wine users - Apr 2009 - Failed to load wine, winecfg, wineconsole, etc.

Hopefully somebody has info on this topic.

I have just installed Wine on OpenSuse 11.1. I've tried to install MSOffice
2003 but when double clicking on setup.exe nothing happens. I also tried by
typping "wine /media/MSOfficeCD/setup.exe"  but I get this error

X Error of failed request:  XF86VidModeExtensionDisabled
  Major opcode of failed request:  135 (XFree86-VidModeExtension)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  6 (XF86VidModeGetAllModeLines)
  Serial number of failed request:  78
  Current serial number in output stream:  78

The same happens when I type winecfg or wineconsole.

I am really lost, could somebody help me??[Question] 

Thnx in advance  [Rolling Eyes]

Few things:
1. Remove/comment from v4l2convert.so preload from /etc/ld.so.preload
2. Make sure the VidMode extension is loading (check /var/log/Xorg.0.log)

Hi everybody!!
I just restarted my user session and was able to run winecfg. I achieved to run
Office 2003 installer but it suddenly shuts down just before starting to copy
files to hard disk, I also received a message from the installer sying something
like "We sorry but MSOffice could not be installed".

That surprised me so I downloaded Firefox installer. The installer ran
succesfully. The problem came when attempted to execute FireFox. I did this and
got this message:
~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Mozilla Firefox> wine firefox.exe
fixme:actctx:parse_depend_manifests Could not find dependent assembly
L"Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls"
fixme:system:SetProcessDPIAware stub!

Vitamin,
anyway I looked at the files you suggested.

> 1. Remove/comment from v4l2convert.so preload from /etc/ld.so.preload
ld.so.preload does not exist on my opensuse installation.

> 2. Make sure the VidMode extension is loading (check /var/log/Xorg.0.log)
This one is present at the log file and according to it is VidModeExtension is
loading just fine..

Well, any ideas about this new problem??

Looks like you may have to install .NET 2.0.

The process is available by searching the forum.
