wineinstall hangs

[Fabian Cenedese]

Hi

I just tried on a new computer to checkout wine from cvs and do a
install. Compilation worked fine, but there was again a problem with
the regedit:

--- snip ---
Preparing to install default Wine registry entries...
Installing default Wine registry entries...

Warning: Language 'us' was not recognized, defaulting to English.
Could not stat /mnt/fd0 (No such file or directory), ignoring drive A:
Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":1.0".

Warning: Language 'us' was not recognized, defaulting to English.

Registry entries successfully installed.
err:seh:setup_exception nested exception on signal stack in thread 0009 eip 40108aa6 esp 40031c28 stack 0x405a0000-0x406a0000

Installation complete for now. Good luck (this is still alpha software).
If you have problems with WINE, please read the documentation first,
as many kinds of potential problems are explained there.

But after that I could start wine regedit and the keys seem to have been
generated. So I don't know what really failed.

You can safely ignore this.

Do you have GLX compatible drivers on this maschine, is GLX activated in 
your XF86Conig file? I often forget these trivial things...

I get this often when RUNNING programs! :)

Which Linux distribution do you use?

Bad.

Perhaps just warnings like the missing /mnt/fd0?

Yep, I know.

I don't know but I thought that ./configure would pick up everything I have
or not and react accordingly. It's bad if the install fails before it's even finished.
What's GLX? It's not mentioned in my XF86Config and locate GLX only
produced two man entries. My graphic card is a Diamond Stealth 64 PCI.

Yes, but already on the WINE setup?

That's Knoppix (Kernel 2.4.24).

Yeah. Maybe there was some debugger activated but I couldn't see it.

An unhandled exception and program hang is always bad. That's my
main concern. And I thought that others may have the same problem.
If not I will look into my configuration some more.

Thanks

Well, it tells you that GLX is missing... ;-)

GLX is hardware acceleration for OpenGL 3D.
Which chip has your Diamond card?

That is Debian based. On Debian Woody I had to install some locale 
packages to get every language I want to work.

But the default should be en, not us?!

That is true. And it is bad from users view not to know at the end if it 
has installed at all!

This is a warning produced by X itself because Wine tries to use GLX at
start-up to probe for OpenGL support.

This is completely harmless.
