This is where PlayonLinux aids you with boats script but yeah, when you try to do it with wine itself there was some good suggestion a few pages ago

Once you have Wine installed, you first run WINEARCH=win32 winecfg to create the 32-bit prefix (you can close the Wine Configuration window once it appears). Then from there, you run the winetricks dotnet20 command. If it completes without error, you've successfully created a 32-bit prefix If it mentions it can't install on a 64-bit OS, that means the prefix isn't 32-bit.

Edit : regarding my personal problem .. the solution was disturbingly easy ...


Why not using proprietary drivers provided by Ubuntu?
I decided to uninstall fglrx manually and choose fglrx-updates here, restarted Ubuntu to be sure and voila, osu!'s finally running (a bit slow due to StrictDrawordering I guess, but still)

I managed to get osu! running on Arch, but if I run it this happens:

Sound is not working (guess I didn't make wine use alsa, I'm not sure about it yet)
Default skin is using the old skin, no idea why
Any beatmap can not be loaded
No beatmap backgrounds at all

Framerate is fine though, it's really smooth EDIT: just need to install some libraries, resolved everything but this

Sliders look terribly ugly
Fonts look terrible (maybe I should change the font rendering in wineprefix, but I'm kinda sleepy so doing that later when I wake up)

Commands I did

$ su -c "pacman -S wine winetricks lib32-alsa-lib lib32-mpg123 lib32-giflib lib32-libjpeg lib32-libpng"
$ rm -rf ~/.wine
$ WINEARCH=win32 winecfg
$ winetricks dotnet20
$ cd /mnt/sda2/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)/osu\! (Basically my osu! folder, obviously)
$ wine osu!.exe

Using Wine 1.7.5, kernel version is 3.11.6-1 and it's Arch's stock kernel.

Extra stuff, just in case.

It also said something about my OS being a 64 bit OS and the program being 32 bit when installing the dot net 20 thing or whatever...

I don't like Linux. I only use it because it's much faster than my old Windows Vista. Please help - I have no idea what I'm doing.

Go to your home folder, press CTRL + H to unhide all files/folders, and delete the .wine folder (as long as you don't have anything in it you want to keep); then do WINEARCH=win32 winecfg to make the 32-bit prefix. Then try the guide again, or try PlayOnLinux if you want.

Hmm, hasn't crossed my mind to try that lol, but great that it works Last time I tried that though, it ended up breaking Unity strangely...

Tried forcing slider rendering, doesn't work. Gdiplus helps with my fonts though.

Another interesting thing I find, the window moves by itself when on Taiko mode.



I'm not sure if it's due to my window manager (dwm), but I made an openbox session (just a tiny edit on ~/.xinitrc), and it works...

Yeah, that happens on xmonad as well. If I sink the window and force it to tile it stops moving. I think the window border is messing it up.

Hmm from winecfg, try toggling the settings that reference to controlling Windows and Borders.

Both the "Allow the window manager to decorate the windows" and "Allow the window manager to control the windows" work when unchecked, but they cause ugly and out-of-place Windows-style titlebars to be drawn on top of the window and cause the osu! cursor to be offset from the actual mouse position. Emulating a virtual desktop and running osu! in fulscreen also works, but then I can't see the window title. Sinking the window is, IMO, the least bad option.

m42a wrote:

What does sinking a window mean? I know it's a term used in xmonad, but I'm not sure how do they call it in DWM.
Maybe I'll try get osu! running on qemu, but I don't really want to install things I don't use often lol. Maybe I should just load an openbox session instead of DWM in ~/.xinitrc, but it's really a pain editing every time I want to play osu! (btw other games I tried that run on wine works fine)

I'm not sure how much this applies to dwm, but in xmonad, there are 2 types of windows: floating windows, and sunk windows. Floating windows can be moved around and resized using the mouse. Sunk windows are arranged by the window manager rather than the user. So if you sink osu!, when it tries to move the window manager says "No, you go over there" and the window stays in the same spot.

And when I say "virtual desktop" I don't mean something like qemu or virtualbox. In winecfg, there's an option under the Graphics tab to create a windows desktop to run the wine program on rather than letting it use your Linux desktop. This desktop acts like a window in your Linux desktop with Windows windows inside it. If you run osu! in fullscreen there's only 1 window, so it looks normal.

If doing it manually seems too complicated (even though it really isn't), install playonlinux http://www.playonlinux.com/en/download.html and use this script to install osu! http://www.playonlinux.com/en/app-1856-osu.html

It's pretty much literally the same procedure, just that the script does it for you.

Can you get the screenshot or quote of the exact problem?

Hmm, I'm unsure about how to troubleshoot POL issues, but last time I checked, I believe the process was pretty smooth. Only thing I could suggest is to maybe start over from the beginning and remove the old osu! install.

Okay, here are my general points of advice for running osu! in Arch Linux (I recently bought a new hard drive and had to do it all again)
1. Create a NEW, FRESH 32-bit wineprefix. ($ WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX='~/.wine'; rm -rf ~/.wine; wine 'wineboot') or so
2. Install .NET 2.0 ($ winetricks dotnet20)
3. Install image libraries. (# pacman -S lib32-libpng lib32-giflib lib32-libjpeg-turbo)
4. Install graphics libraries. (# pacman -S lib32-mesa) but choose your graphics card of course ($ lspci | grep VGA)
4. Set proper audio output in Wine. ($ winecfg)

DO NOT run osu! with Mono though that seems counter-intuitive; it will immediately throw an InvalidProgram exception.
If you get pink sliders and backgrounds do not load, etc, you need the 32-bit image libraries mentioned above.
If you aren't using open-source driver for your graphics card, you probably should be, but it's your system so you know best.

These steps work for me. It is very finicky but once you get it, it should run absolutely fine. Good luck

Maybe, if you don't understand what I said or don't want to research the stuff, Linux isn't really for you.
I would do a video tutorial but I think my explanation is good enough... I am getting a new laptop soon and I will try and install osu! on there, too. I will make note of everything I do from a fresh Arch install.

The 5 stuff in my post I wrote in brackets, you must type them in a terminal, but please research all the commands I posted so you don't do anything silly - in particular, 'rm -rf ~/.wine' will remove your entire Wine prefix.

For those Arch users, I realised there is an "osu!" package on the AUR (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/osu/). I haven't tried it, yet.

bahamete wrote:

judging at the pkgbuild it should be pretty much the same anyway. Also for convenience I just write a bash script that launches the game and dumped it into /usr/bin so that I can run it with dmenu

Decided to give myself a try on Xubuntu 12.04. Would have used Arch but due to its bleeding-edge nature it tend to give me packages which were not "just works" and actually made me go nuts. Also pacman managed to screw up my system half a year ago too.

Loads up fine although it takes a while. Framerate can never get past 60fps no matter what I do (245fps max on Win7 though) and I get both input and audio delay which are really noticeable in standard mode but it's rather less noticeable in osu!mania. Framerate would drop down to <35fps in some cases especially on beatmap select. The only biggest problem in here is that the slider shows up pitch black (and virtually invisible with 100% background dim).

I don't got linux available as of now so I can't really test things out but I've posted on the POL forums for some help, I'll get back to you once I've gotten a reply.

In the meantime you could try launching it through the terminal using LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8 wine osu.exe

From what I've gathered though I can not promise anything, at least not through POL alone as it can't set the LANG variable on it's own.

Please Video!!!! tutorial please

Apparently it can set the LANG variable, so if anybody wants to test this out, I would highly appreciate it.
Save this http://www.boaty.org/POL/osu%21installer and run it through "Tools > Run a local script"
Here's a map with Japanese characters to test it out with https://osu.ppy.sh/s/106
edit: tested it myself and the Japanese didn't work, unfortunately.

ukeluppi wrote:

You're using osu!install.exe. Either you altered my script, you're using a different one or you're trying to install it without one at all, which doesn't work and generates this error message.

If you can't install it manually you can find my script here here, in the link above (osu!installer) or through the POL client.

Got this. It works fine few weeks ago though (I'm guessing it's because of updates, since arch)
EDIT: Reconfigured wine again and worked again. Huh.

boat wrote:

Didn't work for me either, installed takao/tahoma just in case and still didn't work.

I imagine for it to work you first have to install and configure a Japanese locale, which will take some time for me to sort out a script for, if that would even be possible to do through POL.

I'll look into it but I don't have much time to spare so don't expect it any time soon, not from me at least.

ukeluppi wrote:

?

If you can't get a visual installer from the official POL script repository to work then perhaps you should reconsider your choice of OS.

There is nothing wrong with the script itself, all you have to do is run it, not the osu!installer.exe.


jeez

I actually found the solution. What I did was copy all my fonts from Windows into ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/Fonts (I think just copying msgothic.ttf msmincho.ttf is enough, my entire font folder in Windows is almost 1GB ._.) and Japanese fonts finally works

so what do you want to do for yout POL script is probably wget these fonts into the font folder in wine

I uploaded them, for those who need it,
http://nadeko.tsundere.my/dump/msgothic.ttc
http://nadeko.tsundere.my/dump/msmincho.ttc

Those who got the same issue, just copy the two fonts into ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/Fonts, you don't need to $ export LANG="ja_JP.UTF-8" I think.

Hi.

Too lazy to read the entire thread, so i'll just ask here.
I'm planning on using ArchLinux as my main OS at the desktop PC. And the only thing i'm aware of is osu! performance under wine.
Can someone report their pc configuration and fps you got under linux? Also, if you can, tell me the fps you got on the same machine under windows.

~120fps with a laptop with Core i7-3517U @ 3GHz, 1GB AMD Radeon 7570M, 8GB RAM and the game at 800*600 resolution.
~400fps on Windows on 1366*668 resolution, 800*600 is around ~800-1000fps

I do not understand, my English is bad, playonlinux not found There is an easier method

I have 60-80 fps in linux
and 1500-3000 fps in windows ^^'

I found instructions on how to improve fps in wine, but it involves recompiling the kernel. Seems very risky as I haven't ever done that before. :p

Updated installer with the fonts. Korean requires the title to be romanized and Chinese should work as well.

http://www.boaty.org/POL/osu%21installer
http://www.boaty.org/POL/osu%21installer.tar.gz
these are invalid, I'll edit this when I've fixed them, in the meantime use the script from the pol repository

Or just download the fonts yourself and as mekadon already pointed out put them into the /windows/fonts/ folder.
http://www.boaty.org/POL/msgothic.ttc

I'm running Arch Linux with a Radeon HD 7770, and I have quite a few issues running Osu. After the first couple of songs (it varies) the game will start consistently crashing before any song can be played, and on some startups the sound just doesn't work at all. I've tried both with boat's POL installer and with the AUR installer. There are several places it likes to crash:

1. Exiting the options screen
2. Entering the song list screen
3. Picking a song (but not yet picking the difficulty), after a couple of seconds
4. Picking the difficulty, before the song loads -- by far the most common and so far I haven't managed to get past this after my first couple of times

Nothing is printed in the terminal around the time of the crash. Is there anything I can use to debug this, or has someone solved a similar problem?

I got osu! to run on Linux Mint, however I have a problem with text strings in the game, which seem to get cut off near the end of the text. Also, when I make a link for the osu!.exe and run it, osu just crashes on startup. What can I do to fix these issues?

(I followed this to set it up)

Thank you kindly.

Hi, I have a quick question regarding importing beatmaps. I went through the tutorial at the beginning of the thread and everything works like a charm, except directly loading beatmaps via the "open with osu!" option in the browser download window doesn't work – that's not a big issue in itself, but I didn't notice that until I had tried importing several beatmaps that way. Now I just copy/paste them into the "Songs" folder, but those few beatmaps I tried importing directly are now "permanently" broken for my installation, even if I delete and re-download them. That's why I'd like to know if there's any way of clearing the "Failed Imports" cache of the program without reinstalling it (I'm kinda afraid of re-installing since this is the first time I got osu! to run this smoothly under Linux and I don't want to risk breaking my install).

Thanks in advance for your answers!

What makes you think reinstalling will break anything though?

Espionage724's guide on first post still working for 'buntu 13.10 i386.
Thank you so much, I wa unable to make osu! work in debian, even in sid. virtualbox+ubuntu working fine !

If you only seem to get 60fps, use

vblank_mode=0 wine osu\!.exe

(Or however you normally invoke osu!), It makes your graphics card ignore your monitor's refresh rate (which is probably 60fps).
However, why people want to play with over 60fps is beyond me. It causes tearing and unnecessarily wastes battery life.

Wow, the snow update somehow broke my osu! installation on Ubuntu 12.10. and now I can't start up the program at all, not even if I try re-installing it.
For some VERY strange reason this update also seems to have had some weird effect on my wine installation, as I keep getting the "winemenubuilder.exe has encountered a serious error" problem , no matter what I try to start with wine.

Also, @boat: Something always breaks when I try to tinker around with it under Linux. No exceptions. This time, even pressing the "update" button was enough. :/

edit: Suddenly started getting a more precise error message from osu!.exe: "Application has generated an exception that could not be handled. Process ID=0x24 (36), Thread ID=0x25 (37)."

I'm getting the exact same error - winemenubuilder.exe breaks as of the 15th's snow update.
If you want to set WINEDEBUG=warn+all you'll be able to see all sorts of ridiculous messages you probably don't care about - https://gist.github.com/plausibility/7982450 has a wine debug stack trace and all that jazz.

Peppy, what have you done to us poor Linux users?

I can also confirm this problem.

Sort of a fix in the mean time - I pulled an older version of osu (from a few days ago) from my laptop and dropped that into my wine folder and ran that directly.
You can get it here if you want to try yourself: http://gibsonsec.org/~zed/files/osu!.exe (md5sum: d47ef68157ed98a4973a7b0d53eddc78)
Hopefully peppy won't mind me distributing this as a fix in the mean time.

Thanks a lot, sir! This version works flawlessly. Now to remember not to update it until the end of winter!

I've just been keeping a copy of the functional version handy, then when it eventually updates itself into a not working state, I just copy the old version over the new version and start it.
That seems to trick it into thinking it's up to date(-ish) for one or two starts.

Same error.
will be because of the snow at the start? i hate the xmas(?) #OkNo

EDIT: instaling xna31 with winetricks, works. Thx Itachi

hello guys i have solution for this problem i made a video tutorial http://youtu.be/SPWR8PDrytQ
i hope it will be helpful
tested on linux mint 16

If anybody wants to take over maintaining the POL osu! installer, PM me. I don't got the time or interest to keep at it myself.

You don't need to do anything special with this issue nor download older version of osu!. Open up terminal and enter:
winetricks dotnet35
if it fails don't care about that and install also
winetricks xna31
It should start now!
On my second computer dotnet35 fails so I installed xna31 and then again dotnet35 but it fails again. But who cares? It works.

Damn, you're not kidding. Installing xna31 and dotnet35 via winetricks also worked for me (even though like you said the dotnet30sp2 installer failed which looks like because of a parsing error in the winetricks script, so only dotnet30sp1 is the highest version actually installed).

The winemenubuilder.exe crash still happens when launching anything from that wineprefix, however. You can safely disable "winemenubuilder.exe" via winecfg though. This obviously stops it from crashing, and is perfectly fine since all it does is change filetype associations, add menu items, or create desktop links, according to winehq.

Dunno what that last update did, but I can't even get 20fps now. We really need that Mono build if things are gonna break left and right like they do now.

Did you try run osu! with vblank_mode=0?

vblank_mode=0 wine osu\!.exe

as bahamete wrote?

Are you using open source drivers for your graphic card or proprietary drivers? Didn't you accidently uninstall some 32-bit libs?
I did it when I was removing wine and trying patched version and after that both versions were broken. When I ran some game, I was getting really low fps. When I started osu! I got a black screen. Then I opened Steam for Linux and he ask me to install some 32-bit libraries and then both versions of wine started working properly. So try to run Steam for Linux if he ask, let him install it.

PS: Without this repo https://launchpad.net/~oibaf/+archive/graphics-drivers/ opensource drivers for graphic cards are worse. So if you add it you can get better performance.

PS2: If you are using the opensource drivers you can't get higher than 60 fps without vblank_mode=0.

I'm using NVidia's proprietary drivers, and Steam still works. And vblank has nothing to do with it, since I was running it earlier at around 180 fps

On my second computer dotnet35 fails so I installed xna31 and then again dotnet35 but it fails again. But who cares? It works.

I haven't tried osu! yet recently (just got done installing some Xubuntu though), but last I checked, only dotnet20 was still required.

"If" I understand right, dotnet35 installed dotnet20 as well as 3, leading to more bulk that you don't necessarily need, along with increasing the risk of conflict if you use the same wineprefix for other stuff.

But in any case, both of those statements are just what I assume; haven't really tried it myself for a while, but I'll be sure to soon.

hello guys i have solution for this problem i made a video tutorial http://youtu.be/SPWR8PDrytQ
i hope it will be helpful

Thanks, it worked fine in Ubuntu 12.04.

I have been unsuccessful in using osu! on Fedora 20, with wine 1.7.5. My current problem is that while the game opens and music plays, the display remains black - I can't see any visual elements at all.

I had to install both dotnet20 and xna31 to get this far. I'm currently using nvidia proprietary graphics though I might also try with nouveau as this smells like a driver related problem. My nvidia driver version is 331.20.

EDIT: I'm stupid. Forgot to install 32 bit nvidia libs (xorg-x11-drv-nvidia.i686). Had them with nouveau. I'm surprised it got as far as it did without complaining.

Yeah you are right. That's why I have separate prefix only for osu!. On my computer I had only dotnet20 and started at wine version 1.5.25 and without any error continuosly updating to the newer version of the wine. Now I have this patched version of wine -> https://launchpad.net/~foresto/+archive/winepatched/. Only one time it crash! and I have to ran osume.exe. No more issue I spotted. And I have nvdia proprietary drivers 313 updates installed through jockey-kde. Before few days osu! wont started. So I tried installed dotnet35 and xna31.(peppy wrote this in the linux installation manual, but also only dotnet20). So after that it starts working.(but the installation goes to the dotnet30)That's what goes for my computer. On my notebook I have updated and optimized open graphics drivers. -> https://launchpad.net/~oibaf/+archive/graphics-drivers/ I have osu! in separated prefix with dotnet35 and xna40(installed today, trying something). + strictdrawordering=enabled(I have amd graphic card, without that the scroreboard and other text are broken) The only issue is that not every update completed successefully. So when it crash I run osume! and everything is working fine from the may's wine version 1.5.31 to the actual 1.7.8. Playing solo, multiplayer, Tag coop, creating beatmaps. Max fps 60. Running nicely. running osu! with vblank_mode=0 gave you higher fps, but I don't using it, because on 60 fps its fine.

I have also another prefix with dotnet20 only for osu! and that prefix is working on my notebook. But on my computer it wont start until updated dotnet. Strange

Sort of a fix in the mean time - I pulled an older version of osu (from a few days ago) from my laptop and dropped that into my wine folder and ran that directly.
You can get it here if you want to try yourself: http://gibsonsec.org/~zed/files/osu!.exe (md5sum: d47ef68157ed98a4973a7b0d53eddc78)
Hopefully peppy won't mind me distributing this as a fix in the mean time.

Great! This launcher fixes this problem in my box! My wine version is 1.6 stable, with winetricks and dotnet35. Thank you very much!

Hi. I'm not used to linux ( ubuntu 13.04 ) and i'd like to play osu!. I installed it 3 month ago. It worked well but one day suddently i had an error message. So i tried to install it with ur guide but i have some problems.

". Create a osu! folder in the Program Files folder in your Wine prefix, move osume.exe to it, and start osume.exe"
I don't find the Progam files folder :/ i searched everywhere but i don't know where it is.
So i tried to open osume.exe without moving it and i have this

as you're new to linux i have to ask you, did you know hidden folders (and files) starts with a "." ?
if i were you i'd look for a .wine folder or something like that to find the Program files but i don't have wine installed, and don't know it well, so it's only a guess.

---

You can try to install xna 3.1, it worked for me. However it can cause problems if you use more applications with wine. If it's your case, you should imo create another wineprefix for osu. Sorry for my English.
Terminal> winetricks xna31

-----
Personally I'm using Debian Testing (Jessie) x86_64, Wine 1.7.9 32bit custom build inside i386 chroot (i use schroot), after installing dotnet20 and xna31 osu! is sometimes a bit laggy but quite playable on my Intel GMA 4500 MHD and Core 2 Duo (GM 45 chipset)

Updated my guide a bit and clarified a few things: p/2577747

It would seem xna31 is necessary now also. If you only installed dotnet20 and osu! crashes on startup, try also installing xna31.

@Kiciuk
enable Strict Draw Ordering in winetricks for fix this problem this should work

Hmm, so, it would appear xna31 isn't actually needed. Installing xna31 installs dotnet20sp2, which is what is needed.

I was able to get osu! running by just installing dotnet20sp2.

Edit: Even dotnet20sp1 works with osu!. Just plain dotnet20 doesn't though.

I'm working on a slight different installation guide that would involve putting osu! in it's own prefix and disabling winemenubuilder (to get rid of the annoying error about it since dotnet20sp1/2), along with a proper desktop shortcut and icon. So far, the only downside is that you have to manually transfer .osz files to the Songs folder...

I'm playing osu! on playonlinux but the sound is playing with a robotic static like effect, it didnt do this until i played for a while. osu! is using dmusic to run the sound.

Sounds like it could be related to either ALSA or PulseAudio (although I think PoL defaults to ALSA). I might suggest trying the other out (would have to edit the registry I think or use winetricks).

Thank you

If using fglrx, it would appear that you may be required to use a CSMT-patched version of Wine for osu! to work properly at all. Without a CSMT-patched Wine, osu! would randomly lock-up during things like song select, skin selection, etc. (tested on openSUSE 13.1 and Ubuntu 13.10 with a Radeon HD 7850, both with 13.12 and 13.11 V9.95 BETA).

Currently, I'm using a patched Wine from foresto's PPA.

I also noticed I had to have compositing enabled on Xfce (4.12 on Xubuntu 13.10) in order for osu! to fullscreen properly with fglrx.

I finally got osu! running by installing dotnet20sp2 (after suffering from a bad case of ignorance), however, whenever I move the window, the following error occurs:

Attempted to install xna31, to no help.

Also, seeing that this thread has now become 42 pages long (and seeing as there are just a few other threads about it), why don't we create an article for all of the useful information at https://osu.ppy.sh/wiki/Linux? There's already an install guide at https://osu.ppy.sh/wiki/Installation but it lacks a lot of specific information and troubleshooting, not to mention the fact that it still states dotnet20 as a dependency, which should now be dotnet20sp2. I might jump on it in an hour or two if nobody else does, but I'd like to get some practice in now that I have it working again.

Hmm, I may do it at some point (or check/edit it later if someone else gets to it). I recently updated the notes over on the Wine AppDB page though.

(idk if anyone here did it, but merging the Test notes over to Public and then changing Test to Beta was not the best idea imo... doesn't really make any sense. I got some cleaning up to do now)

As a minimum, you could get away with even dotnet20sp1. Not really sure if osu! runs any differently between dotnet20sp1 and dotnet20sp2 though, but from what I've seen, dotnet20sp1 is fine.

Winetricks does a 2-step process (I think it goes dotnet20 then dotnet20sp2), but PlayOnLinux makes it a 3-step process (dotnet20, dotnet20sp1, then dotnet20sp2) which seemed rather... excessive.

So basically, for a more minimalist install, dotnet20sp1 works, but I guess if you want to be up-to-date, dotnet20sp2 works also.

My osu works perfectly on Arch (using the AUR package), except for one thing.. Input lag is ridiculous, something like 300ms, the game is unplayable Anyone know of a fix?

Is the input delay present with both keyboard and mouse/tablet/pointing device?

Not really sure what you could try. Maybe toggle Vsync (either in-game or with GPU-specific settings). What's your hardware and kernel?

If you are using fglrx this late in the game with AMD graphics cards then you have missed the train. Fglrx is practically deprecated by the Linux community in favour of the faster, smoother, and glitch-free open source drivers. I've been using my Radeon HD 7950 with open source drivers for three months now and even games like TF2 and L4D2 are input-lag free and smooth while on Catalyst they are not. If your Mesa is compiled with LLVM 3.5 you even get full OpenGL 3.3 support -- OpenGL 3.1 support otherwise.

Add vblank_mode=0 to /etc/environment if you are using open source drivers.

It's been about a week since I tried the open-source driver, but fglrx on both my 7850 desktop and 7660G + 7670M laptop had a higher overall framerate. radeon wasn't too far behind at all, but generally speaking, I had no real problem with fglrx with the games I played.

My main problem with fglrx was with my laptop. If I kept the boot splash screen active, sometimes it would lock-up (both on Ubuntu and openSUSE). Removing "quiet splash" from grub's cfg fixed it seemingly though.

radeon on the other hand had some annoying color banding issue for me mostly noticeable on the desktop and certain windows and programs (especially Steam; Big Picture looked terrible).

Catalyst 14.1 Beta was just released a little while ago also: http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-article ... river.aspx

The bold parts are your problem. It is highly recommended, especially if you have a RadeonSI graphics card, to upgrade to Ubuntu 13.10 and use Oibaf's PPA for the latest open source drivers.

Another thing that can contribute to massive input and game lag: using pulseaudio or dmix.

Use "$ pacmd suspend true" and "$pacmd suspend false" to flip pulseaudio on or off, and make sure that you have your audio device selected in winecfg.

Hello !

I'm looking for a solution to run Osu! on linux without admin rights. Wine isn't installed yet. I'm looking for a portable version of wine, but i didn't found anything.

Any potential solution is welcome. but i didn't found any of it. Here is my uname : Linux **hostname** 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.51-1 x86_64 GNU/Linux. If you want addition information about my system, i can give you all you want !

Any potential solution is welcome. but i didn't found any of it. Here is my uname : Linux **hostname** 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.51-1 x86_64 GNU/Linux. If you want addition information about my system, i can give you all you want !

Thanks for eventual help.

only portable app's for linux that I know of are http://portablelinuxapps.org/ and wine is not among them.

I'm not sure why you need to be able to use it as a non sudo user and that would most probably be your biggest issue even if there was a portable wine as there is a lot of other stuff you need installed not just wine.

I spent ages getting osu! working on my ubuntu box and then it only sorta worked, as in everything was "strange" when I actually went to play. The mouse would move slower and slower the closer you got to notes some background stuff was glitched, basically it was impossible to play anything above Easy difficulty's. Osu!mainea would not display properly and I did not check any of the other modes. If you really want osu! to be playable on Linux peppy needs to code it for Linux.

To do this, you'll need to compile wine from source.

1. Download the wine source from http://mirrors.ibiblio.org/wine/source/ ... 12.tar.bz2
2. Extract the source into a folder.
3. Open a terminal in that folder and run the following commands
   

   ./configure --prefix=$HOME/wine
   make
   make install

4. Edit the file "$HOME/.bashrc" and add the following line to the end:
   

   export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/wine/bin

It runs for me but runs at like 10 fps

probably because I have a shitty laptop

You might want to make sure that you have proper video drivers, and make sure you've got the 32bit ones as well if you're running 64 bit.
If you need or would like any more help, please provide your distribution and specs + GPU brand. :3

Kyon. If you have Ubuntu 13.10 and you are using open source drives, then try to add this repo:https://launchpad.net/~oibaf/+archive/graphics-drivers/ and update the system.

im running a 64-bit version of ubuntu 13.10 and when i try too install .net framework 2.0 it says that it isnt supported on a 64-bit, any ideas on how to get around this?

You'll need to create a 32 bit wine prefix.
Open a terminal and run the following, then continue on.

$ export WINEARCH=win32
$ export WINEPREFIX=~/.wine32

ok so i managed to install -framework 2.0 but still cant run osu!, i run the .exe with wine and it starts to load (loading wheel appears instead of cursor) and the nothing.

Run "winetricks dotnet20sp2" if you haven't already, then you need to put osume.exe in a folder and run it.

$ mkdir osu
$ cd osu
$ wget "http://osu.ppy.sh/release/osume.exe"
$ WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.wine32 wine osume.exe
