EQ Linux-Based Techie Question
I should start by saying I'm a linux/programming noob.
So I have finally managed to load Titanium into my Chromebook and get everything installed. I navigate to the directory of eqgame.exe in my console, and run the command "wine eqgame.exe patchme" and this is what spits out at me before the command line goes crazy: fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),0,0x32eb18,0x00000000), stub! fixme:d3d:wined3d_check_device_format_conversion wined3d 0x12b268, adapter_idx 0, device_type WINED3D_DEVICE_TYPE_HAL, src_format WINED3DFMT_B8G8R8X8_UNORM, dst_format WINED3DFMT_B8G8R8X8_UNORM stub! fixme:d3d:wined3d_check_device_format_conversion wined3d 0x12b268, adapter_idx 0, device_type WINED3D_DEVICE_TYPE_HAL, src_format WINED3DFMT_B5G6R5_UNORM, dst_format WINED3DFMT_B5G6R5_UNORM stub! fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),0,0x32ee18,0x00000000), stub! err:x11settings:X11DRV_ChangeDisplaySettingsEx No matching mode found 1280x720x32 @0!

(XRandR 1.2) wine: Unhandled page fault on read access to 0xfffffffc at address 0x1000f0ce (thread 0009), starting debugger... What do I start tinkering with to get past this point? Any advice is appreciated! | ||

I get similar on my laptop, always assumed it was because my GPU was incompatible with EQ's 3d requirements.
Identical setup on my desktop (with a real GPU) works without issue. Do Chromebooks have a real GPU? | ||

if running from the console instead of using a script you should (once in the eq directory) type: taskset -c 0 padsp wine eqgame.exe patchme 2>/dev/null

Thanks for the reply Tann, I did infact read your guide and it certainly helped me get to this point. I just tried to run from the console with that command, when I did I received a pop-up box from Wine titled "Program Error" with text "The Program (unidentified) has encountered a serious error and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. This can be caused by a problem in the program or a deficiency in Wine. You may want to check the "Application Database" (links me to the site) for tips about running this application."
There weren't any helpful tips at that "Application Database" site, at least for this error. There is a little tiny black rectangle, probably 20px high vs 80px long, that appears in the top left of my screen now, instead of my console going nuts, so I (think) thats improvement. Any other thoughts? | ||

Update!
So I was poking around in winecfg and I checked the box to emulate a virtual desktop, and that worked wonders, in conjunction with your command. Now I am working on adjusting the black server select screen I read so much about. | ||

So now I've probably tried to sign in about 40 times, I only made it to where I could see servers once, and at that point, I tried to join both red and blue 2-3 times each and received the "error while trying to join server" message.
I feel like seeing the servers 1 out of 40 logins means something must be wrong on my end. 1/40 seems excessive. I read on the forums people logging out/back in and it usually works, but do you usually log out/in 40 times? Thoughts? | ||

I had the blank server issue for a while on my PC, fix ended up being a software update on my end to .net framework.
For my Linux laptop I've noticed if I go wireless I can't connect, no idea why, works fine if I tether to a smart phone or plug in ethernet | ||

No, I've seen this problem before. I run EQ on linux, and I've seen terrible runs of 39/40 logins showing a blank server selection screen. It's a real problem.
I live in China, so I thought it was a connection problem, but I also tried this while traveling to the USA a couple of months ago, and -- same problem. It couldn't be a blocked port, otherwise it would either always work or never work. Then, I tried running this on a Windows install from China, and I can log in without ever seeing the blank login screen. I think that rules out a network problem, so it sounds more like some sort of race condition in Wine. I've gotten pretty good at the keyboard-only login-retry procedure [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] At this point I'm not sure what causes it, or why the problem got worse with a more recent Wine version. There was a time long ago when the blank login screen under wine problem did exist but was much rarer than it is now. You mention that you see this issue only with a wireless connection. That's possible, and not something I can test as my laptop (vaio pro 11) doesn't have an ethernet port. It would be interesting if that's the issue; if I can get ahold of a USB-ethernet adapter I'll test this and update this thread with my results. | ||
