Tonight I'm pairing a gamay noir with my evening snickers ice cream bar
It's Mr. Brightside Gamay Noir, from California. Nice and soft for a red with some earthy tones that works well with chocolate and peanuts.
Wine is awesome!

I had finally found a workaround to get Star Wars: Rebellion working perfectly. And not even a day later Alistair Leslie-Hughes had posted some patches to fix the bug correctly.
So don't despair about your decades old bugs. With the right conditions it can and will be fixed.

I'm trying to run a program in wine and getting the error 0024:err:module:import_dll Loading library jmptojava.dll (which is needed by L"C:\\Program Files\\SAS\\JMP\\10\\jmp.exe") failed (error c000007b)
The missing jmptojava.dll file is in the same directory as the executable. Do I need to set a Windows environment variable or something so that it can find it? Any other thoughts?
environmental variable question
I've been searching for three days and can't find any details to what this environmental variable does. Their have been issues for some people with Battle Net and I've seen people say to add WINE_SIMULATE_WRITECOPY. What does this variable do?
Flash Player gives a black screen.
With the .wine prefix I use currently, anytime I try to load Flash Player, it only gives a black screen, the unctions work but nothing displays, relevant for Flashpoint.
This is the error I get "00ac:err:winediag:WSASocketW Failed to create a socket of type SOCK_RAW, this requires special permissions."
This does NOT happen if I make a new wine prefix, but I have no idea what could have broken it before, especially since it didn't always do that, searches didn't lead me anywhere so I'm not sure if there's something that needs fixing short of "nuke the prefix and start over"
Current version is Wine staging 8.12
Issues with QuarkXPress 2017
So I tried installing and running the trial version of QuarkXPress 2017 in EndeavourOS using the latest version of Wine, as well as a lot of dependencies I installed with Winetricks (atmlib gdiplus msxml3 msxml6 vcrun2010 ie6 fontsmooth-rgb gecko), but I run into this error. Is there another dependency I can install to fix this or is it just a straight up bug?
Wine in 2023 still unable to properly run software from 1999.
Here is what I don't get about Wine. Even in 2023 it seems to fail to handle basic Windows software written in 1996-1995 like the classic convert.exe (https://joshmadison.com/convert-for-windows/). This program and others run flawless in ReactOS for instance, why not under Wine?
Another things I don't get include:
- Why is Wine is still stuck on that Windows 98 style GUI instead of a more modern thing;
- Flickering;
- How can ReactOS, that shares code with Wine, run everything way more smoothly?
For reference I'm using Debian 12, Wine 8.0. Also tried with Soda 7.0, same results.
