ok i have been using linux for about three days now and i must say it is pretty cool. my only problem is that when i tried to update halo pc to play online wine froze. so when i tried to do it manually by clicking on halo update.exe everything seemed to download fine until it started to update. then it had some weird error about internet explorer. here is a picture [Image: http://img179.imageshack.us/img179/3653/screenshotfq4.th.png ] (http://img179.imageshack.us/my.php?image=screenshotfq4.png) My specs are Q6600 2.4 GHz 4 GB of ram Bad axe 2 Mobo Nvidia 8800 GTS 512 Mb Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy P.S. Man! It took me like a half hour to answer that current maintainer question to register... I think you should change that...

Also, it says that wine after 0.9.42 might hang, have you tried 0.9.42?

I think you should change that...Don't worry about this, it is a simple way of checking that you are a real man and not a bot. The last time I applied for appdb, I simply said something like "I own this app and I would be glad to maintain it".

read my post that is above yours
im sorry, i had edited my post i thought you would have been able to seen it but i guess not. here is what i added EDIT ok i am about 100% positive that installing wine 0.9.42 will fix the problem. but i have some problems. i found the sources to compile because i cant find a precompiled version for x64 gutsy anywhere. and when i try and compile it, it fails. what i typed in the terminal alex at localhost:~$ cd Desktop alex at localhost:~/Desktop$ cd wine-0.9.42 alex at localhost:~/Desktop/wine-0.9.42$ ./tools/wineinstall WINE Installer v0.75 Running configure... configure: creating cache config.cache checking build system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu checking host system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking for gcc... gcc -m32 checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables See `config.log' for more details. Configure failed, aborting install. alex at localhost:~/Desktop/wine-0.9.42$
well i am compiling wine as we speak and will try halo tomorrow. there was a guide on the wine website (go figure).
ok after i run the command CC="gcc-4.2 -m32" LDFLAGS="-L/lib32 -L/usr/lib32 -L`pwd`/lib32 -Wl,-rpath,/lib32 -Wl,-rpath,/usr/lib32" ./configure i get the following warnings configure: WARNING: No OpenGL library found on this system. Wine will be build without OpenGL or Direct3D support. configure: WARNING: FreeType development files not found. Fonts will not be built. Dialog text may be invisible or unaligned. i believe that they should be fixed before the continuation of compiling. can anyone tell me what i would need to get from synaptic package manager to fix this? i got the information from http://wiki.winehq.org/WineOn64bit#head-15ce773b2453307f593a3045e558b30a0e8ed64d thanks a lot.

I found a way to fix it though w/o re-installing wine. The problem lies with the program chktrust.exe. On wine's forums, the user Jesse Fox described how to compile your own 'chktrust.exe' program so that it won't give you that error. Basically you have to compile your own chktrust.exe program and then replace the existing one with your new one. After that, you run the haloupdate.exe program and everything should work. I've compiled this program myself, so if you trust me and/or you don't want to compile your own program, you can download my attached file here: http://www.nabble.com/file/p18425763/chktrust.exe chktrust.exe . If you don't trust me or want to compile the program yourself, see Jesse's post here: http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=2720 Good Luck! -a -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Halo-PC-update-error-tp16241817p18425763.html Sent from the Wine - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
