Hi,

I'm trying to get wineASIO working, but currently it is a path plastered with broken glass.
(using the wineASIO version from kxstudio, using the debian repositories for it)

There is a confusion about if I should be using 32bit or 64bit wine and if that is possible with wineASIO. Currently, I think I'm using 64 bit, as winetricks tells me:

You are using a 64-bit WINEPREFIX.
Which makes sense, as this is a 64bit Debian Wheezy.

But when I start the 64bit version of VSThost, I get no wineASIO output that I can select.

When starting the 32bit version of VSThost, I get a lot further. The program starts and lets me select wineASIO as the wave output, but after I do, I get an error message inside VSThost (there is just a red X and a close button, no message) and then VSThost crashes.

I run the whole thing with the wine debug info on wineasio and get this:

--------------------------

I use reaper on this wineprefix and it works flawlessly with wineASIO, so I don't know why VSThost does not.

I noticed that when registering the wineASIO dll in 32bit, it works:

regsvr32 wineasio.dll

regsvr32: Successfully registered DLL 'wineasio.dll'

but, when I try to do the same in 64 bit (which I'm supposed to be anyway), it fails:

wine64 regsvr32 wineasio.dll

err:module:load_builtin_dll failed to load .so lib for builtin L"wineasio.dll": /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.14' not found (required by /usr/bin/../lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/wine/wineasio.dll.so)
regsvr32: Failed to load DLL 'wineasio.dll'

Now some of you might ask: Why am I doing this to myself, trying to get wineASIO running, running Windows Software on Linux that was never meant to be run? Well, I love Linux audio and have used it for many many years, but have reached its limits and need to run some software that only exists for Windows. And I don't want to do that on Windows.
