On a new box I'm preparing for someone, I did a fresh install of 10.3Alpha3 and applied factory updates just yesterday. The problem is to do with 32-bit programs, like stuff under crossover office and GooglePicasa, both of which are needed by the owner of the box. These run fine on my x86_64 laptop also with 10.3Alpha3plus, so I'm guessing there is a compat package(s) not installed. Thanks in advance for any pointers/suggestions.
Do: ulimit -v unlimited Then try again.
I also tried Picasa and did not get it to work with 10.2 (likely the same for 10.3).
wine itself works ;)
Ciao, Marcus
With ulimit set to unlimited I now get just a few memory allocation failures in Picasa and lots with word97 under crossover office 5.0.1 on the new box. On the x86_64 laptop (10.3Alphaplus upgraded from 10.2, ulimit was already at unlimited) Picasa works fine. Under crossover office 4.0 and word97 and friends are also fine. On the x86 box with crossover office 6.0.1, no problems. I shall update the new x86_64 box to CXO 6.0.1 to see if MS Office stuff works there. I'll fire questions on CXO to codeweavers list. Ran "rpm -qa|grep compat" on the one that works and the one that doesn't, but nothing stands out.
