I am using the version of wine that came with RedHat 7.2. I just noticed that Codeweavers has their own distribution of wine that includes what looks like a convenient setup configuration utility. What are the pros and cons of uninstalling what I got from RedHat and downloading and installing the rpm from Codeweavers? Thanks

I am trying to install the Codeweavers version of wine (pre-release 2) and I am having problems. When I try to install (using rpm), I get the message "installing package codeweavers-wine-20010112-1 needs 7Mb on the / filesystem". My / filesystem is not overly large, but I still have approx 60Mb available on /. Is the error sta...

Hi, Sorry to bug people with this what must be a very trivial question. I've got a Mandrake 8.0 installation and have been trying in vain to get CodeWeavers Wine (preview #3) installed. I've downloaded and installed the 'blessed' version of itcl from the CodeWeaver's website (itcl-8.3.2-7mdk.i586.rpm) and am still getting the itcl not found error when I try to run winesetup. Anyone else got this problem despite installing the correct v...

Well I must say. I certainly feel like a fool now. I have been contributing to Wine for about five months, and was shocked to see a blatant advertisement for CrossOver, who take the hard work of those who have contributed their intellect for free and sell it for profit, on your home page. I then discovered through your own FAQ that most Wine developers are employed by CrossOver. Is this legal?

Today October 28, they are giving their software for free. Yes. Interest is go great they had to take their main site offline! Downloads can be done from the subsitute web page. So ... is their's really better than Wine on Debian Sid or Experimental? I have no need for MS-office. OO is more than good enought. However ... the question remains :-) They also offer a games package.

is there a difference between versions on the winehq site and the codeweavers aside from codeweaver's easy installation code? ie. will one version tend to run more programs than the other? -- JT

I had a little trouble installing WINE and, becuase of that, tried several different versions. It turned out the sound trouble was not a WINE issue, but a devfs issue, so I deactivated devfs (devfs=nomount). I am using the latest RPM of Codeweaver's WINE with Mandrake 8.1. I've got Codeweaver's WINE up and running now. When I first tried this, I could type a win .exe file from
