Hi! I'm solving the following problem: I would like to run the "Tibbo Device Server Toolkit" (TDSK) - see http://www.tibbo.com/get_dst.php During installation of the product on a fresh wine (the last Sunday's git) with a fresh .wine directory, it crashes with the following report:
wine: Call from 0x7b841720 to unimplemented function ntoskrnl.exe.KeInitializeEvent, aborting wine: Unimplemented function ntoskrnl.exe.KeInitializeEvent called at address 0x7b841720 (thread 0021), starting debugger... Unhandled exception: unimplemented function ntoskrnl.exe.KeInitializeEvent called in 32-bit code (0x7b841796).
Is this function hard to implement ? I'm somewhat experienced with Linux programming, but I know absolutely nothing about windoze.
After a lot of time, if wineserver -k isn't applied, it reports another two unimplemented functions - KeInitializeInterrupt and KeInitializeMutant. What about these ?
With regards, Pavel Troller
Hi, Pavel!
You are trying to run the Windows device driver (a virtual port redirector) included with the application.
Wine does not really support Windows drivers - although some may load the functionality just isn't there. The application may run on a COM port supported by the operating system (Linux, etc.)
The installation failure is what you should aim to fix. A winedevice crash should not stop the installation.
