| Guest90988 | Hello ! My PC is not starting Xubuntu 16.04. It's reboot automatically. Whats the solution for this ? | 19:56 |
| EmilyM | hello? | 20:56 |
| knome | hello. | 20:56 |
| EmilyM | I'm having a heck of a time instlling wine on a computer supporting Xbuntu and am wondering if I could get a small advice? | 20:57 |
| flocculant | EmilyM: you need to tell us what the problem you've got actually is :) | 20:59 |
| EmilyM | legit, but i didn't want to spew about it if this was the wrong place. | 21:00 |
| flocculant | it is the right place - hope we can help | 21:00 |
| EmilyM | I'm getting a dependancy error when I try 'sudo apt-get install --install-recommends winehq-stable' | 21:02 |
| EmilyM | the dependancy error says i need 'wine-stable (=2.0.4`xenial) | 21:02 |
| EmilyM | but I know little of xbuntu/ubuntu and I'm lost in a dependancy maze | 21:03 |
| flocculant | winehq-stable isn't in the repo's - what have you read to lead you to that package? | 21:04 |
| EmilyM | the winehq wiki download page | 21:05 |
| EmilyM | This: https://wiki.winehq.org/Ubuntu | 21:06 |
| EmilyM | followed all the previous instructions, and troubleshot a few dependencies there, but after updating I'm stuf | 21:06 |
| EmilyM | stuck | 21:06 |
| flocculant | any reason why you didn't just install the version available from the system? | 21:09 |
| EmilyM | ignorance probably | 21:09 |
| flocculant | also what happens if you don't --install-recommends ? | 21:09 |
| EmilyM | hmmm dunno, I'll see | 21:10 |
| EmilyM | same dependency issue | 21:10 |
| flocculant | ok | 21:10 |
| EmilyM | looks like software only has the dev version and winetricks, which I am led to believe is outdated | 21:12 |
| flocculant | don't really know what to suggest other than undoing what you did - and then installing the repo version of wine | 21:12 |
| flocculant | https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=wine&suite=default§ion=all&arch=any&searchon=names | 21:12 |
| flocculant | that's some of the wine stuff available | 21:12 |
| flocculant | you might find someone in #ubuntu who uses wine - a more speedy channel | 21:14 |
| flocculant | also you could hopefully purge this ppa you added - which will set your system back to default from it | 21:15 |
| flocculant | just checking it out in a vm | 21:16 |
| EmilyM | would the command for that be 'sudo apt-get ppa-purge <repository title>'? | 21:17 |
| flocculant | likely | 21:17 |
| flocculant | rather yes should be - never used it with something that wasn't a ppa | 21:17 |
| dax | not quite, it's more like sudo ppa-purge ppa:repository-name/subdirectory | 21:19 |
| dax | (without apt-get) | 21:19 |
| flocculant | dax EmilyM - sorry only have reading - in the vm | 21:20 |
| flocculant | which is causing issues with no release file for me ... | 21:20 |
| EmilyM | hmm I suppose the repository name would be the website I got it from? | 21:21 |
| flocculant | EmilyM: check what the ppa is called - look in /etc/apt/sources.list/d/ for it | 21:21 |
| flocculant | nvm - adds it direct to sources.list | 21:22 |
| flocculant | EmilyM: have you actually managed to install anything from there yet? | 21:25 |
| EmilyM | lol. I got the repository key and the repository I think? | 21:26 |
| flocculant | ok | 21:26 |
| flocculant | we can undo - and then you can get it from the repo | 21:26 |
| EmilyM | also, sudo ppa-purge command not found | 21:26 |
| flocculant | yea - have to install that, but don't worry | 21:26 |
| flocculant | Alt+F2 | 21:26 |
| flocculant | pkexec mousepad /etc/apt/sources.list | 21:27 |
| flocculant | a text file will open | 21:27 |
| flocculant | after you give it password | 21:27 |
| flocculant | find the line that has winehq in it - add # to the BEGINNING of the line | 21:28 |
| flocculant | save and close | 21:28 |
| EmilyM | hmmm several lines have wine in them, all start with # deb-src | 21:29 |
| flocculant | ignore lines that start with # | 21:29 |
| flocculant | none without #? | 21:29 |
| flocculant | # ? | 21:30 |
| EmilyM | one | 21:30 |
| flocculant | put # at the beginning | 21:30 |
| EmilyM | okay, #, saved and closed | 21:30 |
| flocculant | open a terminal | 21:31 |
| flocculant | sudo apt update | 21:31 |
| flocculant | does that give any error? | 21:31 |
| EmilyM | no, but two packadges can be upgraded | 21:32 |
| EmilyM | lol | 21:32 |
| flocculant | do that first just in case (sudo apt upgrade) | 21:32 |
| flocculant | then sudo apt install wine-stable | 21:32 |
| EmilyM | unable to locate packadge wine-stable | 21:33 |
| flocculant | EmilyM: what version of Xubuntu are you using? | 21:34 |
| EmilyM | 16.04 | 21:35 |
| flocculant | EmilyM: try wine instead of wine-stable | 21:35 |
| EmilyM | depends on wine 1.6 | 21:36 |
| flocculant | try install wine1.6 | 21:36 |
| EmilyM | I think thats the older version, Its on wine 2.0.4 now I think? | 21:37 |
| flocculant | yes - but as you've found out - that causes issues with 16.04 ... | 21:38 |
| flocculant | is there something in wine 2.04 that you KNOW you need? | 21:38 |
| flocculant | https://askubuntu.com/questions/151283/why-dont-the-ubuntu-repositories-have-the-latest-versions-of-software | 21:39 |
| EmilyM | depends: wine1.6-amd64 (= 1:1.6.2-0ubuntu14.2) but it is not going to be installed | 21:39 |
| EmilyM | I'm pretty sure the older version would be totally fine | 21:39 |
| flocculant | EmilyM: ok - not sure what to suggest to be honest - not looked at wine myself for many years | 21:39 |
| flocculant | if you can wait I can boot 16.04 in a vm | 21:40 |
| EmilyM | I really appreciate you taking the time to troubleshoot a bit with me | 21:41 |
| flocculant | no problem :) | 21:41 |
| flocculant | though if anyone watching uses wine - feel free to jump in :) | 21:41 |
| flocculant | EmilyM: so I booted a 16.04 vm, following the instructions at the site you went to - worked for me (or would if I let it - vm has hundreds of updates to apply) | 21:50 |
| flocculant | I'm getting the same dependency issue as you did from the repos | 21:50 |
| EmilyM | so its def a version issue | 21:51 |
| flocculant | maybe try asking in #ubuntu this issue isn't an Xubuntu one as it stands, so people there should be able to help you more | 21:51 |
| EmilyM | ok. I'll try there and #WineHQ I think | 21:51 |
| flocculant | okey doke | 21:51 |
| EmilyM | thank you muchly | 21:51 |
| flocculant | sorry I coudn't help | 21:52 |
| EmilyM | you did plenty ^_^ | 21:52 |
| flocculant | :) | 21:52 |
| EmilyM | flocculant, finally got it installed, now to get it working! thank you so much | 22:47 |
| zleap | what is flocculant ? | 22:49 |
| EmilyM | someone's nick | 22:49 |
| zleap | ok | 22:49 |
| zleap | sorry | 22:49 |
| EmilyM | they were helping me earlier | 22:49 |
| zleap | ah what you getting working then | 22:50 |
| EmilyM | wine on xbuntu 16.04 | 22:51 |
| zleap | ah | 22:51 |
| zleap | not tried wine in ages | 22:51 |
| EmilyM | which has been a pain for the last three hours or so | 22:51 |
| zleap | i have been trying to get warzone2100 to work, it seems broken on mint | 22:52 |
| EmilyM | I know nothing bout ubuntu or xbuntu, so that statement only makes vague sense to me | 22:54 |
| zleap | it is a game | 22:57 |
| zleap | only it crashes when run | 22:57 |
| EmilyM | those were the two things I could extrapolate. lol | 22:57 |
| EmilyM | is it a game you play via wine/other emulators? | 22:58 |
| zleap | native to linux | 23:00 |
| EmilyM | mm | 23:01 |
| zleap | ok it seg faults | 23:01 |
| zleap | i need to figure out how to create a bug report for it | 23:02 |
| zleap | hmm this not look good, launchpad said last modified 2010-10-02 | 23:04 |
| zleap | it looks abandoned :( | 23:06 |
| EmilyM | :< | 23:09 |
