Hello!

I have recently gotten EVE online working with my Fedora 19 system. Most everything runs well, though there is the heavy lag in big engagements that I have to contend with. It's more unplayable than it would be on a normal Windows system.

Anyway, big problem. The In Game Browser isn't working. When I click on the browser, I receive the following message from Wine.

Quote:
The program ccpBrowser.exe has encountered a serious problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.


Current system specs are below:

System information:
Wine build: wine-1.7.5
Platform: i386 (WOW64)
Host system: Linux
Host version: 3.11.9-200.fc19.x86_64

Video Driver Information:
xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-331.20-4.fc19.x86_64
xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs-331.20-4.fc19.i686
akmod-nvidia-331.20-3.fc19.x86_64
xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs-331.20-4.fc19.x86_64
kmod-nvidia-3.11.9-200.fc19.x86_64-331.20-3.fc19.x86_64

BackTrace is HERE!

Has anyone encountered and/or resolved this issue before? If so, can you provide me with a solution? If not, is anyone able to make sense of the errors that I'm receiving?

Hi there,

also using F19. Looks like it is basically the same setup as you're using. I am not using the IGB regulary, but it seems to be working here fine. Think there was some issues with https in the past. You're sure it is every page or just a specific one that is not working?

It's possible that there are only specific pages that are failing. I'll check with some non https urls and see what happens, though I'm pretty sure that all URLs are affected.

I didn't have this problem when I was running EVE on F17, so I'm thinking that this might be a unique issue with my particular installation. I've had a few other non-related bugs with unrelated programs as well. Headaches all around!

Remake your wineprefix. This is something about the wineprefix that did not work correctly after a wine update. Remove the wineprefix or if you don't want to reinstall. Create a new wineprefix and launch it from the install off the old one.

IE Export new prefix
and wine from old location.

Forgive me for being a total newb. I'm actually not entirely sure what a Wine Prefix is.

Here is my current launch script for EVE online:

Quote:
wine explorer /desktop=eveA,2320x1060 "C:\Program Files (x86)\CCP\EVE\bin\ExeFile.exe"


I did some research and tried recreating the script as follows, including a WINEPREFIX and even a WINEARCH, but no dice. For context, all of my wine stuff is in ~/.wine, with the directory path to ExeFile.exe being ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)/CCP/EVE/bin/ExeFile.exe

Quote:
#!/bin/bash

WINEPREFIX=~/.wine
WINEARCH=wine32
wine explorer /desktop=eveA,2320x1060 "C:\Program Files (x86)\CCP\EVE\bin\ExeFile.exe"


What am I missing?

Sorry, missed this thread, so that's the reason for a late reply.

I am using since about 1 year two scripts for starting eve. First the one for starting EVE:
Quote:

#!/bin/sh
export WINEDLLOVERRIDES="*msvcr100,*msvcr90,*msvcr80=b,n"
WINEDEBUG="-all" WINEARCH=32 WINEPREFIX=~/.wine-eve wine explorer /desktop=eve1,1920x1680 ~/.wine-eve/drive_c/Programme/CCP/EVE/bin/ExeFile.exe


Notice the WINEPREFIX that allows setting the location of your wine home. Its good practise having the .wine for random stuff and if you want a game running stable to have a own prefix for each. This prevents playing arround with some settings for a game will break another for you.

Second one is used for updates:
Quote:
#!/bin/sh
export WINEDLLOVERRIDES="*msvcr100,*msvcr90,*msvcr80=n,n"
WINEDEBUG="-all" WINEARCH=32 WINEPREFIX=~/.wine-eve wine ~/.wine-eve/drive_c/Programme/CCP/EVE/eve.exe


Someone wrote that this switching might not be required anymore due some wine updates. As I didn't had any issues however so far, I am still overriding the DLLs. Maybe that's the difference between our two F19 systems.

It crashes for me too. It does not matter if I


  1. use a new prefix, or not
  2. use https or http
  3. have IE instaled or not
  4. the website visited is irrelevant


the backtrace looks like Prannon's.

FIX: winetricks corefonts d3dx9_36 vcrun2005 vcrun2008 vcrun2010

and now it works.... Lol

I'm now getting problems with the game locking up my PC after updating my NVIDIA driver to 331.20.

There is a known problem with the more recent drives (so others say, not me) and I'm now in the process of backdating to 319.76 which is not supposed to have this problem.

Fedora, 64 bit, etc etc.

:)

Error is supposed to effect firefox dramatically which I have also found since updating my video driver, so this would correlate to the IGB crashing, it only happens on some pages for me in firefox too.

bookmarking this post to come back later if/when I fix it.

I've backdated to an older kernel with the new driver and it's ok so far ... weird.

I have had some success with the 319.76 NVIDIA driver, I can't yet vouch for ship to ship combat.

Kernel is 3.12
Wine and winetricks are up to date.
Fingers crossed.
Pigs fueled up and ready to fly

IGB not crashing, firefox working in OS

Two things!

FIRST!!!

Confirming that this resolved the problem with my IGB, and it is now working. I will be marking this thread SOLVED.

I am able to patch my EVE client without using any different scripts or making any changes to my wine configuration. Wine seems to be able to handle patching and normal play just fine without any issues.

I'd suggest that you try launching EVE using your normal script whenever patching needs to be done, and then seeing if it will complete. You shouldn't have any issues.
