I know the Wine-staging, I like to use the official Wine only. Fedora itself is enough beta for me.
P.S. You can use the pulldown menus through clicking on the menu, moving the pointer towards your item and releasing onto it. I use it like this in Windows, I didn't even notice this in Linux/KDE at first.Last edited by .kypa; 09-16-2015, 02:23 PM.

About "failed to retrieve processor..." - resolving is done through just update to 1.7.51, nothing else?
Proof from elitetrader forum - that's the best guide I found, I only added gdiplus to it. All that I know gdiplus does is splash screen and some fonts/sizes looking better, should work just fine without it as well.

What version of Mono is in Wine-staging 1.7.50 and 1.7.51?
Have you installed 32-bit libxslt and isdn4k-utils before installing Ninja in plain Wine?

You most surely use them actually - without those packages Ninja should not be able to connect almost anywhere, let alone receive live feeds. Wine-staging should have them installed for you as dependencies. I know for these packages from Crossover - it asks to install them, other Wine derivatives probably do as well.
I couldn't find Mono versions on the Wine-staging site, however I have Wine 1.7.51 today and it's the same 4.5.6 Mono included.

Also...I have to ask...why haven't you tried Wine-Staging? That is the foundation of how I have gotten NT7 to work with linux as well as work with stability.Last edited by davidbrooke; 09-21-2015, 05:16 PM.

Ninja doesn't need the 32 bit libxslt and isdn4k-utils in latest Wine version indeed.
Last time I tried Wine versions were 1.7.38~40 - it couldn't work with the 64-bit then. I tried also 32-bit Linux back then - it worked fine, same as 64-bit Linux with added 32-bit libxslt and isdn4k-utils (Kinetick end-of-day and demo Continuum only, FXCM no).
You haven't mentioned plain Wine version you tried in the Gentoo thread - that's why I asked. Crossover is based on 10-20 versions behind latest Wine, in March it was on 1.7.25 or so. I got same results as yours then - Ninja crashed when I tried to connect somewhere, even newsfeed. In Crossover it didn't work at all. Crossover asked for those 32-bit packages when I tried the ready-made settings from Codeweavers' site I think, not on a manual setup. As far as I remember I tried both ways, including starting the exe downloader and straight to the msi installer - it didn't work either. However right after that (with the 32-bit packages) I installed Wine and it was able to connect to Kinetick at first try.
If you got same results in plain Wine as in Crossover it probably has been a Wine version around 1.7.40 - and Ninja can't connect in those versions without the 32-bit packages.
As of 1.7.49 and current 1.7.51 this is all fixed - FXCM, Continuum, Kinetick end-of-day - all connect just fine, no 32-bit libraries needed. I don't have paid licence or real account though, all I can check are demos.
In Wine 1.7.51 even the bugfix for "Failed to retrieve processor information.." is implemented. As of today there is no practical reason to use Wine-staging over plain Wine. It is true this issue would not be fixed today if you haven't used Wine-staging and filed that bug though.
Mono is the free open-source net framework - that is what belongs to Linux, not the Microsoft packages, even though some of their code is open-sourced now. And that is the reason I want it.
