Hi, I have got a Dell Lattitude D520 with 1GB ram and have tried to get working WINE using the file working on my computer. However I have failed.
I have 3 partitions, 1st Partition FAT32 of 40 GB used by DEll for recovery software and left blank for the rest.
Partition 2 : has WINDOWS XP loaded is also 40 GB.
Partition 3 & 4 is ext2 on which I loaded Ubuntu Daper Drake 6.06, but which is not running due to mbr problems.

When I try to load the file wine-0.9.28.dsl from my DSL-N linux running computer using mydsl-load wine-0.9.28.dsl and then I enter wine "program name " , I get funny messages (probably debuging information).
I cannot run the winecfg program too.
also it keeps saying

"wine: glibc >= 2.3 without NPTL or TLS is not a supported combination.
It will most likely crash. Please upgrade to a glibc with NPTL support."

can anyone help me to get my "WINE" running ?

The different versions of Wine in the repository were compiled on various versions of DSL, whichever was current at the time. I have gotten the message you described on other Linux's. This error started poping up in the wine-0.9.2* "series" and is due to not having the proper glibc library. Your best bet is to try an older version of wine (if available) or standard DSL.

Thanks for your reply, I think it is u only, who have prepared the dsl version of wine. the current version is 9.38 , couldn't u prepare the dsl of the new version ? Also the 9.28 was tried on a HD installed DSL Std. there too it did not work. Also I read the threads at WINE forum too, seems that even for the latest UBUNTU 7.04 the same problems crop up.

Thanks . can I post the debug matter that crops up ? Also how do I acess drive d: ? the .wine directory containing msdos something only has c_drive no d_drive where my XP exists

Wine 9.28 works well on DSL3.3 (.unc version). The message

"wine: glibc >= 2.3 without NPTL or TLS is not a supported combination.
It will most likely crash. Please upgrade to a glibc with NPTL support."

is normal & you can ignore it. In fact it's probably a good sign as it means it's basically working.

Try something simple first - notepad or similar so you can tell if it's the application or wine that's giving the problem.

drive_c is created with wineconfig - it's nothing to do with your drive c: or d: on other partitions.

lang: Thanks for your input. Its been awhile since I had messed with my DSL/Wine combo, and I didn't remember seeing that.

Ankuryu: I will look into compiling the newest Wine. I will probably compile with OpenGL support. It might show a few errors if your not using OpenGL (nVidia drivers, etc.), but shouldn't hurt the basic functionality.
