===== slow appliacatio nstartup ====

I have irfanview associated to graphic files.
With every click on graphic file, nothing happens. Disck IO activity goes to 100% level for few seconds, and then irfan view window appear.
Utility ''iotop'' shows disc usage by ''winemenubuilder.exe''. Tracing syscals with ''strace -f /usr/lib/wine/wine winemenubuilder.exe'' shows lots of operation on
fonts directory:

In winecfg: before running the installer, run winecfg. Go to the Libraries tab and type winemenubuilder.exe into the "New overrides" box (it is not in the dropdown list). Click add, then select it from the "Existing overrides" box. Click "Edit" and select "Disable" from the list, then click "OK".

Alternative: select builtin


===== version mismatch =====
<code>
wine client error:0: version mismatch 1/490.
Your wineserver binary was not upgraded correctly,
or you have an older one somewhere in your PATH.
Or maybe the wrong wineserver is still running?

<code bash>
pkill wine
pkill exe

===== Could not load wine-gecko. HTML rendering will be disabled =====

Download the current gecko, see here: [[http://wiki.winehq.org/Gecko]].
Then install it in your wineprefix:
<code bash>wine msiexec /i wine_gecko-2.40-x86.msi</code>
