Sounds easy eh? I opened

I want to DELETE my current installation of CoPilot. When I try wine uninstall REMOVE, I get the message that the program is already installed. CoPilot does not provide an option to uninstall. I tried out of curiosity to RENAME the folder and reinstall an older version that may work better but still it would not let me install, so I renamed the folder back to its original name and CoPilot is

Normal user. The only change I've made to the logged in user since that user was created during kubuntu install was to add it to "disk" groups. So the steps I've made are: 1.

I have tried installing various GPS/topo map software suites on four Fedora machines under wine. On three of them, the install claims to succeed; the suite fails even to launch; I try to uninstall it; the uninstall either admits failure, or pretends to succeed while leaving the software still there and clickable (but, of course, not launchable). On one, I then ran a Fedora search (beagle, I

Installed a 30 day trial of Adobe Acrobat 7.0 and I'm now trying to "properly" uninstall. I run "uninstaller" and the program shows up in the list of installed programs.

Looking at: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=10591 What are the steps to install this application? Yes, it's a garbage application, but I'd like to at least give it a go. Looks like msiexec apparently isn't the right approach. Should that be through wcmd instead? thufir at ARRAKIS:~/.wine/drive_c$ thufir at ARRAKIS:~/.wine/drive_c$ msiexec

I am trying to play Rift. I just did a full install of openSUSE 11.4 (wanted to try something other than ubuntu). I added the WINE repo and installed it. I then installed Rift with the downloader with WINE instead of using my windows install. I used the winetricks that came with WINE and installed d3dx9 and vcrun2008. I launched Rift and patched it, but when I hit play I get a Bright flashing

The only problem is that all the .NET Framework entries (including the language packs) for all the versions
