Vestige under Linux Fedora (Linux expert needed)

Hello together,
I'm using LMMS under Fedora 23 (x64) and wanted to load other VST Plugins via Vestige. Vestige is there, I drag it to the Beat/Bassline Editor go to the Folder and try to open an VST Plugin, Vestige says "Please wait while loading VST-Plugin" then LMMS hangs. I have tried it with the Synth1 VST tested here
https://lmms.io/wiki/index.php?title=Te ... ynthesizer but the same result. I waited for about 15 Minutes, nothing happend, the system load from LMMS is 25% (I run a dual core processor with hyperthreading) so one core is blocked all the time. Has anyone ideas, why this fails? Or has anyone the same issue? Thanks for all your help.
Sven

Welcome to the forum S.Baus! First, For you, all important links:
http://lmms.io/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=4740
And a few rules for posting and using the right sub-forum :)
Your problem with Vestige & linux are propl related to wine ao the distro you have
KXstudio's distro is the one that most has full success with:
KXStudio "lmms-vst-full - Linux Multimedia Studio - full VST support Using Wine"
I
think is the one .. but, im a windows person :p
--------------------edit
I have changed your tittle a tad, and hope someone with Fedora insight can chime in -i cant help :/

Thanks for your answer. I use Fedora for other reasons, so changing the distribution is not an option. Maybe it is a problem of Wine and Fedora, but I thought asking here, because I assumed that here are people using LMMS on Fedora so I wanted to know if there is a problem known. I would really want to use LMMS on Fedora, so is there anybody who can help me?
Thanks in advance.

hi
I am using lmms on openSUSE
The simplest thing you can try is use a different wine version ( newer or older)
Another thing you can try
Start lmms from the command line and look for hints what goes wrong.
On the bright side, if it works on suse it should work on fedora too.

Thanks for the advice via console. The output is the following:
Code: Select all
[sven@localhost ~]$ lmms
Notice: could not set realtime priority.
VST_PATH not set, defaulting to /home/sven/vst:/usr/local/lib/vst:/usr/lib/vst
lmms(5413) KMimeTypePrivate::ensureXmlDataLoaded: Missing <comment> field in "application/x-msdownload.xml"
fixme:winediag:start_process Wine Staging 1.9.9 is a testing version containing experimental patches.
fixme:winediag:start_process Please mention your exact version when filing bug reports on winehq.org.
What wine version are you using? How long does it take you to load simple VST like Synth1? Thanks for your help.

Hmm.
When I look what I get when I start LMMS:
Code: Select all
guus@linux-0pkp:~> lmms
Notice: could not set realtime priority.
VST sync support disabled in your configuration
I know we can ignore the line about real-time priority.
But yours looks different. And it says something about wine.

I have an idea now. Seems to be a problem of wine and wine-gecko because if i delete the folder /home/sven/.wine and try to load an VST wine says it needs wine-gecko and asks me to download the package. But after the download nothing happens. Maybe its a bug of wine on fedora.

Does this help ?
https://wiki.winehq.org/Gecko
They say we can download it ourselves, but I would first ask for help on a Fedora forum. I remember while reading this that on opensuse wine also downloaded some stuff.

Thank you for your help. I opened a thread on fedoraforum
https://fedoraforum.de/viewtopic.php?f= ... 39#p136739 hoping that someone has this problem or can help me. The advice given on
https://wiki.winehq.org/Gecko I already checked. Since Fedora seems to use test versions of wine, I assume a problem with the wine version (currently 1.9.10) and the gecko version (wine downloaded wine_gecko-2.47-beta1, but the package of fedora mingw32-wine-gecko is 2.44.1 and there is no newer version). I hope to find the problem.

I hope they come up with a solution soon. One thing to try if that package is available through the Fedora repositories, an older wine version.
