wine + nvidia 64-bit driver?

[yogin]

Hello!

Should I expect wine to work with 64-bit nvidia driver? I'm using FC5 64-bit edition, wine is from Fedora Extras, nvidia drivers from linva repository. Generally speaking, wine works, except for 3D games. I got them all working in the past on 32bit machine, but now they all fail with errors. Most cases the error is similiar to this:

X Error of failed request: BadLength (poly request too large or internal Xlib length error)
Major opcode of failed request: 145 (GLX)
Minor opcode of failed request: 29 ()
Serial number of failed request: 4977
Current serial number in output stream: 4977

I suspect OpenGL may not be working correctly, as nvidia's libGL is 64bit and wine requires all libraries to be 32bit. Anyone got it working?

nvidia ships both 32 and 64bit libs.
have you installed the 32 bit ones too? (the nvidia-installer asks you if you want to do that).
for me wine works fine on FC5 x86_64 + nvidia driver

Please provide an nvidia-bug-report.log along with details on how this can be reproduced, and the version of wine that you're using.

Thanks,

If you have all the needed 32bit libraries installed wine should work fine. It runs fine here on my system and I do quite some wine development. Various areas of wine are undergoing rewrites and a part of the errors can be caused by that. Make sure you are using the latest wine (0.9.11).

Thank you all for very fast reply! I must apologize... I used rpm-packaged drivers from livna.org without even trying the offical driver installer from NVidia... I installed them now and indeed, they provide required 32-bit compatibility libraries. Just tried to run Hitman2 and it works in OpenGL Than you very much for help! So, a warning to all FC5 users - rpm packages from rpm.livna.org curretnly don't contain 32-bit libraries.

please fill this in livnas bugzilla.

if you use livna you have to install
xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs-32bit too
