There is an issue with the latest WINE releases that cause EVE to crash randomly for no reason at all. In the last couple of days the person that introduced the patch that "created" this problem discovered that the issue is directly tied to the fact that although EVE (and other games) report as being able to run in high memory location, it includes d3d9x, which CANNOT run in high memory, so certain memory ops can throw the client out of range for d3d9x, and cause the client to crash hard. So, without further adieu, here's how to get EVE running on just about every linux system out there.
Please note, although this SHOULD work on most linux systems, I'd like to state that this guide was written with X86 version of Fedora Core 11. Milage may vary; if you had to do something a bit different, let me know and I'll modify my instructions accordingly!
- Uninstall wine from your repo if it is already installed. You may want to remove your ~/.wine directory also (which will remove all installed apps); but it isn't absolutely necessary.
- Make sure you have installed the recommended packages for wine. Running "./configure" later on should produce no warnings about missing libraries.
- Open a console and navigate to ~/ (home)
- Download the bleeding edge source for WINE (make a sandwich while you wait):
- git clone git://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git ~/wine-git
- Navigate to the new source path:
- Download the low-memory bug patch and save it to ~/wine-git (virtual.diff):
- Apply the patch. It should say "patching file dlls/ntdll/virtual.c" alone with no warnings or errors.:
- Compile WINE (and make a lot of sandwiches while you wait). Please note that you will have to "sudo" or "su -" or whatnot to obtain root privlages in order to run the "make install" command properly:
- ./configure
- make depend && make
- make install
- Download or otherwise obtain "d3dx9_35.dll" and "d3dx9_36.dll" and place it in ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/
- Run "winecfg", click on the audio tab, make sure the audio test works, press apply, then click OK to close the box.
- Download winetricks:
- wget http://www.kegel.com/wine/winetricks
- Install corefonts and vc6 runtime (for good measure) via winetricks:
- Run "regedit" and add the following entries. Note that you may have to add the keys to Current User, and that all values are of type string:
- [Software\\Wine\\Direct3D]
"DirectDrawRenderer"="opengl" "MaxFragmentUniforms"="1024" "MaxVaryings"="52" "MaxVertexUniforms"="1024" "OffscreenRenderingMode"="fbo" (if you have graphical glitches with interface, change it in "Backbuffer" ) "PixelShaderMode"="enabled" "VertexShaderMode"="hardware" "VideoMemorySize"="(you videocard memory here)"
Once you have done all that, you should be able to run EVE with all of the settings maxed out (assuming you have a decent video card of course). Although there are minor problems here and there, it seems that 99% of everything looks and runs fine, including EVE voice and shaders. The UI is near flawless, except that you can resize window into unusable negative width/heights (so don't do that :p). Also, some people have issues alt-tabbing out of EVE (causing a crash), you can fix this by running EVE in a window the same size as the desktop (thus effectively being full screen but not exclusive). You may also want to disable desktop effects (compiz, etc) if you are experiencing weird problems as well.
Hope this was helpful!

Edited by: Essial on 05/08/2009 19:30:49 If you are getting an error please tell me what the error is so I can help you a little better.
And to anyone else, if you still get errors after following the above, reply with the problem, and please include the type of video card you have, as well as the distro (and version or release of the distro).

This is great! Worked like a charm. Thank you.
Steps 6 and 7 are no longer neccessary since the patch is now included in the repository. Step 2 can be done by executing, as root, `apt-get build-dep wine` on Debian, Ubuntu and other Debian-based distributions.

So you are saying that the NEW patch (the one that disables messing with lower memory, NOT the commit that had to be reversed) is now in TRUNK? If confirmed, I will remove the steps from the guide.

I'm on Fedora, and I didn't want to assume a distro so I simply guide them to the multi-distro guide on wine's site, but thanks for the tip :)

At least it says this:

Alexandre patched dlls/ntdll/virtual.c after the reports on Bugzilla:
http://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git/?a=commit;h=c10bdbefd69786846b035d1c38de3052bed67875
So, yes, I think it's safe to assume it's in the TRUNK now, and most likely in 1.1.27, when out. --- Kat :: Recruitment :: Hikage Corporation :: Veritas Immortalis |

The latest wine release, 1.1.27 should contain patches to prevent the freeing of memory which was killing Eve on Linux.
Per the bug link from the wine developers, the 64-bit Eve is loading the 32-bit Direct X libraries, possibly in a way that even Microsoft says not to do.
I can't test 1.1.27 due to lack of network access at home at the moment. I did use a patched git checkout successfully for the last week.
If the problem is persisting, please reopen the bug report with wine and ask the Eve dev team to look into if they are 'voiding their warranty' in how they use Direct X.
Some Tips:
- Re-cleaning the ~/.wine installation should not be a necessary piece of voodoo if you had running wine 1.1.24 or earlier. wine should update non-overridden libraries as needed. YMMV and I recommend backup of the ~/.wine directory in any change, update, downgrade or experiment.
- I keep the CCP folder elsewhere in my home (~/Documents/Eve/CCP) and link it back (ln -s ~/Documents/Eve/CCP ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/CCP) instead of completely reinstalling the several gigabytes of EVE each and every single time.
- EVE needs two 32-bit direct X libraries at this time, d3dx9_35.dll and d3dx9_36.dll. You can keep them in the CCP/EVE directory instead of in the %SYSTEMROOT%/system32 directory (usually ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32). Windows and wine loads libraries by looking at the application's directory first then the system32 directory. This tip works well with the previous tip.
- If you run wine from the command line a lot, setup a shell alias. For instance, for ksh you add to .kshrc the line
alias wine2 'wine --display :0.1 explorer /desktop=EVE2,800x600 C:\Program Files\CCP\EVE\eve.exe'
and open a new terminal window. Typing wine2 in the new window should start an in-a-desktop 800x600 Eve on monitor 2. When EVE finished loading, the window will naturally resize to whatever resolution you set in EVE.
You can create another alias, say wine1, without the --display option and with a different desktop level (say, EVE1) to quickly (re-)start wine on your first desktop if you have multiple monitors. You can use this to setup debugging wine runs by adding the wine +debug options.
- If you do re-install wine a lot just to play eve or other Direct X games, you can export the whole [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Direct3D\Wine\Direct3D] key. Say it is exported to a file called my_filename.reg . Import that each time you re-install by running 'wine regedit my_filename.reg'. Obviously keeping the file outside of ~/.wine is required to preserve it between wiping ~/.wine.
Quote: Once you have done all that, you should be able to run EVE with all of the settings maxed out (assuming you have a decent video card of course).
Can anybody confirm that wine still posses the high CPU while application is idle bug? I've got a multi-core CPU at home so it's not a show-stopper for me, but having EVE eat a whole CPU while sitting at the login window or character selection screen is silly. Also, it impacts the function of Eve Voice (causes drops, etc).

It's not linux-specific thingy. Due to lack of FPS cap eve consumes all available resources to render even login screen at highest possilbe fps, as far as i understand.
Also - both recently introduced crashes were fixed. 1.1.27 works flawlessly with the exception of crash on focus gain.

Yeah, it's not a bug at all. Eve is not idle at the login and it's most definitely not a Wine concern. The concern is purely more bull**** joke material that far too many people have fallen for.

directx installation failed with error '-9'. It is suggested that you restart your computer and then run DXsetup.exe located in bin\\directx in your eve folder.
this is the error i recieved and of course i attemped to run dxsetup, but immediately error's out, did i miss something??

nevermind, i figured it out, when i transfered the dx files, 35 and 36, and did so in terminal in su mode so restrictions were all messed up, after i fixed that, reinstalled and received error 1, so all i just ignored it and launched through manually eve.exe. now only if i could link the shortcut... but thanks! it work! great!

The splash screen is displayed, then it vanishes and nothing happens. This is pretty close to this Wine issue except none of the given tips solved the problem for me.
Note that the trial version of Crossover Games led to exactly the same issue.

this may sound stupid, but i've seen that and it was due to an incomplete shortcut. are you going in through /home/(user-name)/.wine/drive_c/progr......./eve/eve.exe??? and launching from there? if that works for you make a new shortcut using a this route ... /home/(user-name)/.wine/dosdevices/c:/Program Files/CCP/EVE/eve.exe"
complete command is wine "/home/mike/.wine/dosdevices/c:/Program Files/CCP/EVE/eve.exe"

Read other thread. Others here that have an ATI card may have a better idea of whether the 9800's are still supported enough to satisfy Eve or not.

You seem to be using an old R300 based Radeon (9500, 9700, 9800) with open source Radeon drivers. These drivers don't fully support GLSL and Opengl 2.0. You can try latest GIT from MESA (read a news about improved GLSL this week but don't know if this affect this card).
Your best option is to try the last usable FGLRX or simply switch to a better AGP card.

Edited by: Biakuzolm on 21/08/2009 22:47:47 I've tried it too with my other computer, which has an ATI HD4850 GPU with latest Catalyst drivers.
I was able to enter the game with the trial version of Crossover Games 7.2, but there were 3D issues (no models, black screen in station except GUI). Trying to compile an old Wine ATI patch did not solve the problem.
Tonight I saw the new release of Wine 1.1.28. Little hope. Extremely little though. I deleted all my Crossover Games and Wine installations. I followed again the tutorial from the original post. No error during all the process, sound test in Winecfg is OK. I also used Winetricks to get "Gecko" and "vcrun2005sp1" installed, just in case.
I used wine explorer /desktop=EVE1,1280x960 "J:\EVE Online\eve.exe" to run EVE ("J:\EVE Online\eve.exe" is my EVE installation on my real Windows XP drive, I kept a dual boot temporarily. Crossover Games gave the same result using either this XP installation or the .cxgames installation, so I decided to keep only this one).
The EULA is well displayed, I can login, I can reach character selection menu. But when trying to enter EVE world, the loading progress bar gets stuck on "Entering Station" state, and nothing happens. The errors are the following ones:

I really can't understand what to do now. I've probably tried every tip I found on the internet. It's a fresh Linux Mint 7 installation with clean and bleeding edge source for Wine, functionnal fglrx drivers, "Blackbuffer" in user.reg, desktop emulation set to on in Winecfg, and a recent ATI HD4850 GPU. So many people state that they can run EVE through Wine 1.1.27 (or former version) installed with .deb binaries and almost no custom settings with this hardware. Id did not work for me, either "out of the box" or with custom settings (supplemental dlls, modified user.reg, etc.). I did not find any ATI patch corresponding to my issue and for recent Wine versions on WineHQ.
I'm thinking about cutting my veins with my USB keyboard right now.

Edited by: Biakuzolm on 21/08/2009 23:13:48 Sorry for the flood. :/
Just note that disabling shades in main menu settings and setting all graphics to low do not return the same errors when trying to enter the world. Here are the errors I get : http://pastie.org/591083.
Tell me if I should post elsewhere to have help, I really don't want to pollute this stick thread, but it's written in the original post to report here if one has any problem running EVE with this tutorial.

You're my god. I'll give you everything you want, Dear Lord. You saved my life, now it is devoted to your will.
(In fact Linux Mint auto-installed fglrx drivers, I really thought those Catalyst were up to date. I tried to check it but I did not find where it was written in the Catalyst window. Here, I manually installed the Catalyst 9.8 version. It works like a charm. Marry me Xeiyu.)
