XServer taken down by Wine segfaults
Hi fokls, I just recently rolled back to Debian and I'm currently on sid. After installing wine I was quite confused to find out it doesn't work - at least with my current version of the xorg-server. I've tried both the official debian build of wine as well as a custom git-build I compiled myself. That'd be version .53 for both. xorg version is, as reported by X -version: X.Org X Server 1.4.0.90 Release Date: 5 September 2007 X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0 Build Operating System: Linux Debian (xorg-server 2:1.4.1~git20080118-1) Current Operating System: Linux brmbr 2.6.23.gmork #2 SMP PREEMPT Thu Jan 10 17:19:31 CET 2008 i686 Build Date: 18 January 2008 09:38:43PM Everytime I try to start wine, X explodes on me, throwing me back to a VT. Log messages are as follows: Backtrace: 0: /usr/X11R6/bin/X(xf86SigHandler+0x7e) [0x80c674e] 1: [0xb7f65420] Fatal server error: Caught signal 11. Server aborting that's from /var/log/slim.log. The problem is: googling for wine, segfault, debian and xserver is not really productive, as there seems to be quite a variety of problems involving all of the above and some pages are as old as 2002. So I'm merely asking if anyone has the same problems on a similar setup - are there known issues with wine under debian? Probably I should mention I'm using the binary nvidia drivers. Did not try it with other drivers yet, but I don't think that should have any impact on it - it fails with _anything_ just running wine is enough to bring that down. Reproducible: always ;-) Should I file a bug-report? Against which package? Thanks, Aleks signature.asc Description: Digital signature

I had this same problem last month. Sometimes, when xorg is upgraded, the binary nvidia drivers need to be reinstalled to get opengl rendering to work (wine runs direct draw or something that using opengl). If this is the case, running glxgears will also crash your xserver. The solution is to reinstall the binary nvidia drivers. MM

If this is the case, running glxgears will also crash your xserver. The solution is to reinstall the binary nvidia drivers. May not be necessary. This usually happens when the library is not correct. The package xserver-xorg-core has libglx.so in /usr/lib/xorg/modules/extensions. The nvidia binary driver also puts its own version of libglx.so.100.x there. The install script of xserver-xorg-core removes this lib during an upgrade. So, if xserver-xorg-core is updated, you can be sure that libglx.so is bound to be replaced. Just symlink it back to the one provided by nvidia binary and restart X. There is no need to reinstall the nvidia binary driver.
