Hello, am running Wine on Mandrake 8, using a 'fake' windows directory, that I created according to instructions on the Codeweavers website. Unfortunately, most apps don't run at all or run with errors. Would I achive better results by creating a separate partition, installing Windows on it with all the apps and using that partition with Wine? If yes, would some special setup of

Hi, I'm trying to run a third party M$-ACCESS application in wine (0.9.26 on kubuntu). The app installs fine, but yields an error when reading the ACCESS database (tried in win98 and win2000 mode). Any hints? Any FAQ or dedicated page? In particular, I've read about using original M$-DLLs in wine for ACCESS support. Would this possibly solve the problem? If yes, which win version

I had the latest wine running under winblows 98 SE for a week or two with no problems, then I installed winblows 2000 and now I cannot get wine to work. It is important for me to get it running again since I run United Devices cancer research agent (http://members.ud.com) 24/7 to help them find a cure for cancer. Is wine compatible with Win2k, or will I need to re-install 98 again? -- Interested

Hi, I want to replace some of the builtin libraries of Wine with native ones to improve performance in some games. The wine documentation refers to a '~/.wine/config' that doesn't exist. From what I've gathered from this mailing list, I should simply move the native dlls I want into the fake c drive (.wine/drive_c/windows) and Wine will use them instead. Is this right or am I

All, Anyone willing to share a .wine/config that's working with a 9x install? I've been playing around, even blowing away the win98 slice and installing it from scratch, but when running wineboot, I still get 10-15 crashes to the debugger. So far, about all I can run is notepad sucessfully. The ironic thing is, if I use just wine, I have much fewer problems, but would like to be able to

For a month I've been trying to get ActiveX controls working from the ToolkitCMA.com site with IE6. Some serious weirdness going on. So now I check what I look like at http://bellsnwhistles.com/bells.html, and it informs me that: "The Browser you are using is Microsoft Internet Explorer (Mozilla) 4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows 98)" Eh no, I check Help|About IE, and it

I still have a Win98 SE CD and license that's not used any more. Does it make sense to install this on an extra partition and use it as the basis for a wine installation? Or copy everything from that partition to fake_windows? +----------------------+ Carl Weitz cmweitz@web.de +----------------------+ ____________________________________________________ Aufnehmen, abschicken, nah

Hi all Some time ago I asked about support of WinME and Win2000. The answer was: not ready yet. These days, when people enjoy VSS under Linux, I have to admit I really need wine:) So in a word: can I use Wine with any of these OSes? Could anyone please point me out to the settings I need in my config file (I am especially interested in Profile option)? Thanks in advance Sergey

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've installed samba in my linux machine (Mandrake 7.2). With WinNT and Win2000 there is no problems, but in Win95 and Win98 It's impossible to read files, and open exixting folders, the error is: "the file (folder) don't exist". If I try to create one, It'isn't shown, there is an error, but if I go in machine with win2000 the folder(file) is there. How can I resolve

It is ntfs so

Hello all, I've been following this project with interest, and have had great fun implementing Isolinux within the FreeDOS cdrom distribution.
