sh 2018-11-17 15:18:39.308283744 +0100 @@ -9,6 +9,9 @@ release=$(grep ^pkgrel PKGBUILD | cut -d= -f2) || exit 1 arch=$(uname -m) +printf "\n\n Warning, this version are only for Plasma Desktop " +printf "or installed QT5 libraries version>=5.11! \n\n" + if [! -f "makeself-2.4.0.run"] ;then printf "\nGet makeself...\n\n" curl -L -O https://github.com/megastep/makeself/releases/download/release-2.4.0/makeself-2.4.0.run @@ -31,52 +34,52 @@ mkdir evesetup/ echo "done." +printf "\nExtract evelauncher-$version.tar.gz..." +tar xf ../evelauncher-$version.tar.gz +echo "done." + printf "\nCopy needed files from AUR package..." for eia in $(ls ../eve-icons*.tar.gz) ;do tar xf $eia -C evesetup/ ;done -for eta in $(ls ../eve-transl5.11-??.tar.gz) ;do cp $eta evesetup/ ;done for cmd in evelauncher.sh everegedit evewine evewinecfg evewinetricks ;do if [-f ../$cmd] ;then cp ../$cmd evesetup/ ;fi if [!

(Crap, forgot the whitespace handling after copy from the webbrowser, should work now.) Update: Merged changed wine check routine in AUR, so patch has changed too. Update 2: Fixed some bugs in wine check which raised trough whitespaces in installed wine path. ---

Distro: Kali/GNU Linux rolling (Yes I’m serious 😛 ) ./evelauncher.sh outputs the following error: `root@kali:~/evelauncher# ./evelauncher.sh /root/evelauncher/./evelauncher: symbol lookup error: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libGLX_mesa.so.0: xcb_dri3_get_supported_modifiers` Any suggestions other than “_Don’t use Kali_”?
