Wine 10.3 and 10.4 don't seem to work with kernel 5.4

Support Software & Applications
1

I cannot get the latest wine versions to work. wine 10.2-2 works with no issues, but 10.3 and 10.4 simply stall. Running from the terminal I get no debugging info or text at all, just a black screen, even trying to run things like “winecfg” or “wine explorer.exe”. Looking at XFCE’s task manager I notice wineserver trying to do something but it looks like it’s just stalled, utilizing a constant 13% of cpu. I’ve tried deleting the .wine directory and that doesn’t do anything, and wine still stalls .

Any ideas how to go about figuring out this issue? Thanks.

Edit: it looks like wine doesn’t seem to work with kernel 5.4.

For the sake of verification - on my desktop system - which does not utilise wine at all

sudo pacman -Syu wine
Execution

I tested on both Xorg and Wayland - no issues.

 $ pamac info wine | grep -e Version 
Version               : 10.4-1

Suggesting a troubleshooting approach is next to impossible when it cannot be reproduced.

Have you tried backing up /home/your_user_name/.wine/

Then launching a windows application as it will create a new .wine configuration. Maybe something in .wine is corrupt?

4

Yeah. I tried simply renaming the .wine directory, and allowed wine to recreate the .wine directory. It simply states that it’s recreating the directory, and then hangs and does nothing.

I’ve just tested changing my kernel version. I normally use kernel 5.4 because it works best with my computer. After trying kernel 6.12 wine ran with no issues. Not sure what’s going on, and why wine doesn’t work with kernel 5.4 or 5.10. It works with 5.15.

And we can’t possibly know either.

Next time you have issues and open a Support request, please remember to include your system information which will allow others to more easily see whether other factors might be contributing to an issue.

Regards.
