Hi, How can I use wineprefix option?

hi there. I hope this is the right place for asking this. After reading through the information about WINEPREFIX in the FAQ and the User Manual, I've still got some questions left: I (hypotetically) want to create a new clean wine-environment, install the winetricks d3dx9 package into it, and then run three applications in it. Would the following commands be the right way to do it? Code: WINEPREFIX=$HO...

Hello, I am looking for a way to create an individual wine rpm of the actual src.rpm. My goal is a new winepfrefix, that is created when a user is logging in, that contains additional win-programs. But I did not find the path in the wine...tar.gz file, where the wineprefix is located. can someone help me? Is this even possible? Because that would be an easy way to supply a programm for all users individually.

Hi, I'm still a bit new to Linux and Wine, so please bear with me if this is a stupid question. I've been putting all my windows applications in their own wineprefixes, and now I thought I'd put some of them in my data partition, because there's always lots of free space there and many of my games take a lot of space. But when I try to create a new wineprefix on my data partition, Wine suddenly doesn't like it. It gives me the following error messa...

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. how do i get wine to l...

Hi all I installed office2007 and I read here http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=12813 that I need to use native riched20.dll. My problem is that the comment says to do not set the override globally. How can I do that ? In winecfg when I add a dll I can chose : Integrated ("int?gr?e (Wine)") Native ("native (windows") first Integrated then

I am attempting to create a folder for my wineprefixes on my external hard disk. The plan is to symlink to that location from inside my user folder (ie. ~/.wine/PREFIXES -> $iomega/.wineprefixes) For reference: $iomega=/media/Iomega_HDD This is a 400GB external drive with a single NTFS partition. The plan is to create folders for all my WINEPREFI...

I have a couple of versions of wine installed, and most of the time I'm pretty good at remember which WINEPREFIX I used with which version of wine, but sometimes I get forgetful, and I end up screwing up a WINEPREFIX by accidentally running a higher version of wine in it, and it auto-updates and I have to recreate it. Is there some command or file I can use to determine the version of wine that a particular...

How do I run games with WINEPREFIX? I've looked up the site and done the whole WINEPREFIX=~/.wine-game and installed it but after that how do I run the game? when I run it it says wine cannot find the file.

I would like to point Wine at my Linux temp directory instead of /home/username/.wine/drive_c/users/username/Temp. Is there a way to have the Wine environment variable specify a different location?

Hi list, I intend to package a few games of mine using Debian packages for easy installation and would like some tips on how to do it properly. I thought of creating packages that depends on wine and to create a wineprefix for each game somewhere in /usr or /var mostly because different games want it's own settings and to control them separately. But this way I don't think updates of wine would be handled well. Another alternative is to include all the wine files in the package - but this seems to be a lo...

I read somewhere that in order for a program to work properly in Wine it should be installed in a clean enviroment, something along the lines of one software conflicting with anothers drivers/runtime/apps/etc. Is this true? Does this mean that I can only have one program installed with Wine at a time? Can one not create several 'fresh enviroments'?

Hi! I have difficulties using WineTools 2.1.0 with WINEPREFIX set. It does not matter whether use wineprefixcreate or not.

I wanted to ask to the wine experts something about WINEPREFIX or the crossover bottles... how does the concept of "bottles" compares/differs with the concept of application virtualization (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Application_Virtualization) used by VMware's Thinstall (http://www.thinstall.com/products/virtualization_suite.php) (aside for t...

Hello everybody, i got a question. Could it be possible to use an existing real windows 7 installation (on a separate partition) as a wineprefix and run programs from it?

What may cause this error? I'm trying to run Armored Brigade, which was working perfectly until I upgraded Wine from 1.2.3. to 1.3.24. I can't get sound to work in that game under that version of Wine. I have OSS V4 When I downgrade to 1.2.3. I can't run that game any more as I'm getting a segmentation fault error at start. I have tried uninstalling wine and removing the .wine

Folks I have a macro that fails in Word, are there any work-arounds, alternate dlls etc that can be suggested to get it going? Is there any forum dedicated to getting these going?

I have seen posts regarding WINEPREFIX so that Windows programs can be installed elsewhere than in the default .wine/drive_c/... folder. I have 2 or 3 Windows programs in the default folders which I run under Wine, and another program (Serif PagePlus 11) also in the default folder that does not run and I want to uninstall. Wine uninstal...
