Wine and networking

Thu Feb 25, 2021 3:03 pm
Hi,

I'm afraid that the i386 compatible wine layer doesn't seem to work so well out of the box on neon. I could not get any x386 applications to install, but I did find this:
viewtopic.php?t=154066

Which was helpful. I got wine to install this way, but there is a problem. Networking does not work. None of my applications appear to be able to hit the network. When I use the cmd application in wine, the strange thing is that it resolves the IP address of a DNS name. But, pings are always dropped. I found the setcap solution on the wine page, but it does not fix the problem.

Code: Select all
setcap cap_net_raw+epi "$(readlink -f "/opt/wine-stable/bin/wine-preloader")"
or
Code: Select all
setcap cap_net_raw+epi /opt/wine-stable/bin/wine-preloader


There are no complaints on the part of my system when applying those, but they don't seem to do anything. The networking is still not working in my wine environment. I cannot seem to find anyone else with this issue... though I've "googled" the heck out of it. The above seems to fix the problem for most people.

Any ideas on how to get wine working properly? What am I missing here?

Thanks.
