i got this link from another list. does this affect applications running in wine? http://security.tombom.co.uk/shatter.html -- Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of DOS, and danced the skies on Linux silvered wings. http://pfrostie.freeservers.com/cad-tastrafy/ http://www.freelists.org/list/cad-linux

This message is for those who wants to help Wine project but do not know where to start. We need contributors of a wide range of skills. The minimal requirements are: access to a computer with Linux (or other Unix-like system) where you can use Wine. We have a lot of tasks which are relatively easy to do. The fact that these tasks are easy does not mean they are not important. Examples of the

I'm trying to run different win32 apps with different configs. i was looking thru the man page and found the WINEPREFIX. i added export WINEPREFIX=$HOME/.wine.icad to my script that i use to launch my application. It seems to find it, but now i'm getting: $ icad wineserver: mkdir /.wine.icad/wineserver-atlanta.ga : No such file or directory ok, i obviously did not understand something.

I'm trying to run OrCAD, an electronic CAD for windows without result. Here is the command line and the "answer": $ wine /mnt/win_c/Program\ Files/Orcad/Capture/capture.exe err:module:load_builtin_dll loaded .so for L"W32SYS.DLL" but got L"w32skrnl.dll" instead - probably 16-bit dll fixme:ole:CoRegisterMessageFilter stub wine: Unhandled exception (thread 0009),

i have heard some stories from some people who claim to have been able to set up a partition in linux and install win98 via wine and then having it fire up. i know wine isnt designed for this purpose but apparantly it has been done....who knows, maybe someone is pulling my leg. i'm just wondering if there is anyone out there who has pulled this off and if so how did they go about doing it. i

Hi everybody! I recently tried out Wine, and decided to write an article about it. Well, that means I need to get some interesting windows apps working, so far it's only Notepad and Solitaire (won't make anyone cheer). The problem is, when I try to start any installer.exe file, I get some rows of nonsense ("fixme pthread...blabla") and then it exits with the message that it

I've just recieved a demo/trial cd of some windows software i want to try using with Wine. when i try to mount the CD it mounts with no errors but when i change to the directory there is nothing there. i've pulled it up on my wifes win9x machie and the directories and files are there. no problems. is there some format or sting that i need to specify in my /etc/fstab other than

I'd like to have a couple of windows app working in linux without rebooting (visual basic and JMP). I downloaded codeweavers wine but I have a question about windows partition or no windows partition... My present system is not dual boot. So ideally I'd like to run wine without a "real" windows partition. However, I have heard that wine works better with a "real"

Anyone have a preference as to which Linux installation runs smoothest with WINE? Redhat? Mandrake? Also, are there any packages to avoid installing with WINE? Any that seem to really help?

> I have tried some CAD packages on wine. In fact, I am a student of > architecture who wants to get a working CAD app on his Linux Laptop. I can't help. But have you looked at qcad? It's a CAD app that runs on Linux. You can find it at www.qcad.org.

I've downloaded codeweavers-wine-20011108, and installed it on a Red Hat 6.1 linux box. It won't launch any programs, however, and returns an error message that says it needs a "true Windows partition mounted under Linux" or an "empty Windows directory". Does this mean I need to repartition the hard drive? Thanks, again, Roy

Hi, I am new to Wine. I really want to investigate into it. I also appreciate and want to say thankyou for all the work that wine developers done. I've got the following message from running Adobe Illustrator... does anyone know what is %WINEPREX% ? Couldn't find PPD file '%WINEPREFIX%/generic.ppd', expect a crash now! Thanks. David

...be able to run with 100% builtin dlls. i've run them in the past using some native. i'm hitting a snag on the need for mfc42.dll. does wine have a libmfc42.so? how do i work around this? -- Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of DOS, and danced the skies on Linux silvered wings. http://pfrostie.freeservers.com/cad-tastrafy/ http://www.freelists.org/list/cad-linux

my ten key pad no longer seems to work on wine apps. is there something that i need to add to my config. i've been doing a lot of tweaking lately and might have deleted it on accident. -- Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of DOS, and danced the skies on Linux silvered wings. http://pfrostie.freeservers.com/cad-tastrafy/ http://www.freelists.org/list/cad-linux

Hello All, could someone please tell me which Native DLL's I should use with Wine? should they be Windows 95,98,NT, or 2000? I think that part of my problem in the past has been that I have had a mixture and thus I think that this would cause a problem in some of my applications. I have been trying to get an SDL application to run but I have not had luck so far. Cheers, Lonnie

...e been any changes to the way this would be handled inwine? i'll keep working on backtracking to see if it could be something on my end, but, i'm not the only one reporting this behavior. -- Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of DOS, and danced the skies on Linux silvered wings. http://pfrostie.freeservers.com/cad-tastrafy/ http://www.freelists.org/list/cad-linux

...t think the problem was Wine itself, but one of the libs that it relied on. anyway i just wanted to let everyone that helped me know that it's once again working. thank you for all the help. -- Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of DOS, and danced the skies on Linux silvered wings. http://pfrostie.freeservers.com/cad-tastrafy/ http://www.freelists.org/list/cad-linux

I am an intermediate Linux user. I dual boot into Redhat 7.3 and Windows ME. It would be nice to be able to run the stuff in Windows from Linux (for 2 reasons: to avoid booting and rebooting, and trying to get away from Windows altogether someday), so I am now learning WINE. I see a bunch of postings on this list about compiling. Question: Would I expect to compile, as opposed to just running

...s to be a link back to wine. is this correct? did i screw something up again? there is a directory with an executable regedit.so and some other stuff but regedit seems to be linked back to wine. -- Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of DOS, and danced the skies on Linux silvered wings. http://pfrostie.freeservers.com/cad-tastrafy/ http://www.freelists.org/list/cad-linux
