Hello all, Ubuntu (Dapper) newbie here. I installed Ubuntu two days ago. Also installed Wine. Wine appears somewhat ok. I installed and can run Filezilla. I also have a windows game (Steel Panthers World at War) that installed ok, and appears to play ok, though the movement is a little slow and a little choppy. Anyways, I'm trying to run a W95 game, Panzer General 2. The Wine site says it

Hi, I'm trying to use Enterprise Architect under wine.

Hi everyone, I recently switched to Ubuntu 6.06 (Dapper Drake) GNU/Linux. I installed wine 0.9.9 using Synaptic package manager, and then downloaded steamInstall.exe from http://www.steampowered.com. The installation worked more or less (at first, it occupied progressively (according to the system monitor widgets on the panel) all the free space in my /home/~ (1,2 Gb), all the swap space (1Gb)

Hello everybody, I installed Ubuntu 10.10 a few days ago after Windows Vista crashed again. I have to say that Linux is way better than Windows, so I don't want to go back. But I like to game sometimes, and that's the only thing Windows does better than Linux. I want to install Battlefield 2, but it really doesn't work. I already did a lot of research, but everybody always says:

I've installed Hitman Blood Money (twice), using Playonlinux. The installation went (almost perfectly) well, but directx installation crashed. When I launch the game, it works fine but the image is upside down...

I was able to install PowerDVD 4.0 by overriding mfc42.dll. So I could close bug 6067. Trying to run it I get: Unhandled exception: unimplemented function MFC42.DLL.6467 called in 32-bit code (0x7bc37f38). What should I do with this info? Open somewhere a bug? Is it a non-Wine bug? Googling for it gives that some other people had problems with it (see

I used to use Windows; now I use Linux. One application I used under Windows was MS Money; under Linux, I've been using Gnucash instead. However, Gnucash has been causing me some problems recently, so I thought of trying to use Wine to run my old copy of MS Money under Linux. I downloaded and installed an RPM of Wine for my distribution, wine-core-0.9.16-2.fc3.i386.rpm. That done, I used
