I just installed Wine last night. First let me say: it's awesome! Much better than I supposed. I decided to try Wine because I've been trying to get file compat- ability between Linux and PasswordSafe, a great Windows password manager. I copied all the PasswordSafe files to their own directory in my $HOME so that PasswordSafe could write it's database. I cd to that directory;

Hey,I just installed SUSE 10.2 and added the wine Repo to my yast,when I go to the "software management" and search for Wine I can only see : Wine Wineasio Winedoors Winetools I've installed these,now when I try to start Winecfg by running using one of the 2 commands "$ /usr/local/bin/winecfg" or "$ winecfg" in my shell I get a message saying : "bash: $:

I just red the article on the website about winetools. This is controversy is a non starter in my oppinion. I believe that something like winetools should be included in the wine distribution to begin with. It should be something under the control of the developers themselves and bug reports should be added to fix any problems. Why did it take someone outside of the wine development team to

I want to be able to use Wine to reach the /home base partition or directory. By wanting such a thing, do I install Wine on the /usr directory or do I do that on home itself?

Hello out there, perhaps anybody has some idea for my problem. I've had several nice successes with WINE. GoogleEarth e.g. or some of my old tools of the windows-times. Now yesterday I've sent my tax-declaration (in Germany: ElsterFormular) to the tax-administration, online. BUT: I couldn't print the declaration!! NOTHING at all happened. I havn't ever tried to print, it was not

Hi everyone! I'm using Ubuntu Dapper and today i build an individual kernel based on the vanilla sources for 2.6.16 with the CK Patchset. Everything works fine, except wine. Everytime i start an application with wine or just winecfg it needs a long time to come up. Winecfg e.g. needs about 2 minutes (with the default Ubuntu kernel abount 10s). During that wait time i can hear some

Greetings from a noob. I am having a little difficulty trying out Wine-20050111 on a fully updated athlon fedora core 2 system and hope other wine users can help. Review of the wine-users.pdf file included in the wine rpm and scanning some of the wine-users mailing list archives have not pointed to any solutions. I am trying to install Turbotax from a Turbtax distribution CD. (The only

Hello, I built wine-0.9.15 today. It installs and works to a small extent that I tested it. I then attempted to install and run winetools and had some problems. If anyone sees what I'm doing wrong please let me know. Thanks. 1) Install wine 2) Run 'wine notepad' to create initial .wine directory. Notepad opens. mark@dragonfly ~ $ wine notepad wine: creating configuration directory

I just installed on my up to date FreeBSD 5.4 box. I'm a little confused as to whether or not there are things I need to configure or not. I went to go through the docs, and it was talking about using a file named "config" as a template, and modifying from there. Well that file didn't exist anywhere on my machine, or in the source I downloaded. In fact, looking in the Wine CVS

I installed wine version 0.9.24 and winetools on my computer (OpenSuse 10.2) but I can't get it to configure at all. I first tried winetools and it said that I didn't have a configuration so run with the command wt. So I typed wt and nothing happened. Heres where I think the main problem lies though. When I attempt to do winecfg I get a ton of errors. Here is the output:

i used to use application, called RAdmin, with earlier versions of wine (prior 0.9.11). it works pretty well with oprtion Desktop="1024x768". but now in winecfg this option is grayed out and setting HKCU/Sofware/Wine/AppDefaults/radmin.exe/X11 Driver/Desktop registry key to "1024x768" doesn't work. and without this option keyboard doesn't work on remote hosts. --

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

I am very new to Linux but am enjoying it and liking it very much. I am up and running on debian sarge. Everything has been smooth except for one problem. I am invested in the Logos Bible Program and am trying to get it to run with wine. It gives me a textbox that says it must run on windows 98 ver or higher. I do not know what else to do. I am a minister and must use this program. What do

Hi list, Every time before I post a problem or question, I try to upgrade my wine to the latest version (as I was told to do at the beginning). Well I'm going on to my 5th or 6th new version of wine. As an experienced Windows user (and a fairly new, but OK Linux user) I am concerned about the effect on my computer of simply installing wine after wine after wine. I seem to recall copying

I am now at the point where I have one more thing to install before I can scrap my Windows box - and it's Leisure Suit Larry's Greatest Hits and Misses. I have installed the DOS-based parts of it in dosbox, and also used sarien and freesci to handle some of it, but there is a significant part of this collection that needs Windows. Trying an installation with the default Windows version

I can't seem to locate wine.conf in wine version 0.9.4. I made configuration changes using WineTools and now I can't change the configuration anymore. I'm assuming assigning a native dll is causing problems and I'd like to change it back. thanx Jeff
