Hi, I have downloaded and modified the source for rgui - because I wanted to add a few more custom menus to the GUI. I have almost got it completed, but have spent the last four hours trying to resolve the following issue (no pun intended !) Linking... R.lib(R.dll) : error LNK2005: _WatchCursor already defined in cursors.obj R.lib(R.dll) : error LNK2005: _ArrowCursor already defined in

Is this a common warning? The decoder doesn't return an error on it, but I see it a lot in my test application on windows. It is non existent on my linux box. I haven't tried mingw yet. please note that I'm using visual studio 2008 w/the vcproj that Bjoern Rasmussen made for 0.5.2 (w/some file references removed) at the moment and it is giving a lot of C4554 warnings

Whew. I have to take a breather for a week or two from the wine-users traffic. See you all when my hands are less sore...

http://kegel.com/wine/qa/#app is a list of "must-have" Windows applications for various vertical markets (at the moment, just k12 schools and churches). These are the Windows apps that really keep a school, church, or other organization from switching to Linux. I'm hoping that this list will help focus Wine QA on those key Windows apps, and thereby increase the number of groups who

Hi, i'm just starting with Linux, and by ny job I have to program in Fortran, and I use Microsoft Fortran Powerstation (an IDE) because of its integrated IMSL library. Now I tried to run it from Linux simply with the command wine msdev.exe, and the first time it worked. After that when the window starts to open another window opens with the title "Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime

Hello all, I wonder if there is a way to set up the so-called JDF library required by several Adobe software? I haven't been able to find out what it is, nor whether wine has any way to set this up, or even if I can copy windows DLL's over. I can get Adobe Acrobat 7.0 to run, for example, but many actions fail with the error "cannot initialize JDF library". Any enlightenment

I''m a complete newbie at Xen, just getting started. I was happy to see that Ubuntu 11.10 includes Xen again, http://zulcss.wordpress.com/2011/09/04/xen-4-1-1-on-ubuntu/ So I installed ubuntu 11.10''s precompiled Xen, and started playing around with it. I''m not even trying to start another VM at the moment, just playing around with mounting block devices, and had trouble

It has been suggested that the wine-users list is now too busy, and needs to be split into two: one for experienced users, and one for beginners. However, this might leave the beginners adrift without any experienced people to help them. So I don't think we should do it unless at least a handful of experienced users are willing to join the new group and lend a hand. I'm willing, but I

Hi, I'm trying to install Lotus Notes Client 6.5 in Brazilian Portuguese with Wine 0.9.36 and its doesn't work. I find in http://wiki.winehq.org/LotusNotes that this version of wine can install and run the Lotus Notes 6.0, 6.5, and 7 Windows clients without any special effort. And don't find any bugs related to that. Someone know something about? Thanks, Vitor ubuntu 7.04

Detlef contributed verbs vbrun3 and vbrun4, thanks! And I added vbrun5 and vbrun6 as the preferred synonym for the existing verbs vbvm5 and vbrun60. That should be easier. As always, winetricks is at http://kegel.com/wine/winetricks and its source repository is at http://winezeug.googlecode.com

In http://www.edsupport.cc/mguhlin/archives/2007/08/entry_3550.htm, Miguel Guhlin asked how to install MemoriesOnWeb and its recommended codecs under Wine, so here goes. All I did was translate his instructions to wine-ese. 1. Download xvid for windows from http://www.xvid.org/Downloads.15.0.html, install it the obvious way: $ wine XviD-1.1.3-28062007.exe 2. Download lame from

Big news: as of today or so, wine doesn't need any patches to install the .net 2.0 runtime or run trivial .net 2.0 apps, so I've added a dotnet20 verb. No more futzing with recipes to try out simple .net 2 apps, huzzah! There are lots of other little changes, too: 20080402 r21 Added dotnet20, removed one kludge from dotnet11, added win2k verb, plus shorthand for winver=foo r20

I have 3 years of experience with R and have an interest in becoming a better programmer so that I might someday be able to contribute packages. Other than R, my only experience was taking Lisp from Daniel Friedman in the 1970's. I would like to learn either C or C++ for several reasons: To gain a better concept of object oriented programming so that I can begin to use S4 methods in R. To

Hi everybody, I'd like to play Myst III - Exile with wine on Ubuntu 8.04 but the installation doesn't work. In fact I have the Trilogy DVD edition with Myst, Riven and Exile and I saw that Riven works well : http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=10719. But my problem is a bit weird : I can't find any exe file on the DVD to install Exile !!! Riven is easy to

Hi, Wine 0.9.17 user here having bad headaches with Photoshop menus... When choosing an option from the context menu or some other sorts of drop downs, the respective areas are not clickable even they are highlighted. Other thing would be that when I'm opening Blending Options, set some effects, then click OK, the tool windows is disappearing ... Could you advise on this matter, please?

Now that 'winetricks dotnet11' can run one simple .net 1.1 app properly... what other apps are out there that need .net 1.1? How well do they run with Wine after you install .net 1.1 using a fresh copy of winetricks?
