Is avaible any FRED for GNU/Linux?

[castor]

Nope, but (AFAIK) it works with WINE.

I'e tried to run it with wine, but when I'm cliking it nowhting happens.

You have to run it with the full Windows path, it won't work with a Linux path (which is the default).  Normally run it from the terminal (for debugging purposes) with "wine `winepath -w fred2_open_d.exe`".  I keep working builds in ~/tmp/freespace2 though, so I can also run it from an icon with "wine j:\\tmp\\freespace2\\fred2_open_d.exe -fredhtl" as the command.  It doesn't work perfectly due to some Wine bugs, but those bugs are known and will get fixed at some point.

Oh, and be sure to install OpenAL in Wine as well, so FRED2 can actually start up.

Okay... I've installed OpenAL for Windows thrugh the WINE. I've launched terminal. I've entered my FS2 directory and wrote:

Code: [Select]

wine fred2_open_3_6_9.exe -fredhtl
But I'm getting this error:

Code: [Select]

fixme:midi:OSS_MidiInit Synthesizer supports MIDI in. Not yet supported.What should I do?

You have to run it with a full path like I mentioned earlier.  So do this instead:

Code: [Select]

wine `winepath -w fred2_open_3_6_9.exe` -fredhtl

But I'm getting this error:

Code: [Select]

fixme:midi:OSS_MidiInit Synthesizer supports MIDI in. Not yet supported.What should I do?

It's not an error, just ignore it.  There will likely be quite a few other such things too, just ignore those as well.

Thanks! Now I can run a FRED, but I'm getting this when I'm moving objects (FRED Retail runs properly):

It does that. There's not much that can be done about it. Simply let go of it, and it should be fine.

Isn't it rendered in D3D? Maybe switching to OGL could help? But how?

FRED only uses OGL, so that's not an issue.

The problem is something I seen before, but only recently.  I get something a little bit different though.  What version of Wine do you have?  I only noticed it around 0.9.29+, but I'm not sure if it was actually Wine's fault, or some change in the FSO code that attributed to the problem.  I'm pretty sure that it's not an issue under native Windows, so I'm leaning towards Wine.  I know basically what code changes I made around that same time, so I might try and test some things just to make sure it wasn't something that I b0rked up.

[shiv]

I'm using the newest version of wine.

How to fix this bug?

It's not completely unknown on windows to be honest. Just try moving around, say, the Object editor.
