Linux - PTool under Wine, video tools, anything

    >Also, just to confirm for anyone running Linux/debian variants, PTool works nicely with Wine out of the box.

    I would have said so, too - until yesterday when I got the "Invalid floating point operation" exception trying to run PTool3_62d.
    (Fedora 15.x86_64, Wine 1.3.24)

  • @Roberto Haven't tried 3.62 on Debian yet! Looks a lot like the error we saw when 3.60 first came out, perhaps @Vitaliy_Kiselev can help debug this? What were you trying to do when the error was triggered?
  • @Ptchaw
    It happens as soon as I launch PTool/Wine. I somehow hope that it's a Wine problem which may be fixed with the next software update; or else a PTool incompatibility with this v3.62 - waiting on the next PTool version likewise. Until then I'm booting into Windows occasionally.

    I'll be upgrading and will post my impressions.
