wine-compholio 1.7.8 problems - n8156 6205

[Neal]

I now have this same error code on two computers (i.e., error code n8156 6205), one on which Netflix (i.e., netflix-desktop) was installed for the first time last night and the other, on which netflix-desktop which was updated this morning. The earlier install (which was updated today) was on Ubuntu 12.04 and last night's install was on Ultimate Edition 3.5.2 (which is Ubuntu 12.04). As such, I trust that both computers are using the same version of netflix-desktop. The earlier install was on an I3 processor machine that had ordinary Intel graphics while the update, today, was on a I5 processor machine with a Nvidia GTX 550 ti and Nvidia driver 331.20, just installed yesterday. The earlier, I3 machine install worked perfectly until today. The OS for both machines is 64 bit.

(I note that I tried, on the I5 Nvidia machine, after the install last night led to the error message, to install the pipelight program and it had the very same error code).

I poked around a bit on the netflix website. I think that error code n8156 6205 appears to be a Silverlight issue.

Attached is a copy of my netflix-desktop.log file.

I screwed up with the build yesterday, I'm testing a new build now. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hi,

this problem is caused by a recent update of wine-compholio. We had some problems with build process and the version doesn't contain all necessary patches. We're currently preparing a fixed version which will be delivered soon.

In the meantime you can just download the previous wine-compholio version from:
https://launchpad.net/~ehoover/+archive/compholio/+files/wine-compholio_1.7.7~ubuntu12.04.1_i386.deb
(and manually install it with: sudo dpkg -i wine-compholio_1.7.7~ubuntu12.04.1_i386.deb )

We'll update this bug report as soon as the fixed version is ready.

Sebastian

Thank you all. Netflix-desktop now works on both of my computers.
