wine users - Apr 2011 - WINE cannot find ALSA files that actually exist

Hi All,

I am trying to run Borderlands (installed via Steam, but I am running the
executable directly), and during the initial loading screen I keep getting a a
message window that says "General Protection Fault!" and has the
following information:


Code:
History: Address = 0x6987 (filename not found)
Address = 0x694356f2 (filename not found [in
C:\windows\system32\winealsa.drv]
Address = 0x694356f2 (filename not found [in
C:\windows\system32\winealsa.drv]
Address = 0x68bb704f (filename not found [in
C:\windows\system32\dsound.dll]
DSOUND_PrimaryCreate() Address = 0x68bb778b (filename not found)
[in C:\windows\system32\dsound.dll]
DirectSoundDevice_Initialize() Address = 0x68ba950c (filename not
found) [in C:\windows\system32\dsound.dll]
Address = 0x68ba995b (filename not found [in
C:\windows\system32\dsound.dll]
DirectSoundCreate8() Address = 0x68ba7f02 (filename not found) [in
C:\windows\system32\dsound.dll]
Address = 0x42ec527 (filename not found) [in C:\Program
FIles\Steam\steamapps\common\borderlands\Binaries\fmodex.dll]
Address = 0x39dd0f4 (filename not found)



The three files it complains about: winealsa.drv, dsound.dll and
fmodex.dll all exist in their respective directories.  If I run the game with
the -nosound flag, it runs fine but without sound; if I change Wine to use OSS
drivers instead the game also runs fine, but again without sound.  I also tried
running "aoss wine ./Borderlands.exe" with OSS checked in winecfg to
use the alsa-oss drivers, and still it runs with no sound.

Other games like Sims 3 run fine, with sound, using the ALSA drivers; it is only
Borderlands that complains that it cannot see these files.  I tried changing the
permissions on these files so that anyone can read, write or execute them, but I
still get the same fault, as if the files are not there.  I did some searching
but did not come up with any other posts on this particular issue.

Does anyone have any ideas?

> jack server is not running or cannot be started

Do you have jack installed?

I guess that depends on what having jack installed entails.  There is no package
just called "jack," but I have "Jackd" installed (default
server package), and "Jackd2" installed, which says it is the Jack
audio connection kit (server and example clients).  I also have
"libjack-jackd2-0" installed, which says it is the libraries for the
JACK connection kit.

I installed all of these after I saw the errors trying to run Borderlands, but
they did not change anything.  Also, Wine is not configured to use JACK.
