Not sure if this the right place to post this, but I wanted to share something.
I am on openSUSE tumbleweed, and to keep it simple, this means I get ALLOT of updates.
One of those updates is wine.
Because of all the issues related to wine, I will tell what should happen, and how you should let wine do his thing.
I am pretty sure this is not opensuse specific but for all Linux distro.
The Fist time you start lmms, you see wine config running,
( or maybe the first time you use an vst)
Let wine do his thing. After this wine might come with a message, that wine mono is not installed.
Click accept so wine will install wine mono.
Then LMMS is ready to go,
Today after a wine update I loaded an LMMS project I am working on, and boom, wine config, and then wine telling me wine mono was not installed. So I let wine install it.
When the project loaded LMMS complained about not being able to load some vst.
I listened to the project and some vst were not working.
I then did not save the project and quitted lmms.
Then started the same project and all was fine.
Computer logic , don't ask me, I only work here.
The part were it does get confusing is that I am 100% sure, I already had wine mono installed.
I decided to not argue with wine though, and let it install wine mono.
What I suspect is that wine mono does not really get installed, but some links get fixed, at least in my specific case.
When I install wine on opensuse I always also install wine mono.
From my package manager:
Wine mono = A .NET replacement for use by Wine.
