similar to: launching native linux applications from within a wined app

Is there any interface, which can be used to call a Native Linux app to start up, from within a Win32 application.

Also sent to Codeweavers - [what is this list's insights?] I have a 32 GB, dual quad-core desktop machine and was considering 32-bit Windows XP w/SP2, but discovered it only supports up to 4 GB RAM, so that idea is shot. Next in line is 64-bit CentOS 5. The major need for Windows would be very active use of Adobe Acrobat 8, Photoshop CS3, and Illustrator CS3. There may also be the need

I have been trying for the past couple of week to get copernic agent professional and system shock 2 to run successfully under wine. But with no success. Every time I install copernic agent and it almost finish installing I get an error message unable to initialize folder.

I have installed a software working fine with WINE (some special financial software from my company I work for) but I can't get Acrobat Reader to launch, when I try to open a pdf File from that application. Acrobat is installed. On the console I get this message: Code: fixme:exec:SHELL_execute flags ignored: 0x00000100 Same when I try that: Code: wine start

I have Windows XP machines with different software configurations. My laptop has Adobe Reader 8 and Adobe Acrobat 6. My desktop has Adobe Reader 8 and does not have Adobe Acrobat. On both machines, PDF extensions are registered to Adobe Reader 8.0, and double-clicking a pdf file in Windows Explorer opens Adobe Reader 8.0. In R-2.5.0, with all Adobe windows closed, the command

Hello everyone, we have a windows program, called Assist that needs Acrobat Reader to run completely since it is basically a PDF viewer. This programs has plugins for Acrobat. I can run successfully Assist & Acrobat reader separately but Assist cannot run Acrobat by itself, I get a message that Acrobat is not running. Is it possible to do this with wine ? Best regards, Manolis

Full_Name: Marc Thibault Version: 2.8.1 OS: Windows XP Pro SP2 Submission from: (NULL) (216.104.125.106) I had Adobe Acrobat 5 and Adobe Reader 9 installed. The .pdf "open" association is to Reader.

I have had Adobe Acrobat Reader 7.0.1 installed on my CentOS 4.2 desktop and it worked fine. After upgrading to 4.3, I can't get it to come up anymore. I downloaded Acrobat Reader 7.0.5 and it does the same. I'd appreciate any suggestions on what to look for, since the executable and the startup scripts are not giving me any useful errors to chase. -- Ron Loftin

Hello, list! I'm hosting a mirror of the book "Asterisk: The Future Of Telephony" by O'Reilly Press, published under the Creative Commons license; I believe this license allows me to do this, but if I'm mistaken, please let me know. I've taken the liberty of fixing the page numbers so Acrobat is now aware of the correct number of each page, and shrinking the

Hi all, Does anybody know of an editor that can do on Linux what Acrobat / Acrobat Pro can do on Mac/Windows? I have tried to use the PDF Import extension to the Open Office which appears barely functional - at least it is so slow as to be almost impractical. I have also tried pdfedit under Linux which seems to work fine but seems to have rather limited functionality. For instance, the capability

Dear List: When I click on the link to download a reference manual for a package on cran, I get an error message that the file is damaged and could not be repaired. I randomly chose various packages and the same error message appears. Are the links actually broken? I have also restarted my machine and closed and re-opened acrobat. I am using Windows XP, Acrobat Professional 6.0.0.5, and

Hi, this might be off topic because it's not a samba problem, but might be interesting for others too. We are running an older samba 3.0.24 working as domain controller (no DFS features). When opening a .pdf file with the Acrobat Reader X from a WinXP SP3 client (maschine is member of the domain) the Acrobat Reader X shows a "permission denied". We see the following in the samba

I'm trying to select a subset of a dataframe while dropping some factors. While the dataset gets smaller all Factor levels remain and I need to get rid of them. Strangely enough, I am almost certain that the same code on the same data worked OK earlier today - and it is not the first time that I'm not able to replicate earlier results with this command (I know, I might just be going

hi all, I'm using the official wine-20041201-0.1 on Sue 9.1 (i386). I used winetools 2.10 to facilitate my wine installation and it was a godsand. I have installed Office 2000 and so far so good, but I like to extend my wine functionality just a bit more. I like to install Acrobat 5 (not reader) with PDFWriter on my wine installation. The problem I have is that, during the

Hello, I'm relatively new to this wonderful forum. Kudos to the Wine Development Team. I did a search on my question, but couldn't find the answer. So please forgive me if this topic has come up before... I'm currently running Wine 0.9.58. I have an Adobe Acrobat 4.0 installation disk with an Acrobat 6.0 upgrade disk (both properly licensed). I can install 4.0 without a problem;

Having had a working version of Acrobat Reader, I upgraded to 7.0.5 a couple of days ago (without backing up the previous install, of course). Unfortunately, the acroread command fails with: GTK+ UI Toolkit libraries, ver. 2.4 or greater were not found. The (CentOS 3) standard libraries for gtk+ etc. are installed. Anyone know what is the most recent compatible version of Acrobat Reader for
