[Bug 27647] New: An interactive guitar course won't work

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27647

Summary: An interactive guitar course won't work
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.2.2
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal

The error I get when I play a video

I am trying to run an Italian guitar course. This is a rather unknown piece of
software, and I am likely to be the only person on the planet trying to run it
under wine.

So, I am crossing my fingers where: 1) This is something that can be fixed
easily in a generic way 2) Other users have the same problem although using
different pieces of software.

The problem is only evident when I try to play a video in this course (they
show you how to play things).

Please note that this is likely to be pretty poorly written software... but you
never know.

Is there *anything* I can do to make this work? Even copy things over from a
Windows installation?

Bye!

Merc.

Does "winetricks directx9" help? (to get native quartz)?

Hi,

It's a little different now...
Now I get this as soon as I run it:

err:ole:COMPOBJ_DllList_Add couldn't load in-process dll L"quartz.dll"
err:ole:CoGetClassObject no class object {e436ebb3-524f-11ce-9f53-0020af0ba770}

Well, still fails to load quartz.dll...

Something must went wrong with winetricks? Could you check the output of:

ls -al ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/quartz.dll

and paste it here?

Hi,

I already checked, it seems to be there...

$ ls -al ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/quartz.dll
-rw-r--r-- 1 merc merc 2496 2011-06-29 12:09

that looks like the fake dll that wine itsself creates. The native quartz.dll
should be at least >1MB size:

-rw-r--r-- 1 louis louis 1962496 2003-05-30 09:00
/home/louis/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/quartz.dll

Maybe it's a good idea to start on a new fresh ~/.wine, and do again
'winetricks quartz' , then reinstall the app, and report back error messages

Hi,

OK done! I deleted .wine and ran:

winetricks quartz
winetricks directx9
winetricks ie7

The output is now VERY different -- I wonder if it's promising!

This only comes out when I try and run a video...

yes, you might try "winetricks wmp10"

If that doesn't help either, please set all dlls back to buitin (in
winecfg->Library tab) except quartz and devenum, and then attach output from
console here

Sone, log attched...
Do you think I will actually manage to get out of it?

Would you like me to send somebody the program...?

Not sure, i see the same crash over again, even with native quartz. Maybe a
debuglog is more useful then.

Could you run the program by:

WINEDEBUG=+relay,+seh,+tid wine player.exe &>/tmp/log.txt

then bzip2 the file /tmp/log and attach it to this bug.
> Would you like me to send somebody the program...?

I guess it's not freeware right? so likely not allowed

OK done.
My goodness, the debug is IMMENSE!
> > Would you like me to send somebody the program...?

It's not freeware, but:

1) I can send you the program with just the first lesson. The point of the
course is the lessons -- the program to see them is worthless

2) It's for research/bug fixing issues. Since I can't use it right now, I would
temporarily lend you the license to use it.

3) This is something that is actually _beneficial_ for the program... so...

OK uploading the zipped log!

Bye,

Merc.
