are there any new improvements on this ? I’ve hit the same problem as mentioned above (using feisty final and wine 0.9.33. I’ve also tried it with cedega, but with no more luck. Perhaps crossover office ?
Until someone figures it out, I’m running renoise in vmware, which is slow as hell, but about usable
i’ve succeeded with renoise 1.8.0 and wine 0.9.44 under fedora core 7
it starts, plays songs and all, but i’ ve not tested it very much… i’m going to see sting in tour and i’m in a hurry !
tommorow i’ll post some news.
here it is how i’ve done:
install renoise, it should work fine
locate your home directory, and under .wine, locate the renoise install directory
my linux has italian locale, so it is under ~/.wine/drive_c/programmi/Renoise…
locate the Skin/Cursors
rename the Cursors subdir to something else… i renamed it to _Cursors
It does work. Somewhat.
Ubuntu 7.10, latest wine in repositories.
-Had to uncheck all graphics options in winecfg, else none of the dialogs responded.
-To slow and quirky to be useable on my laptop - 1.59 GHz, 896 RAM.
-Also, to use some shortcuts I had to release buttons between actions to make it work. For example, changing instruments with alt+arrows sometimes changed position in disk browser instead.
I’ll wait for the official port, and hope that initiative doesn’t die.
hello,
I only want to say that I have installed 1.8 on ubuntu too (under wine of course )… I’m trying it… sound quality is ok! I’m experiencing a little latency ( for example when I press a QWERTY key the sound starts a little bit later), and I have some problem with shortcut keys too.
The “preferences” doesn’t works good. (but seems to be only a “graphical problem”… the keys do what they have to do, but they are not displayed correctly, and the application doesn’t crash). “Render to disk” has the same problems.
btw: in winecfg I checked the “emulate a virtual desktop option” and it helped…
Anyway… Linux porting is a GOOD idea!! Wait for it!
cheers
I didn’t tried 1.9 but I think it’ll be the same as 1.8…
I was curious about “renoise-on-wine” so I tried it , but to be sincere I must say that it is not a good solution in the sense that is is not as reliable and stable as on windows…
Santa’s on the dev team now? He should get a forum account also. I know some people who should get nothing but coal in their stockings, and would like to make sure the fat man knows about it.
