Dont know if iys the done thing, but I contacted the writer of an app I maintain in AppDB, to point out that his app runs perfectly under Linux and Wine. Straught away he modified his webpage to include the fact, and a link to the AppDB page for his application. Cheers, Ron. -- I prefer the most unjust peace to the most righteous war.

From a complete Wine newbie: I use Wine to run apps related with GPS receivers. I have upgraded from 0.9.33 which came with Mandriva 2007.1 Spring to 0.9.46 from WineHQ. Net result, the Garmin Mapsource app now loads and runs perfectly, which it did not do before. But GPSMapEdit, which worked before, no longer does. Question: is it possible to have to versions of Wine installed, and use one

Going to install .47 to replace .46. Should I delete ~/.wine and reinstall all my apps, to make sure I catch any possible regression ? Cheers, Ron. -- When you are in it up to your ears, keep your mouth shut. -- http://www.olgiati-in-paraguay.org --

I need to use an app that stopped working somewhere between 0.9.33 and 0.9.44 IIRC. Anyone know where I could download a Mandriva .rpm for 0.9.33 ? Seems no longer available at Sourceforge. Cheers, Ron. -- Windows VISTA : Viruses Infections Spyware

We have launched a web forum front end to this mailing list. I wanted to notify the subscribers of this list to that fact. http://forum.winehq.org If you prefer, you can now use this website to browse and post to the list. Your posts will still be mailed out to the list, and posts to the list will appear in the forum. You can continue to use the mailing list as you always have if you prefer

Hi all, First off - this is not flame bait or a troll. It's a genuine question. Since the forum gateway was introduced, it is my opinion that this list is getting flooded with newbie questions. Check the "I just installed Ubuntu" thread for a typical example. I wish to silently remove all wine-forum posts and their replies from my inbox. I plan to filter based on From:

I am creating habitat selection models for caribou and other species with data collected from GPS collars. In my current situation the radio-collars recorded the locations of 30 caribou every 6 hours. I am then comparing resources used at caribou locations to random locations using logistic regression (standard habitat analysis). The data is therefore highly autocorrelated and this causes Type

Hello, everyone - I have an old Windows app - a ship navigation program - that needs to see GPS input on a serial port (it was written in the pre-USB days.) My laptop, however, has no serial ports - but this same program, when run on a friend's Windows box, can read the GPS info from the USB-connected GPS via the "USB-Serial Driver". This is one of the frustrating bits of this

Hello, I have an application that access two different DBMS - Firebird and Postgres. So far, that''s ok. The problem is, depending on the customer logged, a different database (Firebird) must be selected. To make the things clearer: Postgres: 1 database shared by all customers with these tables: - user - vehicle - driver Firebird: several databases with different names and identical

Hi! I'm currently working on a project to upgrade my car's display with NAV... Due to prohibitive high costs of oem solutions (and limited use except for nav), I decided to use a laptop, runnig that software... So, I already have MS Autoroute 2001 (european version). Against my expectations, this program runs fine with Wine release 20011004. However, the GPS Add-In doesn't work.

Hi. I am trying to do histograms in lattice, and I want to get both counts and percents in the same plot. To try to be clearer --- there are 3 levels to my factor; I'd like to get a 2 x 3 array of plots where the top row consist of histograms by counts and the bottom consists of (the corresponding) histograms by percent. I tried the following: # Demo. library(lattice) set.seed(42) XX <-

Hello everyone and best wishes for 2023 :) I have an old *Garmin Drive Smart 50 GPS* and I want to be able to attach it when it is in preboot mode to a VM hosted by a *Debian 11 host*. From what I understand, the preboot mode allows us to flash a firmware before the GPS actually starts (used among other things when the GPS is soft bricked). When I connect the GPS to the host it gives:
