Upgraded Slack 11...Wine won't work
I know that this is a simple fix. I upgraded slackware yesterday, which included an upgrade to x11. When I try to fire up anything with wine, X is killed. I think that it lists an error that it cannot find kdeinit. I figure that the upgrade probably just erased a symlink or something like that, and I figure that I am not the first to have seen this. Can anyone help?
I am trying to find the output now, but I don't want to kill X again... |
Did you upgrade wine as well?
There is a Slackware 11 wine package on linuxpackages.net. |
The recent in changes in -current are really really big, including a switch to glibc 2.5 from 2.3. So you will probably have to recompile many things you have installed. Don't expect 11.0 stuff to work on -current.

I had the same problem after applying some patches to my 11.0 stable installation using:
#slackpkg update #slackpkg upgrade patches Re-installing the NVIDIA driver and having it set up a new xorg.conf file solved it. So it's probably not an issue of X11 itself or Wine, but one of the X11 configuration. gargamel |
I got it to work after recompiling my kernel and reloading the NVIDIA driver. However, it doesn't start as quickly as it did before. Can you think of anything that might be dragging it down?
Thanks for the help so far. |
