Hey guys, I'm just here to ask: Can I install Ubuntu using Wubi and use Wine on my C drive? Cuz it says in the Wiki FAQ to NOT "configure Wine to point to your actual Windows C:\ drive" http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#head-497f1a295d53dd3444f211df2b13312c7767afa2 But I only have one hard drive and that's the C drive! If I partition using the Install CD will it create a seperate D

how do you point the c drive to a physical drive? i am currently dual booting xp and ubuntu on a machine with a 400GB HDD but my ubuntu filesystem is currently 10GB which is nowhere near big enough to install anything within the wine directory - is it possible to point the wine c drive to my xp drive named system which i am mounting automatically each time the system starts as this has my xp

Doh123, how is running a program off an NTFS partition asking for trouble? Ntfsprogs seems to handle it just fine. I know that NTFS doesn't let you mark a file as executable, and that the filesystem is susceptible to fragmentation, but you should just be able to tell it to run rather than display and be good. It shouldn't cause destruction. I think there might even be an NTFS defrag tool

Whenever I run any application with wine it takes upwards of five minutes to start, even apps included with wine like wine cmd. I have been googling this for hours and cannot find anything really applicable to my situation. I am running Fedora 14 x86_64. I don't have a network printer. As far as I am aware fc-cache-32 doesn't exist on Fedora. I am trying to get some other program to

Hi, Over the last few days a couple of people have asked about WUBI liks process for CentOS. I've had to look up what WUBI is ( to save you time : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wubi_(Ubuntu) ) . Now the question: is there anyway to get something similar for CentOS ? or is there a process that someone might follow to achieve the same or similar result ? - KB

Hi all, Sorry to post OT but I'm a bit stuck and I thought someone may know the answer. Originally I installed Red Hat 5.2 with 2 paritions, boot and root. I upgraded to Red Hat 6 (kept the original filesystem) without a problem some time ago, but now I want to upgrade to 7.2. When trying to install the upgrade it tells me that the boot parition isnt big enough (by about 90k!) so I thought

Hello all, is it possible to use the native Linux libraries instead of their Windows builds? This can be a newbie question. :) I have a database program based on PostgreSQL and I think that coyping the Windows libraries for the application to run is a bit luxury when the same but native libraries with the same functions already exist for Linux and they are already installed on my system. I

Hello, I'm not sure if anyone else has had this problem, or has tried this, but I am running WINE under Mac OS 10.5.7 on my MacBook and I'm trying to play the Half Life 2 Demo to see if it's worth purchasing Orange Box.

Hey guys, I'm a new Ubuntu convert (installed through Wubi, and am blown away!) I'd love to get wine working so I play games etc, but I've got a lot of learning to do when it comes to installing and getting things working. So, I want to use the 1.0-rc1 version of wine, but CoD4 requires the 3dmark.diff patch. This is what I think I need to be doing: with the 3dmark.diff file

Hello All, I recently converted my wife over to Ubuntu 8.04 and wanted to do the same to my children's PC. I have checked AppDB and was unable to find a listing for this game already.

When I double-click on the icon for the game, it thinks for a minute like it was trying to launch but then

I installed Java 1.6 update 5 and Firefox. Firefox works "okay", and some elements like Flash objects (videos on youtube and cartoons on AlbinoBlackSheep to name some examples) work a bit faster than they do on the native linux version of Firefox, so I wanted to try Java.
