http://wiki.winehq.org/ARM says commands like $ qemu-i386 /usr/local/qemu-i386/wine/bin/wine /usr/local/qemu-i386/wine/c/Program\ Files/putty.exe used to work, but doesn't anymore.
I gave it a shot anyway, just trying to run x86 apps inside wine inside qemu: wget http://wiki.qemu.org/download/qemu-1.0.1.tar.gz tar -xzvf qemu-1.0.1.tar.gz cd qemu-1.0.1 ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/qemu --target-list=i386-linux-user make # Compilation fails; to work around, edit linux-user/syscall.c and # replace soundcard.h with soundcard.h.oss3 make sudo make install # Verify that qemu can run a trivial binary /usr/local/qemu/bin/qemu-i386 /bin/uname -a # Verify you can run wine a little /usr/local/qemu/bin/qemu-i386 /usr/bin/wine --version # Now run a real app /usr/local/qemu/bin/qemu-i386 /usr/bin/wine cmd /c echo hi qemu: Unsupported syscall: 240 # Huh. That didn't work. OK, try sh: /usr/local/qemu/bin/qemu-i386 /bin/sh $ ls /bin/sh: 1: Cannot fork
The syscall error seems to be https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qemu-linaro/+bug/758424 "We only implement the futex syscalls if CONFIG_USE_NPTL. This isn't defined for the i386 target (the necessary support in target-i386 for pushing atomic insns up to the linux-user top level loop isn't implemented). The upshot is that running multithreaded programs in linux-user i386-target isn't supported and this is just one of the symptoms." Dunno about the fork error.
So it looks like anyone hoping to run x86 wine in qemu would need to fix qemu first and/or go back to an old wine that doesn't use nptl?
