[gentoo-user] Wine problems

[s***@shitposting.expert]

Hello ml readers.
I tried playing a game (the coffin of Andy and Leyley) through wine.
However, I see some issues.
The game spawns a window, but is stuck on a loading screen.
Things like this are in wine's output:

0290:err:winediag:ntlm_check_version ntlm_auth was not found. Make sure
that ntlm_auth >= 3.0.25 is in your path. Usually, you can find it in
the winbind package of your distribution.
0290:err:ntlm:ntlm_LsaApInitializePackage no NTLM support, expect
problems

Also, I see things like this:

This tells me that wine doesn't have permissions to use my sound card,
even after setting it's /dev files to 666 perms and running wine as
root.
Any idea how I should solve this?

Fixed the sound issue.

I read some more about that and it seems that it's needed for
authentication, something that game doesn't have.
This may be more concerning:

Hey,
I think you can fix the ntlm_auth errors by just building your wine package
with the "samba" use flag.

Also, could I get what GPU are you using?

adding to the conversation once more, on protondb, the game is rated
"platinum" so you could try to run it with proton from steam.
if it is not officially supported you may need to go to Steam (top
right) -> Steam Play -> Enable Steam Play for all games.
if you do not own it on steam, try this
https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/pvzn03/running_nonsteam_games_using_proton/

May the force be with you,

There is a problem with that.
I have a desktop and a laptop running gentoo.
On the desktop, I have no-multilib and wine's wow64 mode doesn't
properly work.
On the laptop, I have multilib and steam, but proton and wine seem to
not be able to handle switching between the integrated gpu and the
dedicated gpu.
And I also cannot start xorg on the dedicated gpu and skip the
integrated gpu.
https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/7331

I eventually played the game on a windows laptop.
Will probably do the same once the game gets finally finished.
Sad that this is how it still is on linux, but it is what it is.
Maybe one day, I won't even have to look up if a game is linux native or
through proton.

dedicated gpu.
And I also cannot start xorg on the dedicated gpu and skip the
integrated gpu.
https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/7331
I eventually played the game on a windows laptop.
Will probably do the same once the game gets finally finished.
Sad that this is how it still is on linux, but it is what it is.
Maybe one day, I won't even have to look up if a game is linux native or
through proton.

one more idea, you could try to disable your integrated gpu in your
bios, and then boot only using the Nvidia GPU, just an idea,
but if you send your laptop model, i can provide more straight-forward
instructions for this process

It's an acer nitro 5. I don't see any option to do that in bios.

so, i did a bit of diging, and i found that Acer bios does not have
the option to disable the iGPU in the bios, but it does support Nvidia
Optimus. you could try to configure that, but just an FYI, it is
proprietary.

On the desktop, I have no-multilib and wine's wow64 mode doesn't properly work.

here, i think you could try the flatpak version of steam.

That needs wireplumber, which needs udev, and I don't want to install
udev or anything else related to systemd.

Tried doing the optimus thing. Just like without optimus, I start xorg
but I see nothing.
Xorg and dwm properly start, I tried typing in a terminal 'speaker-test'
and it worked.
So the problem there isn't that xorg freezes or something, it's that I
can't see the x server.

i am truly sorry, but i cannot understand you. so are you saying that you
can't start xorg at all, and see some kinf of black screen?
if so, make sure to follow the "Before starting X", also make sure to take
a look at the "xorg.conf" chapter so you have X configured right. and also
see the configuration for your display manager (sddm, light-dm etc.)
if you can loadup xorg, try switching back to the igpu by using
"optimus-manager --switch integrated"
it will log you out, so be careful.

chceck the xorg log it should be in /var/log/Xorg.<some number>.log.
also check if both the nvidia and intel drivers are loaded correctly.

i think the third line from this citation may be the concern, make

could you send your xorg.conf? it seems to me that the config that

i think the fix for your problem will be adding the second monitor to
the xorg.conf, you only have 1 monitor configured.
would you mind sending me your original xorg config if you still have it?

also try running xrandr (after starting X), then see all of the
outputs and add something like this to your X config

Post by s***@shitposting.expert
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "THE THING XRANDR OUTPUTS"
Option "DPMS"
EndSection
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 3200 x 1080, maximum 8192 x 8192

HDMI-1 connected primary 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 531mm x 299mm

1920x1080i 60.00 50.00 59.94
1680x1050 59.88
…

if you can't figure it out, send the output, i will help you write the config ;D

i think the third line from this citation may be the concern, make

could you send your xorg.conf? it seems to me that the config that

forgot to clarify, by "the thing xrandr outputs" i mean something like
"Monitor0" or "VGA-1" - you can see it in the example output also.

Still no luck.

could you send your "xrandr" output? (you need to start X to run it) and
your X log?

Added the modified config as an attachment, i configured another

section at the bottom of the config, its identifier is "Screen1", also
added it to the server layout on top of the config.
rename your old xorg.conf and download this, then restart X, and

I added all the logs I found as attachments, maybe one of them tells you
something. They seem pretty recent, oldest is an hour old.
The latest is Xorg.0.log

okay, i think you could try deleting (or comenting, it is up to you) the
"GPUDevice" line from the second screen section (the one at the bottom of
the config, also, in the config, edit the resolution, it's the last
"Option" in the second screen section.
save the config, and restart X

Tried commenting out the GPUDevice part. No change.
What should I set the resolution to? My laptop's screen is 1920*1080.

the second screen parameter is configured for your hdmi monitor, so set it
to the resolution of it.

okay, then dont worry about this.
chceck the xorg log it should be in /var/log/Xorg.<some number>.log.
also check if both the nvidia and intel drivers are loaded correctly.
May the Force be with you,
Vít Smolík.

I added the Xorg.0.log from optimus as an attachment.
[ 32496.682] (II) modeset(1): using default device
[ 32496.682] (EE) Screen 1 deleted because of no matching config section.
[ 32496.682] (II) UnloadModule: "modesetting"

i think the third line from this citation may be the concern, make
sure you installed the proprietary nvidia drivers, and disabled
nouveau (pretty sure you already did that)
could you send your xorg.conf? it seems to me that the config that
nvidia-xconfig made is faulty.

I added my xorg.conf as an attachment

okay, try adding this line right after the "Device" line in the
GPUDevice "InactiveDevice1"

Post by s***@shitposting.expert
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Device0"
GPUDevice "InactiveDevice1"
Monitor "Monitor0"
DefaultDepth 24
Option "AllowEmptyInitialConfiguration" "True"
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
EndSubSection
EndSection

(i don't know how the formating will look in this email, but the
"GPUDevice" line will be indented the same as the "Device" line)
after that, save the config file and start X

Doing this did have an effect, but not the desired effect.
I still don't see xorg's display on the laptop screen, but if I
connect an hdmi cable to the laptop, I get output on an external
monitor.

Good news, proton works.
I don't get sound with proton though, but that is a known issues with
steam's runtime that can be fixed.
Thanks for helping me so far. Maybe I can even get the display to work
on the laptop's screen.

i think the fix for your problem will be adding the second monitor to
the xorg.conf, you only have 1 monitor configured.
would you mind sending me your original xorg config if you still have it?

The xorg config I sent is the only one I had on this laptop.
Before trying this, I didn't have an xorg config on this laptop.

also try running xrandr (after starting X), then see all of the
outputs and add something like this to your X config

Decided to give this one more shot.

Finally got it to work.
I added the working xorg.conf for nvidia prime as an attachment.
Maybe it will help someone else too.
Please tell me if you see anything in it that shouldn't be there.
Thanks to all who helped me with this.

Tried doing the optimus thing. Just like without optimus, I start xorg
but I see nothing.
Xorg and dwm properly start, I tried typing in a terminal
'speaker-test'
and it worked.
So the problem there isn't that xorg freezes or something, it's that I
can't see the x server.

i am truly sorry, but i cannot understand you. so are you saying that you
can't start xorg at all, and see some kinf of black screen?
if so, make sure to follow the "Before starting X", also make sure to take
a look at the "xorg.conf" chapter so you have X configured right. and also
see the configuration for your display manager (sddm, light-dm etc.)
if you can loadup xorg, try switching back to the igpu by using
"optimus-manager --switch integrated"
it will log you out, so be careful.
May the Force be with you,
Vít Smolík.

I tried to add an attachment, but it seems it didn't go through.
I can start xorg via startx/xinit. All I see is it's startup text and
nothing else.
I do not have any package installed that provides the command
optimus-manager, which you reference in your post.

Here is my .xinitrc:

#!/bin/sh

xrandr --setprovideroutputsource modesetting NVIDIA-0 &
xrandr --auto &
slstatus &
xcompmgr &
/usr/bin/feh --bg-fill '/home/stefan/images/wallpapers/2.jpg' &
doas chown -R root:audio /dev/snd/* &
doas chmod 660 /dev/snd/* &
#curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/StevenBlack/hosts/master/hosts >
/etc/hosts &
exec dwm

Can you please be more explicit about what you do and what you see?
How exactly do you start xorg? When you say you see nothing, do you
mean a completely black screen? If that's the case, then why do you
say that Sorg and dwm properly start. If they properly started, you
would probably see what you expected. Finally, when you say you can't
see the x server, what is it you expect to see? I don't think the
xserver displays anything of it's own, it displays stuff for other
programs. Have you looked in the X log for any relevant output?
(probably /var/log/Xorg.0.log.)
