Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: wine1.2
This concerns wine1.2 1.2.1-0ubuntu1 in Ubuntu Maverick.
I went to start up an application in Wine, one that I had used many
times in previous Ubuntu releases. Instead of taking a few seconds to
start up as usual, Wine hung, not even mapping a window for the Windows
desktop. After a few minutes, it printed the following message to the
terminal:
err:process:__wine_kernel_init boot event wait timed out
I left it like that for a few hours, in case Wine was taking its time
examining the available fonts on my system (which has happened before),
but I returned to find no further progress had occurred.
Note that the hang is without any visible CPU consumption. I can't tell
what Wine is doing during the hang.
Thinking that the problem may have had to do with a wonky Wine prefix, I
created a new, minimal one, like so...
/tmp/wine
├── dosdevices/
│ └── c: -> ../drive_c/
└── drive_c/
...and invoked winecfg, like so:
hostname:/tmp/wine/drive_c$ WINEPREFIX=/tmp/wine winecfg
Yep. It hangs, all right. If I hit Ctrl-C after the aforementioned
warning message, I get a bit more info:
err:process:__wine_kernel_init boot event wait timed out
^Cerr:module:attach_process_dlls "gdi32.dll" failed to initialize, aborting
err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization for
L"C:\\windows\\system32\\winecfg.exe" failed, status c000013a
If I do the same with WINEDEBUG=relay, the terminal output goes up to
[...]
001a:Call ntdll.RtlQueryEnvironmentVariable_U(00000000,ffe51908,ffe51900)
ret=7b84e860
001a:Ret ntdll.RtlQueryEnvironmentVariable_U() retval=c0000100 ret=7b84e860
001a:Call ntdll.RtlInitUnicodeString(7bcb63b0,00114b58

ntdll.NtWaitForMultipleObjects(00000001,ffe517d8,00000000,00000000,ffe518d8)
ret=7b868476
and there it sits, forever. (The complete output is attached.)
