wine users - Feb 2012 - Problem with wine and Firefox, Thunderbird or Seamonkey...

Hi all,

I Use thunderbird and firefox, and sometimes Seamonkey on my job (onto windows
7, 64 bits) and at home (under Ubuntu 11.10 64 bits), so for that, I use Wine,
which was very nice until few weeks when I had error message and that
doesn't worked more...
For this use, I use portable software (from portable apps), and I already post
my problem on other forums
(http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=2428361 or
http://portableapps.com/node/30460) and it seems that still come to Wine. 

Does anybody have got this problem?

Could help me diagnose my problem, I propose to carry out tests etc. to find
where it comes from?

Thank you.

Are you aware that all of those apps have native Linux versions?

Don't expect people to read a thread on some other forum just to find out
what the problem is.

What Wine version? If it's not the latest development release, upgrade. If
it doesn't work in the latest development release, post terminal output. If
long, use pastebin and post a link here.

Hi On?sime,

please start with a new wineprefix (this is basically the ".wine"
folder, in which wine stores all its config files and installed programs). You
can do this most easily by moving/renaming your .wine folder, an 'empty'
.wine folder with default config will automatically be created by the next run
of wine, after some tests you can move it back and you will have your original
wine config restored.

Please run from command line and post terminal output.

And while it is true that apps with linux ports won't get high priority when
it comes to bugfixes, it is perfectly legitimate to file bugs about them, in the
long run they will have to be fixed, too. Biggest problem may be, that if you
file a bug for e.g. Firefox 10, at the time the bug gets fixed, Firefox 23 or so
might be uptodate version ;-)

That function was added in 1.3.29, so clearly you didn't upgrade to the
latest development release as I told you to do in my very first response. 
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25364

As I said yesterday, I tested all three apps in 1.4-rc5 and all three work fine
out of the box.

Get the latest version from there:

https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-wine/+archive/ppa

read explanations about how to add it to your sources.list

Excellent, that run very well!!! Thank you very much for all people who help
me...
I will write a post in all other forum where I ask help before (portableapps,
mozilla....).

Many thanks
