There was a time when I managed to get Office 2000 (or those parts of it I wanted) and Shockwave both installed in wine, using winetools. However, under later versions, that is not suitable. I am wondering if anyone has yet succeeded. My specific problems: Office installer: when I get to the part where I choose the required components, the icon to indicate the installation type selected for

I installed Wine, Firefox 2.0.0.14, and (through Firefox) Shockwave, but Shockwave doesn't work. It just says "Adobe Shockwave Player is now installing." (Maybe they missed the T key for W...) Help?

My daughter likes to play games on noggin.com and nickjr.com. The problem is that some of them will play with Flash 9, which I have installed, but many require Shockwave, which doesn't exist for Linux. Is there any way to get a shockwave plugin to work with Firefox 2.0 and a 2.6.x kernel. My daughter would really appreciate it, and so would I! Marc Shapiro

I'm trying to get the Windows/Mac application Lexialearning to run under mint linux (elyssa). I installed Wine 1.0, installed Lexia, tried to run it. It wanted Shockwave. Adobe won't let me have shockwave because I don't have a browser they support, but I got the installer (for shockwave 11) from download.com. I ran the installation program, it asked what language I want to use

Firstly, I apologise for the blatant help me nature of this question but time is really against me and I wondered if any experienced Linux/Wine users would be able to give me some basic pointers from their own experiences. I have built 2 very budget PCs for my kids (8+5) running Ubuntu 10.04 x32. Both have good Nvidia graphics and can play HD video. In fact everything is tip top apart from Web

I don't make that much use of Wine but do sometimes need real MS Word, and sometimes like to play some of the games on the shockwave.com site. However, there have been a number of upgrades recently to Wine and these have now stopped working with the following symptoms: Office: Running applications from an existing install says "This application must be installed to run. Please run Setup

I have achieved much of what I wanted to achieve using Wine, with one exception. I was hoping to be able to use Shockwave content, but despite installing Firefox and the Shockwave plugin, it does not work - it seems to stop after the promotional film before the actual requested content. I know there are "pay" solutions to this problem, but was wondering if anyone had found a free

Hey, I am using CentOS-3 as a desktop distribution. With the exception of fewer red hats and some different logos, it looks exactly like RedHat 9 to me. The problem is some web sites do not work right, as there is no Shockwave Flash player and Java support seems to be a problem. For some web sites, I have to used Windows. I prefer not to download and install something that YUM could not

Hi there, OK I thought I had this problem solved last week. Last week with help from this list, we installed the flash player on my Centos 5 desktop machine. But now when I go to cnbc, I am getting that same problem when trying to view vids on their site. So I click the icon where the empty video frame is to install the plugin, the "no suitable plugins were found" box come comes up

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I'm looking for an Ogg/Vorbis player in Macromedia Flash, for embedding into webpages. I discovered a Java-based player but it's a non-starter.

subject says most.. I DO have ie working with shockwave, it's just that it's a bit slow... i suspect native opera and native firefox will be faster if wine only have to emulate the shockwave/windows plugin part?

Okay, I got the issue with the desktop size resolved. The first thing I'm trying to get running is Shockwave. I had it running the last time I tried to use Wine a few months ago. As far as I can tell, it was never uninstalled before, even though I did uninstall Wine. Now, I'm trying to get it back up and running and don't know how. The .exe file is on my linux desktop and I don't

I''ve discovered something very odd about the way Rails is handling Flash media. I am attempting to load a partial that contains the code for a flash adverstisment for the website. It was working ok when the code was in the page, but once I pulled it out to a partial (so I could use it on other pages) it stopped working. <%= render(:partial =>
