similar to: Why can't one run Wine apps in Windows

I'm trying get a couple pieces of software we use at work so we can replace a bunch of aging Windows machines with Linux boxes, but I'm having a little trouble. I'll start with the potentially easiest problem first. One of the programs I'm trying to use is Lightspeed Virtual Terminal. It runs fairly well with just a couple of glitches. If I go to the directory it was installed

Everything was working fine, then after an update, it no longer works. I am using Fedora 7. I am unsure of the Wine version. Any of the Wine apps cause the screen to blank when I start them. I can press alt+f4 to close and get my Fedora desktop back. How do I get my Wine apps to work again? --Tony

Gentlefolk, I need to give someone the ability to create Windows-format text documents, which I can then copy (via SMB) to a W2000 machine for further processing. I've got the file-sharing up and running, and Wine installed and running Windows Notepad OK, but I've hit a snag trying to set it up to load Notepad automatically when the file-icon is clicked :- Environment - ubuntu 6.06,

I have two computers with wine installed. The first is a Fedora Core 6 with all updates running wine-0.9.25. The second is a RHEL4 with wine-0.9.27 compiled from source (./configure, make, make install). In both cases I have a dual-boot partition with a WindowsXP NTFS, and I can install and run ntfs-3g with no problem. In the first system, I can navigate to the location of NOTEPAD.EXE and invoke

It wouldn't load Synthasia, so I tried a couple other softwares, all wouldn't work. So then I tried running Notepad with Wine and it still didn't work! I don't know what's wrong. It's not giving me an error, it's just not doing anything at all.

Hi folks. My first post over here. While working on a music server optimzation (which ususally goes hand in hand with running pretty low buffers on realtime streams) I figured that certain HiRez flacs were causing XRUNS/hickups on my Linux server platform. The interesting thing is to run into XRUNS even though the stream gets send to a Squeezebox Touch which got a 20s buffer on its receiving

Hi, In a VoIP only environment, Asterisk has to use ztdummy to have any chance of playing back understandable audio files (without drops, hickups etc). I have been using ztdummy to some degree of success, but I also have a "Wildcard TDM400P REV E/F Board 1" in the Asterisk machine I'm using. I'm not using this card for anything at all, but I'm wondering how to set it

Thanks to everyone that responded to my channel bank question. Ive decided that the Adit 600 would be a good choice. Then I got to thinking about SIP phones and wondered if their quality has progressed to the point that they can be deployed to customers who "just want their phones to work" and wouldn't tolerate any SIP hickups. As for pricing, I would think the SIP phones would

Hi all, I''ve been playing around with Arel this week (actually outside of Rails) and found an issue with the clone implementation. I''ve added a patch and a testcase here: https://github.com/codders/arel/commit/660f706491ac012cb133554cffeaa6b9ae6046e9 and made a pull request against the rails/arel repo. I''ve also been playing around with support for ordering on

Hi all, I've got notepad.exe to work under wine (i think it's built in). I'm trying to get wordpad.exe to work now. It's currently in ~/driveC/Program Files/Accessories. Wine says it can't find wordpad.exe. Do i need to add an explicit path for it in wine config, or should the windows registry supply the path? Is it any use copying the original windows registry to wine?

Hi! I am trying to run CygWin, the Win32 version of gcc and friends, under wine. Why am I not running gcc directly? It's a long story. Anyway: I installed cygwin OK, but when I go to c:\cygwin\bin and do a 'wine bash.exe', something _seems_ to flash up on the screen and I am notified that Wine exited with a successful status. Is there a way to make bash stick around so that I

Hi all, i'm using wine under ArchLinux x86_64, i tested some versions (include the last, wine-1.4-rc5) and my problem is ever the same, i open any game and crash at start with this screen http://i.imgur.com/gpaYo.jpg The log when the app crash Code: err:menubuilder:init_xdg error looking up the desktop directory fixme:d3d_caps:wined3d_guess_card No card selector available for GL vendor 0x4

Hello, I have wine v1.1.10 installed from portage on a Gentoo x86_64 box running KDE 3.5.9 and Linux kernel 2.6.27-gentoo-r7. Wine built cleanly and the included apps (iexplore.exe, notepad.exe, explorer.exe, winhlp32.exe regedit.exe and even cmd.exe) all run fine. Networking works with no trouble in iexplore.exe. I am very impressed with this app. I tested multimedia by downloading and

Hello all, I'm performing some tests with Wine, since we have only one Windows server in our network, used for specific purposes. One of the services which I intend to migrate to Linux/Wine is called "SIAFI Gerencial", which runs EDM Client to update a local database from a remote database. Here's the deal. I've copied all EDM files to my desktop to perform the testing.

I'm running Wine 1.3.24 on Ubuntu 11.04 Please consider this .desktop file for Notepad application: Code: [Desktop Entry] Name=Notepad Exec=wine "/home/zetah/.wine/drive_c/windows/notepad.exe" %F Type=Application Terminal=false Categories=Wine MimeType=text/plain If I pass/drop text file on this notepad.desktop file, Notepad complains about error reading the file, as it

Whenever I try typing anything into any application, all I get is one character and then I cannot add any more or even delete it unless I exit out. When I load it back up the same thing happens. This problem also persists within the Wine configuration, I can only change one number in the window size box. I have tried the riched20 winetrick and I have uninstalled the program and reinstalled it

Definitely a noob here to linux (Eeebuntu / Ubuntu) and using Wine to access some of my items on the WinXP boot... I was looking around online and in the documentation but I didnt see anything relating to what I am experiencing, or at least didn't know how to ask the question... Basically when I am browsing my C: drive (NTFS partition) I see only 'Program Files' and 'Windows'

I'm trying to run the 32bit version of Groupwise. So far I can install it without any major hickups but when I actually start to run the Grpwise.exe it will prompt me to login to the groupwise mail server but bombs out with a debug xterm. It appears to be able to connect to the groupwise server ok for verifying the password. If I put in a bogus one it will tell me I have used the wrong
