In http://www.edsupport.cc/mguhlin/archives/2007/08/entry_3550.htm, Miguel Guhlin asked how to install MemoriesOnWeb and its recommended codecs under Wine, so here goes. All I did was translate his instructions to wine-ese. 1. Download xvid for windows from http://www.xvid.org/Downloads.15.0.html, install it the obvious way: $ wine XviD-1.1.3-28062007.exe 2.

A little commandline magic located it: $ rpm -q -l -p wine-0.9.2-1fc4winehq.i686.rpm | grep winecfg /usr/bin/winecfg So it looks like it's in

Hi all Is there a list of criterias for a 1.0 release of Wine? I couldn't find one. I was looking in the developers mailing list. But there's only a collection of bugs that must be fixed. An important question for me is: How many native DLLs will be accepted for a 1.0 version? I don't get the point that installing _multiple _native libraries to make an application installable

Long answer: if you have the sources for an application written in C or C++ for Windows, you may be able to recompile it for Linux for zSeries using Winelib, although some extra work may be required to finish porting winelib to zSeries; see

Thanks to James Hawkins and Mike McCormack, loads of progress has been made in fixing installer bugs lately, but there are probably many such bugs hiding in plain view still. It would be very helpful if people could look for installer bugs which: a) appear to be MSI or setupapi related, and b) aren't already in bugzilla (see

Found this while surfing random 'linux wine' blog hits: http://larsgard.com/nilsmagnus/?p=15 is a recipe for getting the datalog.exe tool that comes with the i-Blue 747 GPS reciever working in Wine. It uses usb as if it were a serial port. Kinda cool... - Dan -- Wine for Windows ISVs: http://kegel.com/wine/isv

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

Hi All, This past Wine conference, while great fun as always, was not as well attended as Wine conferences in the past. So I would like to stir up trouble by suggesting we rethink WineConf. For those that have not attended, the Wine conference has been a mostly annual affair since 2002. It is open to all, but is advertised as being aimed at Wine developers. About 35 people attend each year.

Hi I am running Slackware Linux 8.0 with Kernel 2.4.5 and perl 5.6.1. I have my windows partition(D:) mounted at /windows and my fat startuppartition(C:) at /dos. Windows itself is found in /windows/windows.

Hi all, What is best way to show only records belonging to logged user? I understand that it is better to handle this in model and not controller. I am thinking of intercepting find methods in model and add clause something like "WHERE id_user = #{user_id}". I would like to hear if you would do it likewise and if yes is it better to hack find_by_sql() or find() method? thanks in
