i'm trying to clean up my error messages on Wine stuff. one that has come up before was the one about ERROR: You need to merge the 'winedefault.reg' file into your Wine registry by running: `regedit winedefault.reg' i found the directory/file regedit and the winedefault.reg. i ran $/home/wine.alpha/wine-20020509/programs/regedit/regedit

i have heard some stories from some people who claim to have been able to set up a partition in linux and install win98 via wine and then having it fire up. i know wine isnt designed for this purpose but apparantly it has been done....who knows, maybe someone is pulling my leg. i'm just wondering if there is anyone out there who has pulled this off and if so how did they go about doing it. i

Anyone have a preference as to which Linux installation runs smoothest with WINE? Redhat? Mandrake? Also, are there any packages to avoid installing with WINE? Any that seem to really help?

Hello people, I'm trying to run a cobol application under wine and I'm getting several problems with forms windows. Some forms windows in my app are appearing larger than the screen size (800x600) but the wm don't let me resize then to see all the form. I already try setting the font size to a smaller size but windows still get larger than the screen. I also tried changing from GNOME

I'd like to have a couple of windows app working in linux without rebooting (visual basic and JMP). I downloaded codeweavers wine but I have a question about windows partition or no windows partition... My present system is not dual boot. So ideally I'd like to run wine without a "real" windows partition. However, I have heard that wine works better with a "real"

Awhile back i started having trouble With intellicad running on wine. after backing up to older versions of wine and older known working configs the problem persisted. at the time i was running debian/sid(unstable). i've upgraded to woody and things seem to be working correctly again. i don't think the problem was Wine itself, but one of the libs that it relied on. anyway i just

i have a number of applications that i would like to be able to run with 100% builtin dlls. i've run them in the past using some native. i'm hitting a snag on the need for mfc42.dll. does wine have a libmfc42.so? how do i work around this? -- Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of DOS, and danced the skies on Linux silvered wings. http://pfrostie.freeservers.com/cad-tastrafy/

my ten key pad no longer seems to work on wine apps. is there something that i need to add to my config. i've been doing a lot of tweaking lately and might have deleted it on accident. -- Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of DOS, and danced the skies on Linux silvered wings. http://pfrostie.freeservers.com/cad-tastrafy/ http://www.freelists.org/list/cad-linux

i've been working on smoothing out the use of intellicad with wine, but recently a new bug seems to have started. the mouse works fine just going thru the icons and and menus but if i click into the drawing area it locks up the application. has there been any changes to the way this would be handled inwine? i'll keep working on backtracking to see if it could be something on my

Greetings. The application I am trying to get to work under wine (Cinema4D network rendering client) works nearly OK. Just one crucial bit it fails, very unspectacularly and silently, to do. What it's supposed to do: receiving 3d scenes from a server, rendering those, and sending them back - this all works just as under windows, except for the sending back of files. About the only indication

Hello I tried to install an old version of autocad (13, student edition, Release 13c4a), on a MSWindows-free box.

I hope i am posting this to the right list. Specs: FreeBSD 4.x Wine 20011108 -- FreeBSD ports version Me == Newbie I am trying to configure wine manually because the package i recieved does not include winesetup. I configured the drives to suit my setup and left the rest as the defaults. When i try to start wine with "wine program.exe" i get this error:

I have Wine working, and my Windows XP-installation mounted as read only. Reading the FAQ, I noticed: "DON'T configure Wine to use an NT-based Windows install (NT, Win2K, WinXP)." So... is it futile to try to get XP-applications running on my Linux-box? Should I install them from Wine, and if so, how? "wine SETUP.EXE"? I'm mostly interested in running Instant Messanger

I'm trying to run OrCAD, an electronic CAD for windows without result. Here is the command line and the "answer": $ wine /mnt/win_c/Program\ Files/Orcad/Capture/capture.exe err:module:load_builtin_dll loaded .so for L"W32SYS.DLL" but got L"w32skrnl.dll" instead - probably 16-bit dll fixme:ole:CoRegisterMessageFilter stub wine: Unhandled exception (thread 0009),

I'm trying to run different win32 apps with different configs. i was looking thru the man page and found the WINEPREFIX. i added export WINEPREFIX=$HOME/.wine.icad to my script that i use to launch my application.

My OS is RedHat 7.2 and wine is the download rpm file: codeweavers-wine-20011108-5.i386.rpm The program I am trying to run on wine came with my Rex 6000 pda.

> I have tried some CAD packages on wine. In fact, I am a student of > architecture who wants to get a working CAD app on his Linux Laptop. I can't help. But have you looked at qcad? It's a CAD app that runs on Linux. You can find it at www.qcad.org.

I've downloaded codeweavers-wine-20011108, and installed it on a Red Hat 6.1 linux box. It won't launch any programs, however, and returns an error message that says it needs a "true Windows partition mounted under Linux" or an "empty Windows directory". Does this mean I need to repartition the hard drive? Thanks, again, Roy

Hi, I am new to Wine. I really want to investigate into it. I also appreciate and want to say thankyou for all the work that wine developers done. I've got the following message from running Adobe Illustrator... does anyone know what is %WINEPREX% ? Couldn't find PPD file '%WINEPREFIX%/generic.ppd', expect a crash now! Thanks. David
