Hi, I'm still a bit new to Linux and Wine, so please bear with me if this is a stupid question. I've been putting all my windows applications in their own wineprefixes, and now I thought I'd put some of them in my data partition, because there's always lots of free space there and many of my games take a lot of space. But when I try to create a new wineprefix on my data

Some small utilities that I sometimes run are often distributed as a .ZIP file containing the application and any DLL's that it depends on. Windows has a behavior where if a DLL is located in the same directory as an application, windows preferentially chooses the DLL's in that directory over the same DLL that appears in C:\Windows\system32 Wine doesn't seem to behave this way (at

Hello, I am looking for a way to create an individual wine rpm of the actual src.rpm. My goal is a new winepfrefix, that is created when a user is logging in, that contains additional win-programs. But I did not find the path in the wine...tar.gz file, where the wineprefix is located. can someone help me? Is this even possible? Because that would be an easy way to supply a programm for all users

What may cause this error? I'm trying to run Armored Brigade, which was working perfectly until I upgraded Wine from 1.2.3. to 1.3.24. I can't get sound to work in that game under that version of Wine. I have OSS V4 When I downgrade to 1.2.3. I can't run that game any more as I'm getting a segmentation fault error at start. I have tried uninstalling wine and removing the .wine

Hi, How can I use wineprefix option?

hi there. I hope this is the right place for asking this. After reading through the information about WINEPREFIX in the FAQ and the User Manual, I've still got some questions left: I (hypotetically) want to create a new clean wine-environment, install the winetricks d3dx9 package into it, and then run three applications in it. Would the following commands be the right way to do it? Code:

Hi All, I am getting: > wine: cannot find L"C:\\windows\\system32\\wineboot.exe" > err:process:start_wineboot failed to start wineboot, err 2 And am being told to: > Use a _clean_ WINEPREFIX for installation. And, also being told to ask you guys what the above means. Many thanks, -T

I wanted to ask to the wine experts something about WINEPREFIX or the crossover bottles... how does the concept of "bottles" compares/differs with the concept of application virtualization (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Application_Virtualization) used by VMware's Thinstall (http://www.thinstall.com/products/virtualization_suite.php) (aside for the .exe container*) and

Age of Conan went free-to-play (sort of) recently, and I thought I'd give it a look. The AppDB entry and a search of bugs seems to indicate that it should mostly work except for some texture problems, but I can't seem to get past the installation. Configuration: * Mac OS X 10.6.7 * Wine 1.3.23 * Age of Conan web installer Process: * Created fresh WINEPREFIX by: "wine notepad"

I'm trying to run different win32 apps with different configs. i was looking thru the man page and found the WINEPREFIX. i added export WINEPREFIX=$HOME/.wine.icad to my script that i use to launch my application. It seems to find it, but now i'm getting: $ icad wineserver: mkdir /.wine.icad/wineserver-atlanta.ga : No such file or directory ok, i obviously did not understand something.

Hi! I have difficulties using WineTools 2.1.0 with WINEPREFIX set. It does not matter whether use wineprefixcreate or not. I want to start a new wine-Konfiguration from scratch: export WINEPREFIX=$HOME/.wine wineprefixcreate (or not) wt > /tmp/Fehlermeldungen.wt 2>&1 When I try "Create a fake windows drive", WineTools doesn't create one although it said it did! I have

How do I run games with WINEPREFIX? I've looked up the site and done the whole WINEPREFIX=~/.wine-game and installed it but after that how do I run the game? when I run it it says wine cannot find the file.

I have seen posts regarding WINEPREFIX so that Windows programs can be installed elsewhere than in the default .wine/drive_c/... folder. I have 2 or 3 Windows programs in the default folders which I run under Wine, and another program (Serif PagePlus 11) also in the default folder that does not run and I want to uninstall. Wine uninstall does not work for this program. I gather I can uninstall by

Hello everybody, i got a question. Could it be possible to use an existing real windows 7 installation (on a separate partition) as a wineprefix and run programs from it?

I have been told that the way to utilize the somewhat strange way my Ubuntu is set up is to use the WINEPREFIX. I have some windoze programs that need to know about each other so they need to be in the same drive_c Here are pertinent specifics of my system: > > root at kayve-laptop:/media/2c512d2e-fcf5-4ef5-8200-e3c79a8a1aca/home/kayve# mount | grep ext4 > /dev/sda6 on / type ext4

Hi, there I recently purchased a copy of bordeaux in order to try the dib engine (and pulse) in wine1.2 I would like to use this in already installed bottles. So I tried something like this: code: [export WINEDIB=ON] then (as an example) code:[/opt/bordeaux/bin/wine | env WINEPREFIX=~/.wine-test wine winecfg] This does create a wine bottle, but in this way the dib engine doesn't get loaded

Hi list, I intend to package a few games of mine using Debian packages for easy installation and would like some tips on how to do it properly. I thought of creating packages that depends on wine and to create a wineprefix for each game somewhere in /usr or /var mostly because different games want it's own settings and to control them separately. But this way I don't think updates of

I have a dilemma. When freshly installing game (i usually used wineprefixcreate, but now I just use WINEPREFIX when installing) I want certain settings to be used when starting wine. Now I have to click-click through my winecfg to make them right every time I install new game or software. Most notable edits are Sound, Drives and Desktop integration (where the personal folders are configured).
