Windows 2000 dll's on WINE were not compatible with 5.1i.  You can find the information on this in the "Configuring WINE for Xilinx" section of the 5.1i Release and Installation Guide.  Both your Red Hat and Wine versions are newer than those supported for the 5.1i release, but I have not heard of any major issues with them, so I doubt they are the problem.

I agree you are very close, and if needed, our support engineers will be able to help you sort out your dll issues.

I configured Wine to emulate win2k, and copied the Xilinx-supplied
DLLs from config/redist/w2k to a place where Wine could find them.
For MSVCRT.DLL, that also means overriding the Wine builtin dll.

I wonder if it is really the same file? By the way, you might mention where you got the Wine version being used. For what it is worth, I run ISE5.1sp3 on Redhat 7.3, with current CVS Wine. > I configured Wine to emulate win2k, and copied the Xilinx-supplied > DLLs from config/redist/w2k to a place where Wine could find them. > For MSVCRT.DLL, that also means overriding the Wine builtin dll. > I am a little puzzled by that. At least when installing ISE, it automatically installs the DLLs. I assume Webpack does the same. Where did "config/redist/w2k" come from? In any case, did you try the NT40 DLLs instead of the Win2K ones? If I were doing it, I would blow away all the native DLLs and the Webpack directory, reconfigure Wine for nt40 rather then win2k, and reinstall the Xilinx software. Xilinx seems to have fixed whatever used to cause the software to take an hour or so to install :-) Afterwards, maybe check to see that it installed a few native DLLs, including msvcrt. -- My real email is akamail.com@dclark (or something like that). ###### From: ldoolitt@recycle.lbl.gov (Larry Doolittle) Newsgroups: comp.arch.fpga Subject: Re: Xilinx WebPACK on WINE -- getting close Date: Sat, 15 Mar 2003 00:24:27 +0000 (UTC) Organization: LBNL News Server Lines: 25 Message-ID: References: <3E7262EA.EDEC661@xilinx.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: recycle.lbl.gov X-Trace: overload.lbl.gov 1047687867 10926 131.243.169.124 (15 Mar 2003 00:24:27 GMT) X-Complaints-To: "newsmaster@lbl.gov" NNTP-Posting-Date: Sat, 15 Mar 2003 00:24:27 +0000 (UTC) X-Newsreader: slrn (0.9.4.3 UNIX) Path: chonsp.franklin.ch!pfaff.ethz.ch!news-zh.switch.ch!news.mailgate.org!enews.sgi.com!sdd.hp.com!ihnp4.ucsd.edu!dog.ee.lbl.gov!news.lbl.gov!ldoolitt Xref: chonsp.franklin.ch comp.arch.fpga:26707 On Fri, 14 Mar 2003 16:16:58 -0700, Roy White wrote: > >Windows 2000 dll's on WINE were not compatible with 5.1i.

Assuming I use Windows NT configuration, how will I know when I find the right samlib.dll, netapi32.dll, and netrap.dll? Wine includes a builtin netapi32.dll, is that OK? Shall I try www.dll-files.com for the other two? Why didn't Xilinx include these files in the kit? Do the Xilinx-supplied w2k DLLs in config/redist/w2k work with Wine in NT emulation mode? >I agree you are very close, and if needed, our support engineers will be >able to help you sort out your dll issues. I hope so, just as soon as I am cleared to open a WebCase. - Larry
