I just installed Wine into Ubuntu 10.4, from Ubuntu's Software Center (the installation instructions at WineHQ didn't work). I've tried installing a couple of Windows programs from CD (a set of clip art images from Nova Development Corp, and Willmaker Plus from Intuit). Every executable I've tried generates the following standard error message: Archive:

Hello. I am trying to boot CentOS 4 from a copy of an ext3 software RAID 1 filesystem (md) which has been copied to a normal ext3 filesystem (hd). I am almost getting there, exept that the system hangs after booting the kernel. I copied the datas from the /boot and / partitions to two similar partitions on the backuped disk with mirrordir (can also be done with cp or dd). I have setup the new

Hi, I was trying to use the autorun feature of rspec but noticed that when I run the command to kick off the ruby scripts it picks up the options that I give to the command. ''myRubyBin -j optionValue'' This then fails with this error, /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/optparse.rb:1448:in `complete'' : invalid option: -j ( OptionParser::InvalidOption ) from

I am running Wine 1.2-rc7 on a Ubuntu 10.04 minimal install. I have installed X, and Wine seems to run fine. The problem is that applications that want to make a "window list" or taskbar don't draw them. It isn't a fatal error, the applications simply act like nothing happened. For instance, when I use BBClean (blackbox for Windows), it shows the panel but not the window list.

Hi, I'm trying to install version 4.0 from the CD that came with my GPS unit. I'm able to run Setup.exe and get to the initial startup menu. The links to visit the Garmin website and exit the installation work fine but when I click the one to install the app I get the hourglass cursor for a fraction of a second, like it's starting to do something, but nothing happens. This is my first

Hi, I have a problem with R; it won't start! I've installed it fine, no problems, but when I try to run it the mouse cursor changes to an hourglass for 1 second and back to normal, and that's it, it doesn't start up. No error messages or nothing. I run Windows XP Pro. by the way. I'd be thankful for any help. [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hi guys, Up until recently, I've been able to tab out of Source engine games (L4D2, TF2, and so forth) without a problem. It's never given me an issue before, so I can tab out and check for IMs and such. However, recently it won't let me do so. It may have been because I reinstalled Lucid Lynx Ubuntu, but now if anything brings the taskbar to the front, the game still runs but it

I am new to linux, and new to wine, and think I may have actually stepped a little out of my depth by jumping into it without a little more coding/programming experience. I am running Kubuntu Hardy, and have encountered a serious problem with wine 1.1.7, in that it doesn't want to function. If I click on exe files, it will open a tab on the taskbar, show activity, then kill the tab.

I have two computers both of which are running Windows XP SP2. R 1.9.1 runs just fine on one but not the other. Both installations of R came from the same installation package. When I click on the desktop icon an hourglass shows up then disappears. Similarly, if I start RGUI the process shows up in task-manager then abruptly disappears. Interestingly, I can access R in Excel via the D(COM) Server

hello I am using compiz in fc6 and have this problem (tryed 0.3.2 and still have the same issue): When a window that have subwindows like gets minimized and I klick on it on the panels taskbar onle the subwindow shows up, but not the main window. I have to use alt+tab to open it. it also happens with floating buttonbars in openoffice so I add a list in openoffice it shows the bar with the

Hi, The minimize plugin conflicts with Animation. For example, it doesn't let Animation draw shade animations, and interferes with other window event animations. The animation plugin now minimizes the relevant effects to taskbar, so using the two plugins together doesn't make sense anymore. Moreover, by default Animation is off, Minimize is on, and when users enable Animation, naturally

Hi all, I am using Centos 4.1 with Gnome and my updates are OK (When I do yum update, I have nothing anymore) Normally, with GNOME there's a task bar in the bottom of the screen. If we open an application and we minimize its window, it is always avalaible in this task bar. There are other things in this task bar : a button on the left which is used to minimize all the opened windows and

Hello list, I've put CentOS 6.3 x86_64 on my desktop, replacing Fedora 17 x86_64. This is the first time I'm using CentOS on a desktop, so far only on the servers. The problem is with thawing from hibernation. Time from turning on the hibernated machine to reaching the login prompt is not that of an issue, although sometimes it can take a while (significantly more than with Fedora).

Please help, I Did my best at following instructions and reading documentation and newsgroups but am still confused. I have some questions: I have no windows partition or MicroSoft Windows. I have /c, /c/Program_Files..... I did run winesetuptk to generate some registries When I run winecheck I get 021. Checking availability of windows registry entries... CRITICAL (entry "Default

I'm not sure when this problem first occurred - it is many months since I last editted a sieve filter. I am certainly several versions of Thunderbird and, probably, a few versions of Dovecot on from when I last editted a sieve filter. However, I do know that I have done so in the past. I have just built Dovecot 2.2.13 and Pigeonhole 0.4.3, installed and running on Slackware 14.1 x64. I

Hello. I installed Far Cry 2 + the patch. I have suse 11.4 + KDE. The run button doesn't do anything. Right after I installed it, I use the autorun feature to get far cry running. After I reboot, I can't get the feature to work again. The start menu has far cry references, but they give file not found. The correct location: media\FARCRY2, it's set at media\cdrom. I have to attemped a

My file/print/mail server is CentOS. My laptop is Mandriva 2008.0. I have smb shortcuts loaded by fstab to give instant access to my home directory and a data directory on the server. All was working well, after some initial problems with firewall and selinux, until yesterday. After finding from the logs that someone was trying to get into my imap server I decided that, although they

I'm trying to install Wine 20011004. ./tools/wineinstall crashed my box so I went for manually installing. When I try ./tools/winecheck I get a 024. Checking availability of windows registry entries... CRITICAL (entry "Default Taskbar" not found). Then it tells me, as an advice, that the windows registry isn't installed. I did a ./programs/regapi/regapi setValue <
