WINE 1.1.31 is out!
This version brings improved GDI rendering performance, sound driver fixes and finally fixes the nasty bugs when running Trackmania Nations
...and a lot of additional bugfixes and improvements (as always).

Hey now! I resemble that remark!
Actually, I have been known to use those old hard drives as swap space. Puppy goes easy on its swap space, so it actually works out well. Although the data transfer rates on those old drives is not really very hot, the fact that it's a dedicated device makes it OK, since the bulk of the transacting is occuring on the main HD. The swap drive(s) in my machines don't have to do a lot, just take a bit of overflow once in awhile, then give it back upon request.
I tested it to see if having a swap partition on the main hard drive (faster) or the little hard drive (slower) was more advantageous to net system speed. Without actually benchmarking it, it felt a bit faster with the separate device. I blame that on it being a separate channel so it reduces the seeking on the main HD.
FWIW........

If no one has any objections, I have mirrored 'wine_lite-1.1.30-i486.pet'
here.

I am attempting to compile Wine, but am having some problems. Using a frugal install with the Devx file, Wine appears to compile and install fine. Running 'winecfg' from the console appears to work. If I reboot into my full hard drive installation of Puppy, 'winecfg' is not found. 'winecfg' appears to not be in /usr/bin. What would you recommend I do to fix this, so a .PET will work out of the box, so to speak?
A few details are as follows.
frugal install using:
puppies-431.1-main-Xserver.iso [1]
devx_430.sfs
When compiling, I used in console (without quotes):
'./configure prefix=/usr sysconfdir=/etc localstatedir=/var build=i486-pc-linux-gnu' [2]
If anyone needs more details to diagnose this issue, just ask.

did you look in /usr/sbin ???
Here is a set of extra files (I took out winetricks because it was outdated)

If you build with this instead of just ./configure it will be much smaller (like the 1.1.30 build)
| Code: | CFLAGS=" -pipe -combine -Os -momit-leaf-frame-pointer -fomit-frame-pointer \
-fmerge-all-constants -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 -march=i386 -mtune=i686 " \
CXXFLAGS=" -pipe -combine -Os -momit-leaf-frame-pointer -fomit-frame-pointer \
-fmerge-all-constants -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 -march=i386 -mtune=i686 " \
LDFLAGS=" -Wl,-O4,-Os,-relax,--sort-common,--no-keep-memory,-s " \
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var \
--build=i486-t2-linux-gnu ..............
|
I finally figured out how to override Wine's stubborn Makefiles that have builtin -O2 optimization
This is required to make the build smaller by ~4-5MB compressed
| Code: | | find . -iname \*akefile -execdir sed -i "s/-O[0-3]/ -Os -pipe -combine -momit-leaf-frame-pointer -fomit-frame-pointer -fmerge-all-constants -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 -march=i386 -mtune=i686 /g" {} ';' -print |

debugger and wine |
|
I initially posted this into another thread by mistake. I am unsure how to edit a post. By the way, my intention is not to advertise a for-pay game site.
The following is my copied post.
---------
It is interesting that when I use wine-1.1.29-i486-1kjz.tgz I can play the GOG.com version of 'FlatOut'.
When I use 'wine_lite-1.1.30-i486.pet' or any .PET of wine 1.1.31 that I have made, I get the [following]:
A debugger has been detected
Unload the debugger and try again
[/following]
I will try to find a free program that gives this same message so perhaps the issue can be diagnosed as to why it happens.

if you can't find out anything on winehq.org appdb you can try running this prior to compile (and after configuring with --disable-debug)
| Code: | | find . -iname \*akefile -execdir sed -i "s/ -g / /g" {} ';' -print |
I'm not sure if it will work, but that's what I would try first.

wine 1.1.31 |
|
Here is my novice attempt at compiling wine (release 1), so beware
wine-1.1.31-i486.pet
md5 - 7f0b026803ae556a88bb266175c0ed00
sha1 - 9582662c974933b305d29ebb69cd8b094313a2c2
I recommend using 'winefiles_no_tricks.pet' [1] from technosaurus. I found this file to be an easy way to add winecfg that I was unsure of how to add. I do not know how to successfully uninstall it, so keep that in mind.
I have it mirrored, if no one has any objections.

I used one wine offering and there was no winecfg too...but I grabbed it from an earlier version as it's just a simple launch script that does not seem to vary from version to version

GD - did that fix your problem with flatout?

mikeb - good to know that winecfg appears static from version to version of wine.
technosaurus - I ended up using:
| Code: |
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var --build=i486-pc-linux-gnu
|
When I used the following code, FlatOut would refuse to run.
| Code: |
CFLAGS=" -pipe -combine -Os -momit-leaf-frame-pointer -fomit-frame-pointer \
-fmerge-all-constants -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 -march=i386 -mtune=i686 " \
CXXFLAGS=" -pipe -combine -Os -momit-leaf-frame-pointer -fomit-frame-pointer \
-fmerge-all-constants -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 -march=i386 -mtune=i686 " \
LDFLAGS=" -Wl,-O4,-Os,-relax,--sort-common,--no-keep-memory,-s " \
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var \
--build=i486-t2-linux-gnu
|
Perhaps there are other variables or code that will allow 'Flatout' to run, but using what I read from Barry's blog appears to work fine.
By the way, --disable-debug did not appear to be recognized.
Thanks for all the help.

Yeah I'm starting to wonder about all these flags myself, but that's for another thread I'm already in.
