Failure of winecfg on Multilib
 

I have installed mutlilib using Alien BOB's packages. I have compiled and installed wine but winecfg gives this

The winecfg window appears but no drives are being recognised.

This error should go away once you start winecfg for a second time.

Try disabling all 3D compositing desktop effects in KDE (assuming you are running that).

I think that the main problem is

mountmgr failed to open mount manager err 2

Wine does not see the drives and does not install programs.

Winecfg working just fine with me, I am running Slackware64-13.0 multilib also. I installed wine from the latest slackbuilds using sbopkg.

Wine-1.1.27 works perfect for me.

The problem with wine not detecting drives has occurred to me once before; The solution seems to be somewhere in a registry setting (iirc a key in HKLM);

See if things change if you:
1) move .wine to .wine-orig
2) run winecfg

A new .wine directory should've been made, and hopefully your wine now sees drives; at least: that was the solution for me. Something either to do with a change in how wine connects to the mount manager iirc, it's a while back.

You can afterward run diff on various reg files or move the right stuff to the new .wine or otherwise "restore" wine. I can imagine this will be a bit of a mess to fix, and up to you which direction you'll head.

Well what I did was I copied the system.reg, user.red and userdef.reg files from my 12.2 wine installation into my new .wine and it now detecting drives.
