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?!

Hi, I'm running bricscad V9 (CAD application) under wine-1.1.28.

error opening winecfg
I updated my distro from Fedora 10 to Fedora 11 yesterday. I did not update wine because the version it wants to use is 1.1.23 and I remember several posts of people having trouble with either .23 or .24. All of my games and office/work programs run fine through wine, but the wine cfg window will not start up. I get: ALSA lib seq_hw.c:457:(snd_seq_hw_open) open /dev/snd/seq failed: No such

WINE fails in directories with Question Marks in name
Is there a way to tell WINE that question marks in directory names are okay? WINE fails whenever I ask it to access a file from within a directory with a question mark in its name. Specifically, my HTPC marks all commercials using WINE and Comskip. Whenever the schedule includes a tv show with a question mark in its title, WINE fails. Here are the logs that illustrate the failure. Script log

Install and run Wine purely in/from the home folder
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

newbie question: why do I see root directory in wine, when no drive is configured?
Hi, This might be a stupid question; I checked the FAQ, but could not find a solution.

Why is it still there, even if I
