Sentinel: I have the Uniden Sentinel software working with Linux Mint (LMDE 5)

[radiochuck]

Yes, just paste the code block into the terminal window and hit enter. I tried it several times on Linux Mint, and it just resulted in many, many errors (404 not found, failure to fetch, and quite a few others) and the process aborted with neither WINE nor Sentinel being installed.

The link in the code block for Sentinel is correct for the current version.

Let us know if it works for you.

I sure will. Thank you for the help.

Unfortunately no. The install seemed to go okay, with a few occasional hiccups that I thought it had worked through on its own. When all was finished, I connected the radio and set the drive config to Floppy Disk, but when I attempted to run Sentinel, it resulted in the following error log...

Unhandled exception: 0xe0434f4d in 32-bit code (0x7b010be6).

This is what I saw before I hit OK and saw the above error log (previous post).

Ok, thanks for the report. Mine didn't even get that far.

 

[belvdr]

Typically, when these errors occur, it's because you have a 64-bit wine prefix. Make sure to create a 32-bit prefix. Removing ~/.wine and running:

WINEARCH=win32 winecfg

will create it. Just exit winecfg when it starts. Beware, this will delete any wine programs you have installed in that wine prefix.

Sometimes, having the incorrect .NET framework will cause it too.

I wonder if there's any way to start over, then modify the install code to force the win32 version?? Linux is very new to me.

To start over with wine, just delete the wine prefix, typically ~/.wine. As your normal user, not sudo or root:

rm -fr ~/.wine

That removes all the programs and data in that wine prefix. You don't need to modify any install code.

Thank you. I'll give that a try. The install code did include the line "WINEARCH=win32 winecfg", so I'm not sure that's my issue, but I'll see what I can do with the info you gave.

Did you run that command first? After doing that, and unless you ran another WINEARCH, you should be fine to exclude it. It may be the wrong .NET framework too. I forget which one I installed, but thought it was 4.8 and I used winetricks after running the winecfg command you mentioned:

winetricks dotnet48

I may be in over my head on this one. All of the code is what's in the link that fxdscon posted above. You can see all of the commands and order by checking out that link. I'm sorry I'm not able to better tell you what I did. I'm not a Linux guy and I'm just a little disoriented. I appreciate all of the help. though.
