err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 0xXXXXXXX "?" wait timed out, retrying (60sec) fs = XXXX

by Sylvain Petreolle

Hi, Like many users now, I have this message when I launch some programs : err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 0xXXXXXXX "?" wait timed out, retrying (60sec) fs = XXXX To clear the situtation : What does this message means and what could be done to make it disappear ? Some users have made post with these and have got no response... ___________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? -- Une adresse @yahoo.fr gratuite et en français ! Yahoo!

Well, it's easy : it depends of the user you mount your VFAT partition with. Look at this example (on ext2) : nexus6:~$ ls -l toto -rwxrwxrwx 1 ulmer users 0 Jan 29 20:53 toto nexus6:~$ su otheruser Password: nexus6:/home/ulmer$ ls -l toto -rwxrwxrwx 1 ulmer users 0 Jan 29 20:53 toto nexus6:/home/ulmer$ chmod o-x toto chmod: toto: Operation not permitted So if like me, you had your VFAT partition mounted R/W for everybody on the system (or for people from a particular group) but with owner = root, you will have the chmod problem (I was bitten by it once while playing Baldur's Gate). This bug is really painful for multi-user systems... In my case, I fixed it to have the VFAT files mounted with me as the owner :-) Lionel -- Lionel Ulmer - http://www.bbrox.org/

This is not surprising since chmod operation is supposed to fail if you have mounted filesystem in readonly mode.

and while we are on the subject what is the philosophy on ifdefing header files? (I have freetype 2.0.1 from RedHat 7.1 so this morning's build failed because I don't have the trig stuff.) If we test for a header file and only include it if it is present should we be putting similar ifdefs around the code that required the header and providing alternatives when it is not present, or specifying that it NEEDS to exist?

Well, the sdldrv is a long way from being capable of that kind of thing. 8-) The big thing that's missing is a real GDI renderer. It's great to have something that can kind-of do a bitblt, but if you want to have windows and menus and such on the screen, a real renderer is needed. Aside from BitBlit-ing, it would need to handle polygons, brushes, pens, clipping, and most painfully, text. It's possible that some of Huw's recent work might help there, but I'm not sure - I think that XRender actually requires X... Now, the interesting thing is this: Once we have a GDI renderer, we can eliminate a *huge* amount of DIBSection cruft from the X11 driver. Currently Wine goes through astounding manipulations to get X to draw things for us when we should be doing it ourselves. This is very slow, and affects more apps than you might think (ie: WordPerfect). We actually have a co-op student (Hi Jonathan!) who we've asked to look into this a bit. He's quite new to Wine, and has some other duties as well, but I'm sure that he would be interested in sharing the work. 8-) -Gav -- Gavriel State, CEO TransGaming Technologies Inc. http://www.transgaming.com gav(a)transgaming.com

system directory selection

by Brian Elliott

Hi folks, I just installed WINE for the first time and had some trouble getting dlls to load until I set the "system" option to my Win2k partition's system32 directory in wine.conf. Auto discovery of the proper system directory for wine.conf by wineinstall seems like a useful thing for new users. Would it be useful if I put together a small patch to the wineconf program so that running wineinstall will select the right system directory for configuration? Also, is it correct to assume that if a system32 subdirectory exists under the winnt or windows directory that it should be set given preference in wine.conf as the system directory?
