Mageia forum

logged in and installed updates as they were there. Noticed one of the updates referred to wine 32, but didn't pay attention and updated regardless.
I now find Quicken deluxe 98 which ran under wine is not working at all, just shows the mini icon by the cursor bouncing for a while then the icon disappears.
Have not done anything further yet as I need this program and it's data.
Advice welcome.

What Mageia version? And please show the output of

Code: Select all: rpm -qa | grep wine urpmq --list-media active --list-url

I'd suggest you look at the properties of the shortcut which should start Quicken, copy the command that it should run,
enter that in a terminal and post the complete output of that, too.

Code: Select all: [user1@localhost ~]$ rpm -qa | grep wine wine64-gecko-2.24-3.mga5 lib64kwineffects1-4.11.16-5.mga5 wine64-1.7.30-1.mga5 wine-mono-4.5.2-4.mga5 [user1@localhost ~]$ urpmq --list-media active --list-url Core Release ftp://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/mageia.org/pub/mageia/distrib/5/x86_64/media/core/release Core Updates ftp://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/mageia.org/pub/mageia/distrib/5/x86_64/media/core/updates Nonfree Release ftp://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/mageia.org/pub/mageia/distrib/5/x86_64/media/nonfree/release Nonfree Updates ftp://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/mageia.org/pub/mageia/distrib/5/x86_64/media/nonfree/updates Tainted Release ftp://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/mageia.org/pub/mageia/distrib/5/x86_64/media/tainted/release Tainted Updates ftp://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/mageia.org/pub/mageia/distrib/5/x86_64/media/tainted/updates Core 32bit Release ftp://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/mageia.org/pub/mageia/distrib/5/i586/media/core/release Core 32bit Updates ftp://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/mageia.org/pub/mageia/distrib/5/i586/media/core/updates Nonfree 32bit Release ftp://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/mageia.org/pub/mageia/distrib/5/i586/media/nonfree/release Nonfree 32bit Updates ftp://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/mageia.org/pub/mageia/distrib/5/i586/media/nonfree/updates Tainted 32bit Updates ftp://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/mageia.org/pub/mageia/distrib/5/i586/media/tainted/updates [user1@localhost ~]$

You missed the other essential part of my post:

Anyways, you currently only have wine64 installed, which is only intended to run Win64 programs.
See earlier threads, e.g. viewtopic.php?f=7&t=8865 and viewtopic.php?f=41&t=5082
Best remove the -64 packages and install normal 32bit wine, as root via e.g.

Code: Select all: urpme wine64-gecko wine64 urpmi wine32 wine wine-gecko

received the following warning

Code: Select all: [root@localhost user1]# urpmi wine32 wine wine-gecko Some requested packages cannot be installed: libmesagl1-10.5.9-3.mga5.tainted.i586 (due to unsatisfied libtxc-dxtn) wine-1.7.30-1.mga5.i586 (due to unsatisfied wine32[== 1:1.7.30-1.mga5]) wine32-1.7.30-1.mga5.i586 (due to conflicts with libmesagl1-10.5.9-3.mga5.tainted.i586, due to conflicts with libmesagl1-10.5.9-3.mga5.tainted.i586) Continue installation anyway? (Y/n)

Could not continue with install - desktop has now changed dramatically. all effects lost.

You're missing the Tainted 32bit Release repo, so you cannot install some mandatory libraries. Please enable it via http://doc.mageia.org/mcc/5/en/content/ ... media.html and try again.
desktop effects are lost because it seems somehow you uninstalled more then just the wine packages I mentioned, seems you also removed some mesa packages.

Thanks for your help and advice Doktor, but it seems I have wrecked the installation. (might have been due to lib64kwineffects1?).
I have downloaded and installed mageia5 on a separate hard drive, will copy home folder across as a backup, will then do a re-install on the original drive.

Well, why did you remove it in the first place, never recommended that. Did you run the suggested command?
