wbaduk on wine redux

Post by cdybeijing »

I know this has been discussed before, but not recently.

The java client does not work well enough for me to play on consistently in my Ubuntu 12.04 install.

My best wbaduk experience was on my 10.04 machine running through wine; it was a little buggy, but the client hardly froze and I could always play my games without difficultly.

For a brief while earlier this year I was running Kubuntu 11.10. A wine install of wbaduk on that system was god-awful; starting a game would always crash the client, and I couldn't even watch or review games of others.

Has anyone had a successful wine install on 12.04? If so, could you specify which version of wine and which version of wbaduk?

I did not get it working on 12.04. If I try to play or watch a game I get bundle of OLE handle errors and defunct client. I can watch "privately" a game but thats all.

I tried installing flash on wine and disabling flash from setting to no effect

You could try qgo2 which was able to log on to wbaduk before. I haven't tried it in a while.

On my old Debian Squeeze installation, wbaduk with wine seems to run without major problems (The only issue: When I'm in a context menu of a player name and just at that time get a game request, I can not answer it; the programm freezes until the game request is gone...).

When I start wbaduk under Windows 7 as non-admin user, I immediately get an error box saying

"Access violation at address 0065AF54 in module 'Oro20.exe'. Read of address 000002EC".

This box comes with a warning sound, then another error box appears etc. (about one error box per second). In no time, the error messages clutter all over the screen and the only way to get rid of them is to kill the ORO*.exe process in the task manager. When starting wbaduk as administrator, it works longer, but eventually the error boxes also appear (e. g. when watching another game after the game has been finished by counting). In summary wbaduk is not usable under Windows 7 for me.

I guess that newer versions of wine tend to be more compatible with Windows 7, while the old version of Debian Squeeze is more like Windows XP. How does wbaduk run on Windows XP - any experience?

Yesterday, I logged into wbaduk from my Debian machine and was one of two German players amongst >2000 mostly Korean players in the playlist. I think the buggy client is the main cause preventing more players from Europe to test Wbaduk.

My current statistics there is 3 wins vs. 12 losses as 10kyu (my initial guess was 9kyu...), but in this case I need to debug my brain instead of the client... :mrgreen:

Thx, this works. Just have know that wbaduk is oro in the list.

And it is this specific version one has to use. There seems to be 3 qgo's around and one from Ubuntu repo's will not work.

This is better than the real one. No avatars and no annoying animations!!

Yeah, this is qgo2 where qgo original was just igs. Unfortunately the repo and executable never changed names.

Guys - I am feeling left out. I really want to install this qgo2 but I have never used qmake before and it's not working well for me. I've followed all the instructions in the readme and install files (after downloading the zip) but I can't get past the make command without getting an error 127.

What else does it print along with the error code? A quick google suggests this (mostly?) comes up if it can't find the uic binary, does it say something like 'uic not found'?

Hmm...a few ideas that may shed light:

- What distro are you using?
- Do you have qt4 installed?
- What qmake command did you use? qmake, or is it something like qmake-qt4?
- Does 'uic-qt4' exist on your system? If you have locate installed with an up to date database (sudo updatedb), you can just do 'locate uic-qt4'.

Edit: I guess based on http://www.qtforum.org/article/859/afte ... r-127.html you either don't have uic installed (and maybe other components) or it isn't in your $PATH

This is awesome, live support!

Ubuntu 12.04
Yes, installed qt4 specifically for this
I used the command qmake, not qmake qt4
I'm not sure if I have locate installed - I ran the locate uic-qt4 command and didn't get any feedback.

According to http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?searc ... l&arch=any , you need the package libqt4-dev-bin , which might conceivably not be part of the standard qt4 installation. If you don't have it already, try installing it and see if the compilation still fails.

Edit: Sorry, that's for 12.10, for 12.04 you want libqt4-dev

I got it to work but few issues so far:
Annoying "lets have fantastic game" gizmo was in anointing place and hard to move as it has no title bar. I modified it place and size in source and now it better

Second was that in two games stone was not placed on board. I t could be that this could be connetionissue i.e qgo sends message to server and places stone on board only after receiving ack from server. One of these days I will check.

Gee at least at around my strength these people play differently. Making four point extension will induce a invasion regardless of the wall supporting it :) Well that’s the reason to play there. learning how to handle hazard moves, to a degree at least.
