Hi all. I know I posted a similar topic before, but I think it's necessary to re-formulate the problem since it has taken a different wider focus. I'm trying to make some of my Windows apps to work on Linux which used to work quite well with Wine back when I had openSUSE 11.1 last year. Right now I'm focusing in one called DBabble. Back in 11.1 I used Wine Doors to download libraries

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

Folks I have a macro that fails in Word, are there any work-arounds, alternate dlls etc that can be suggested to get it going? Is there any forum dedicated to getting these going? I've installed MSOffice like so: cd "/media/Office 2003 Pro/OFFICE";\ # Set your preferences WINEPREFIX=~/.MSOffice winecfg;\ # Click through the dialogues WINEPREFIX=~/.MSOffice winetricks wsh56 vb3run

Hi all, I created as little script to run wine and automatically log the output and some basic information to a file. It can be downloaded from here: http://www.mohag.net/wine_with_log How to use: 1. Download (or create) it somewhere and set it executable. wget http://www.mohag.net/wine_with_log chmod +x wine_with_log 2. Run application with wine_with_log rather than wine 3. Logs can be found

I trying play GTA San Andreas and it is returning " Cannot find 800x600x32 video mode". I worried so my wine Games pointed for a Working Directory that register a dosdevice instead of drive_c. Thereby I'm getting" /home/normal/.wine/dosdevices/c:/Program Files/Rockstar Games/GTA San Andreas" path and "win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),0,0x177f6dc,0x00000000), stub!"

I'm running wine 1.1.15 and quicken 2008 basic. My install was working fine for a several weeks including online banking. Then One day I launch quicken and a window opens titled "Special Offer for Quicken Customers" The program then crashes.

Hey guys, Can anyone help me close the gap between my POL and Wine setups? I currently have a laptop running PlayOnLinux 3.8.8 and a desktop running only Wine 1.3.9 (Fedora 14). As the subject read, the laptop with POL is running fine, but a generic install with the latest .msi file from the Steam website is not. Steam on Wine, was able to run it's own autoupdate, but after that refuses

I am trying to run Quicken 2006 on Wine through an SSH tunnel. Everything is working fine through logging in and starting, until I click on one of my accounts in Quicken. At that point, Quicken freezes completely. I am running this on a CentOS 6 x86_64 PC. This is the information I get through a terminal window: bash-4.1$ ssh -Y <<user>>@<<server>> env

I have set up the configurations and profiles for some of my programs so that I can use them across distros, and easily configure new installations with all my old settings. For instance, if I use Firefox in Fedora, add some bookmarks, then go to suse or Mandriva the new bookmarks are there, as is history, etc. Same for Thunderbird. To do this I copy the relevant folder from /home/user to my

Good Afternoon!!! I am using a wine 1.1.12 version and after a source code install I don't get run applications. In konsole I had "wineserver crashed, please enable coredumps (ulimit -c unlimited) and restart" during games running. But Driver Paralel game has a tester and it's showing 3d problems. I'm using a slack 12.1 and nvidia 7300 gt. Can someone help me???

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, after I updated to wine 1.5 and launched winecfg, it tried to download and install new version of gecko. I use wine built as wine-wow so it tried to install both 32 and 64 versions. But it failed in one of them, control.exe crashed. I then tried to install gecko from msi packages using msiexec, but the problem is msiexec is not aware of wow configuration. It installs both versions to the same

Hi, I've been doing a lot of testing in isolated WINEPREFIX environments. So, I'm constantly creating new .wine folders and having to run winecfg to set them up. Well, each time I do this, I have to watch the Wine Gecko Installer progress bar, and sometimes it can be slow (like if my internet connection is bogged up). I wish I could keep a local copy that WINE would pull instead of

Hi! I installed wine - version 1.2.2, and cs 1.6 no stream, on ubuntu 11.04, But when I start the counter-strike.bat, got the following error: CS>counter-strike.bat fixme:exec:SHELL_execute flags ignored: 0x00000100 Z:\home\battuske\.PlayOnLinux\wineprefix\CS\drive_c\Program Files\CS> fixme:ole:OleLoadPictureEx (0x93022c,774,1,{7bf80980-bf32-101a-8bbb-00aa00300cab},x=0,y=0,f=0,0x33f198),

It's marked "garbage" in the appdb, because the installer doesn't run without quite a bit of tweaking. But anyway ... I want to get MSN working in Wine. It's for my girlfriend's daughter, whose XP box just got trashed by a virus/rootkit (spread via MSN, of course). So we've saved her stuff and we're nuking and paving the box. I would like to use Ubuntu instead of

Can I use a wine command line argument (or anything other) to skip the `installing Gecko' dialogue? I find it only annoying as I install Gecko via winetricks when needed and I usually have a wine prefix for each windows program I use.

sorry, but im new to linux and wine, but i was reading the tutorial on how to install steam and the third step said: Install Gecko Engine by running -wine iexplore http://winehq.org- what dose it mean to "run" something? thanks for any replys -REIGN

Hi Folks I recently got back the message below form a company I suggested supporting WINE with their software. Is there any answer - or is it, as they suggest, a lost cause? The error I get from WINE is: RTG Bills (title) ADO error 1AD ActiveX component can't create object [OK](button) Is there anyway to have ActiveX & ADO work with WINE? Regards, Morgan. > No, RTG Bills won't
