Of course I bug reported this.. hoping to get some help from anyone who might have overcome this problem already.

Basically, I've installed EVE Installer using this gentoo ebuild in my PORTSDIR_OVERLAY. The ebuild works fine, it installed the "installer", which runs fine. I ran the installer, it detected the .dat & .dat.md5 file and everything was installed without warning or error!

Now, when I go to configure EVE, the configuration tool seems to work okay, the only things that don't work is the Copy Protection (Not sure if this is a problem) and OSS (I use ALSA, and that's what is configured) but when I actually run eve, I do not get so far as a splash screen!

(I also installed dbus-python which is not mentioned in that ebuild, but I figured maybe that was the issue - it was not).

There is a post in the original linux beta testing thread by someone who had (or has) the same problem as I do, but noone replied to him and I cannot get in touch with him.

Anyone have any ideas?

(here's some more data below)

Just out of curiosity, I tried to use wine to start the eve.exe executable that this whole mess installed, and I did get a splash screen (which stalled soon after).. that's further than this cedega stuff got me. Laughing

Try to set
audio=0
in prefs.ini

and see if that helps.

I get a black window if I have audio enabled (doesn't matter if I select ALSA or OSS).
With audio=0 it works.

Work like a charme with liitest git wine version (wine-9999)

The only thing I have to do to get it working was coping arial.ttf on "windows/fonts" folder. After than, no crash! Also no problem with my dual core, font, text, keyboard, multi-client and sound...

122 FPS in station
55 FPS in warp tunel
30-40 FPS in Space

So the best idea is to repack EVE with WINE for redistribution Twisted Evil!

I think it was me who you refer in your post. I haven't tried using the .ebuild but using the .tar.gz I still get the same error.

I filed a bug report the first time (during the "closed" beta testing) but CCP closed the report as "fixed in 2.3.0".

It isn't. But I suppose they don't mind too much as we're using unsupported distros.

Using wine 0.9.39 I at least see the splash screen. Then it crashes because it can't find some Visual C DLL. (And that's running EVE from the windows' NTFS partition without even installing it with wine).

I'm sure it is an easy bug to solve, but it requires some Transgaming attention.

I get the same thing on gentoo with this error.I haven't been able to find the source of the error, however it's not as though I've tried very hard at this point. Last time I tried a regular wine build, even cvs, there were some nasty memory leakage issues.

By any chance, do you folks run multiple displays?

I have just one display.

I am using only one display. I will try to get this working some more. *sigh*

EVE on Gentoo with multiple clients, no thanks to useless TransGaming. (Audio works too)

Here's how I launch EVE now, from inside a screen terminal:

Quote:
cd ~/eve && ./eve.sh launch acct1


How I set it up:

Originally by: root shell
echo '=app-emulation/wine-9999 **' > /etc/portage/package.keywords
emerge =app-emulation/wine-9999


Originally by: user shell
mkdir ~/eve && cd ~/eve
cp -vR /mnt/winxp orig_install
./eve.sh install acct1
./eve.sh install acct2
./eve.sh install acct3


Originally by: ~/eve/eve.sh
#!/bin/bash

if [ "$2" = "" ]; then
echo "Usage: eve-setup.sh [run|install] installname"
exit 1;
fi

INSTALL_NAME="$2"
ORIG_INSTALL="${HOME}/eve/orig_install"
INSTALL_PATH="${HOME}/eve/${INSTALL_NAME}"

if [ "$1" = "install" ]; then
if [ ! -d "${ORIG_INSTALL}" ]; then
echo "Original install does not exist.\nORIG_INSTALL=${ORIG_INSTALL}"
exit 1;
fi

mkdir -p "${INSTALL_PATH}"
if [ ! -d "${INSTALL_PATH}" ]; then
echo "Unable to create install path.\nINSTALL_PATH=${INSTALL_PATH}"
exit 1;
fi

cd "${INSTALL_PATH}"
for i in "${ORIG_INSTALL}"/{*.*,script,res,lib,bin}; do
ln -vs "$i"
done
elif [ "$1" = "launch" ]; then
if [ ! -d "${INSTALL_PATH}" ]; then
echo "Install path does not exist.\nINSTALL_PATH=${INSTALL_PATH}"
exit 1
fi
cd "${INSTALL_PATH}"
screen -t "${INSTALL_NAME}" wine explorer /desktop=${INSTALL_NAME},1024x768 eve.exe /end /LUA:OFF
fi

Just installed eve-online on my gentoo and i got the same errors on launch:

err:client:receive_fd FD went missing; attempting recovery
wine client perror:0: write/writev: Bad file descriptor

Tried even with ebuild and official eve-000062.tgz

did someone found a way to fix this ?

People experiencing this issue are probably missing dbus-python. Do an emerge dbus-python to fix it.
If you use the nvidia-drivers and have setup your xorg.conf with the nvidia xorg configuration utility you might also need to uncomment Option "hw_cursor" and comment out or delete Option "sw_cursor" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf becuase I experienced a flickering mouse cursor with sw_cursor enabled on my nvidia card.

Same error/s

Managed to get past the:
err:client:receive_fd FD went missing; attempting recovery
wine client perror:0: write/writev: Bad file descriptor

by adding a cedega group and putting my user account into it. (check with "groups" command)

It was that and/or starting dbus with /etc/init.d/dbus start - either way, error gone.

Running eve from commandline now hangs on:

CPU pegged at 99%, ctrl-c'd it eventually.

Running plain /home/markd/.cedega/.ui/runGUI does however yield the cedega "launch" interface but clicking play just yields more CPU pegging with no action. (I did issue a export CEDEGA_PATH="/home/markd/.cedega" sometime which might have helped)

I suspect Ive screwed around so much its OS reinstall time (that or the last emerge world did more damage than I have) Confused

Good luck to those who have more patience than me.. I'll plod along in crossover till Im feeling up to pulling my teeth out again.

I'll post here but I have my own thread as well. I had the same error, with an additional error regarding 3d acceleration. After emerging the emul-linux-x86-sdl package, It worked. However, unmerging it afterwords to make sure I found the culprit also worked ugh the only other 2 packages were -medialibs and -compat which both were also unmerged as well, and it still worked.

I don't know how this may help or not, esp. since the thread starter is running 32bit.

Success!

TYVM OSFgentoo, solutions were to install emul-linux-x86-sdl (and its deps), actually start up dbus, export CEDEGA_PATH and other fixes listed in a thread about "EVE Crashes when i undock"

FPS up to 20 in space.. double what I get in crossover.

The pain.. she is less now Very Happy

How do you solve this problem ?
