When trying to run wine on stock Raspbian, you get a message like this:
Warning: Memory above 0x80000000 doesn't seem to be accessible.
Wine requires a 3G/1G user/kernel memory split to work properly.
This is supposedly a kernel setting, which can be configured during compile time. But why does wine need this setting?
And how do other operating systems aside from Linux handle this? E.g. there is wine for OS X. Does it work the same way there?
It would be better if you explain in your question that you are trying to run wine on exagear. Exagear is shipped with a special build of wine that supports 2g/2g memory split. You should use only this build of wine, not the one from apt-get. – Andrey Rogov – 2016-02-26T01:22:44.583
No, I actually tried running wine from apt-get. Never tried exagear. In the end I managed to run wine, after building my own 3G/1G kernel. But it was really horribly slow, so I stopped that experiment. But if was fun! – Arne – 2016-02-26T21:38:07.253
