Tencent QQ

QQ は Tencent が開発したインスタントメッセージングソフトウェアで、ICQ の模倣品であり、中国で人気のある IM ソフトウェアです。このページでは、Arch Linux で QQ を使用するためのさまざまなソリューションを紹介しています。

公式バージョン

公式バージョンは既に利用可能です。公式バージョンを使用するには、linuxqq^AUR をインストールしてください。

ノート: 公式バージョンでは通常の QQ を提供していますが、TIM には公式バージョンがありません。TIM を使用したい場合は、Wine ソリューションを利用してください。

仮想マシン

完全な Windows システムを仮想マシン上で実行し、その中で QQ を動作させることができます。この方法は、他の方法と比べてエラーの発生確率が最も低いです。デメリットは、より多くのリソースを消費することです。

ヒント:

ライセンス条項によると、各仮想デバイスで Windows を実行するには個別のライセンスが必要です。ただし、Microsoft が提供する仮想マシン専用システム^{[リンク切れ 2024-01-13]}（無料で使用可能）を選択することができます。
VirtualBox を使用する場合は、シームレスモード を有効にすることをお勧めします。この機能により、ホストデスクトップ上で仮想マシンのウィンドウをシームレスに操作できます。

Wine

この記事またはセクションは情報が古くなっています。

理由: The wine-based QQ upstream has not been updated for a long time since the official linux version has been released. Basically it is not working due to the old QQ version. (Discuss)

Wine is a "compatibility layer" that runs Microsoft Windows programs under UNIX-like systems, and it can be used to simulate QQ environment to run QQ/TIM.

警告: The style of Wine QQ/TIM under the tiled window manager may be out of control on a large scale and additional configuration is required.

Deepin QQ/TIM

Deepin QQ/TIM is a relatively mature solution in wine. Almost out of the box, with fewer bugs.

You can install the normal QQ: deepin-wine-qq^AUR or TIM: com.qq.office.deepin^AUR (or com.qq.tim.spark^AUR from Spark Store), also from Arch Linux CN source install the normal QQ: deepin.com.qq.im or TIM: deepin.com.qq.office。

Or you can install the Light version: deepin.com.qq.im.light^AUR。

For the KDE/Plasma desktop, see Deepin-wine#Deepin-wine applications fails to start.

Crossover

You can use CrossOver to run QQ, TM2013 and TIM. For more details, please refer to CrossOver's compatibility list.

AppImage

AppImage is a format for packaging applications into a single file. You can download the packaged Wine QQ/TIM in [1].Only need to give executable permissions to use. Since the AppImage format comes with the dependencies required by the program, this method is least affected by the versions of other components in the system.

ノート: Since AppImage does not use the system's Wine, adjustments to Wine may be invalid, such as #HiDPI support.

Teacher Qingfeng's Wine QQ program

You can also use the Wine QQ program provided by Teacher Qingfeng.

ノート: After the installation is successful, you need to uncheck the automatic update of QQ to avoid unavailability of automatic update.

Manual Wine scheme

QQ light chat version

ノート: This program uses QQ Light Chat version 6.7, and later versions require additional adjustments in the current wine version to install.

Install winetricks and wine. Created qqlight.verb as follows:

w_metadata qqlight apps \
 title="QQ Light" \
 publisher="Tencent" \
 year="2015" \
 media="download" \
 file1="QQ6.7Light.exe" \
 installed_exe1="$W_PROGRAMS_X86_WIN/Tencent/QQ/Bin/QQ.exe" \
 homepage="https://www.qq.com" \
 unattended="no"

load_qqlight()
{
    w_download https://dldir1.qq.com/qqfile/qq/QQ6.7Light/13466/QQ6.7Light.exe e1e1ff2bf6461c08047d0a01927a43c5a0746bdf

    fi

    if w_workaround_wine_bug 34566 "Installing native ctf to work around crash"
    then
        w_call msctf

    w_declare_exe "$W_PROGRAMS_X86_WIN\\Tencent\\QQ\\Bin" QQ.exe
}

Run winetricks to install:

$ winetricks qqlight.verb

After installation, start it through wineconsole:

$ wineconsole .wine/drive_c/run-qqlight.bat

TIM

Install wine, wine-gecko and wine-mono.

Execute winetricks riched20, or use winecfg to set function library substitution.

You may need to configure Chinese font display, see #Font configuration.

Install TIM.

Generate icon

The installed TIM may not have generated an icon in the program list. To add icons by yourself, create a new tim.desktop file and write the following:

tim.desktop

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Version=1
Name=TIM
Comment=Tencent TIM
Exec=wine '~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Tencent/TIM/Bin/TIM.exe'
Icon=~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Tencent/TIM/TIMUninst.ico
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Categories=Network;

Move tim.desktop to ~/.local/share/applications or /usr/share/applications.

Tips and tricks

HiDPI support

On the HiDPI display, the QQ/TIM interface may be too small. Support for HiDPI has been added to the newer version of QQ/TIM. Just manually adjust Wine's DPI.

Execute winecfg, switch to the display tab in the opened window and adjust the DPI.

ノート: If you are not using the default wine container (for example, use deepin QQ/TIM) you need to specify the WINEPREFIX variable when you execute winecfg. For example, env WINEPREFIX=$HOME/.deepinwine/Deepin-QQ deepin-wine winecfg or env WINEPREFIX=$HOME/.deepinwine/Deepin-TIM deepin-wine winecfg.

Configuration under the tiled window manager

Awesome

Wine QQ/TM may be out of control under the tiled window manager, and some configuration is required.

The following configuration has these effects:

Set all TM windows to float.

Clear unnecessary window borders to prevent the focus from moving to the menu when the menu pops up.

When using tabbed conversation window, increased use of digital switches Alt+Number shortcut key, need to install xdotool.

Automatically close the pop-up news window.

Add the following to the Awesome configuration:

function myfocus_filter(c)
  if awful.client.focus.filter(c) then
    -- This works with tooltips and some popup-menus
    if c.class == 'Wine' and c.above == true then
      return nil
    elseif c.class == 'Wine'
      and c.type == 'dialog'
      and c.skip_taskbar == true
      and c.size_hints.max_width and c.size_hints.max_width < 160
      then
      -- for popup item menus of Photoshop CS5
      return nil
    else
      return c
    end
  end
end

awful.rules.rules = {
  -- All clients will match this rule.
  {
    rule = { },
    properties = {
      -- we use our own function
      focus = myfocus_filter,
      -- The following is the default part
      border_width = beautiful.border_width,
      border_color = beautiful.border_normal,
      keys = clientkeys,
      buttons = clientbuttons,
    }
  }, {
    rule_any = { 
      instance = {'TM.exe', 'QQ.exe'},
    },
    properties = {
      -- This, together with myfocus_filter, make the popup menus flicker taskbars less
      -- Non-focusable menus may cause TM2013preview1 to not highlight menu
      -- items on hover and crash.
      focusable = true,
      floating = true,
      -- remove the border
      border_width = 0,
    }
  }, {
    -- Other rules
  }
}

alt_switch_keys = awful.util.table.join(
    -- it's easier for a vimer to manage this than figuring out a nice way to loop and concat
    awful.key({'Mod1'}, 1, function(c) awful.util.spawn('xdotool key --window ' .. c.window .. ' ctrl+1') end),
    awful.key({'Mod1'}, 2, function(c) awful.util.spawn('xdotool key --window ' .. c.window .. ' ctrl+2') end),
    awful.key({'Mod1'}, 3, function(c) awful.util.spawn('xdotool key --window ' .. c.window .. ' ctrl+3') end),
    awful.key({'Mod1'}, 4, function(c) awful.util.spawn('xdotool key --window ' .. c.window .. ' ctrl+4') end),
    awful.key({'Mod1'}, 5, function(c) awful.util.spawn('xdotool key --window ' .. c.window .. ' ctrl+5') end),
    awful.key({'Mod1'}, 6, function(c) awful.util.spawn('xdotool key --window ' .. c.window .. ' ctrl+6') end),
    awful.key({'Mod1'}, 7, function(c) awful.util.spawn('xdotool key --window ' .. c.window .. ' ctrl+7') end),
    awful.key({'Mod1'}, 8, function(c) awful.util.spawn('xdotool key --window ' .. c.window .. ' ctrl+8') end),
    awful.key({'Mod1'}, 9, function(c) awful.util.spawn('xdotool key --window ' .. c.window .. ' ctrl+9') end)
)
function bind_alt_switch_tab_keys(client)
    client:keys(awful.util.table.join(client:keys(), alt_switch_keys))
end -- }}}

client.connect_signal("manage", function (c, startup)
  -- other configuration

  if c.instance == 'TM.exe' then
    -- add Alt+n support
    bind_alt_switch_tab_keys(c)
    -- close all kinds of news notification small windows
    if c.name and c.name:match('^腾讯') and c.above then
      c:kill()
    end
  end

  -- other configuration
end)

You can also look at the complete Awesome configuration.

i3

In the native configuration, when qq2012 is started, it will be maximized automatically, and the border is not beautiful. The following two rules can be set in the i3 config setting to improve:

for_window [instance="QQ.exe"] floating enable
for_window [instance="QQ.exe"] border none

Troubleshooting

Font configuration

If you have problems displaying Chinese, you can try to execute winetricks fakechinese first.

File is occupied

Just kill the process of QQ or TIM. After exiting QQ/TIM, some related processes are still running in the background. You can also use the following script to start QQ/TIM, it will first find the existing process, kill the process and start a new QQ/TIM.

start-tim.sh

#!/bin/sh
# script to start TIM
# kill TIM before start TIM
for pid in `pgrep TIM.exe`; do
	if [ -n ${pid} ]; then
		kill ${pid}
	fi
done
# start TIM
wine '~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Tencent/TIM/Bin/TIM.exe'

The above example is applicable to TIM, and can be applied to QQ after a little modification.

Unable to input emoticons under xfce4 (xfwm4)

Open the Settings Manager-Window manager tuning-focus, uncheck the ICCCM focus prompt to activate focus anti-theft and follow the standard.

The reason is that incompatibility occurs when the emoji window gains focus.

Cannot enter Chinese under non-Chinese locale

Modify the Exec of the .desktop file, which is usually located in /usr/share/applications/, but must be copied to ~/.local/share/applications/ in order to not get overwritten.

Add env LC_ALL=zh_CN.UTF-8 to the Exec line. For example, the original Exec was:

Exec=".wine/drive_c/Program Files/QQ/Bin/QQ.exe"

Should be changed to:

Exec=env LC_ALL=zh_CN.UTF-8 wine ".wine/drive_c/Program Files/QQ/Bin/QQ.exe"
