[Wine] wineconsole crashes - what am I doing wrong?
Dear All, I am running Wine under Linux - Suse 10.1 (kernel 2.6.16). GUI apps work fine (eg "wine notepad", "wine matlab") and wcmd works too ("wine wcmd"), but any CUI program causes a crash, like this: /home/gcunning> wineconsole --backend=user "c:freedos\edit.com" Warning: unprotecting memory to allow real-mode calls. NULL pointer accesses will no longer be caught. wine: Unhandled page fault on read access to 0x00004f20 at address 0x401e39df (thread 000e), starting debugger... Things I have tried: 1. I read the instructions 2. I upgraded Wine to the latest version (9.32) - no change 3. I moved the executables to a Win 95 partition and tried to run them from there - still no change 4. I rebooted the machine into Windows95 and tested the executables from there - everything worked. I can't believe this is a major bug, but on the other hand I can't think of anything else to try! All ideas gratefully received. Geof This message has been scanned for viruses by BlackSpider MailControl - www.blackspider.com

[Wine] wineconsole crashes - what am I doing wrong?
Hi Geoffrey, This is due to the fact edit.com is a DOS app. Better use its windows port, downloadable at http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=188409 I already tested it under wine 0.9.32, it works in a reliable manner.
