similar to: shared .wine directory?

Is it possible to put Wine on somewhere that's other than the Home partition? Like a separate "windows" partition? Also, as I intend to use the Home partition to store most of my work/documents, is there a way for Wine to look beyond the Home/ whatever directory it's in? In other words is there a config file in Wine that I can map drives? I want it to be able to look into into

Hello folks. I have a little question for you. First to the background. I have a windows program (command line based) that is able to run just fine in the wine environment. Now I want to run it on our linux HPC server (no multi-threading and so on is needed). There is no wine installed by default, and as I'm no admin I can't install it there. So is it possible to make wine run purely

Hi, I'm running bricscad V9 (CAD application) under wine-1.1.28. All installation and functionality is OK, but performance is really poor with respect to the same app. on the same machine under Windows XP. So I think it's wine's fault. I checked for performance issues on the www, but I found no help. I also noticed the claim that NO performance fall-off should be expected and this is

Hi, My distribution is Debian 5.0 "Lenny" stable. I?ve got Wine 1.0.1 and I?ve installed Warcraft III on it. If I try to connect to Battle.Net, it says, that it can?t connect and if I search for games in lan, I can?t find anything.

Having trouble with 1.2, tried to return to 1.0.1 (last stable acc. to the Wine page!) However, there`s... no link to it anywhere! Even in .deb repository there are any versions you could fancy- later and veen earlier - minus the stable. A rather strange idea... Where can I find 1.0.1 packages?!

Hello all, I have been trying to get MM6 to run with Wine and recieve an error relating when the system trys to load mss32.dll.

I would like to have wine's user directories in '/home/wine' but when I try to set the command ?wine WINEPREFIX=/home/wine ... it fails. I've tried it with other variations too but to no success. The directory is already created at '/home/wine' with root/user permissions, and I'm a member of the user group. Most of the information on the internet is either old or

Hi, This might be a stupid question; I checked the FAQ, but could not find a solution. In Wine Config, I have only two drives configured: C: is ~/.wine/drive_c D: is ~ Still, when I run winefile (or any other wine app), besides drives "C" and "D", there is a "/" drive, which is the root directory of my real file system. Why is it still there, even if I

I've seen a couple topics that deal with this error, but they're all really old and they didn't help, so I'll just create this. I'm trying to get audio to work. I just installed Ubuntu 10.04.

Immediately after running winetricks a month ago, several very important directories disappeared from my hard drive, and despite paying a lot of money to good data recovery company, I have not been able to recover them.

I found this wiki page (http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=2587) as well as few posts in these forums about this very issue that I am experiencing with DVD Decrypter on Wine 1.0.1 under Ubuntu/Intrepid. The wiki recommends adding the following to ~/.wine/config (which doesn't exist for me). I make a file called ~/,wine/config and inserted the below text but it

Is there an easy way I can disable a particular win32 app's ability to access the 'net with WINE such that it'll run, but without privs to use my 'net connection?
