Ok, I was following a guide to install Office 2007 on Ubuntu 8.04 with Wine. I added exceptions (rpcrt4.dll and msxml.dll) as Native (Windows). After doing so wine broke, I can't even open winecfg to remove these exceptions. I've tried removing wine completely with Synaptic are reinstalling but nothing is helping, I currently have v 1.1.19 installed, it's still not working. when I use

I am a new user to Ubuntu and wine, and I need to copy some files from C:\WINDOWS\system32 to my ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32. Ubuntu is my sole OS. So my question... where in the world do I find the C:\ folder if Ubuntu does not sort directories that way? Also, is there something more than a FAQ, maybe a for-dummies part of the site I can look at to answer questions like this? I've had a

I posted this on Ubuntuforums but after reading a bit more it seems this is mostly used for gaming questions so I decided to come here. I am running 64 bit Ubuntu intrepid (still a beta but a release candidate). I can see Wine in my application menu but when I go to Programs/Acessories/Notepad nothing happens. I am unable to open the configuration nor am I able to uninstall using the Applications

I have recently switched to Ubuntu 8.04. And being a user that still needs the functionality of MS Office, I attempted to install Office 2007 by following the instructions @ http://samanathon.com/how-to-install-microsoft-office-2007-in-ubuntu-804/ And during the setup I fear that I have misinterpreted something as I now can't even get to the Wine configuration menu. I Have tried removing

Hello ppl In my wine usage experience, I got a patch from Lei Zhang, and i worked 100% in my app. When will this patch be included in a wine version ? patch refers to http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15543 another question, Sometimes powerbuilder application search for system32/drivers/etc/{hosts,services} files Can this be created when we execute winecfg ?

I'm use Gentoo and I've tried wine-1.1.4 as well as the latest version from git. No matter which wine command I try, the error is always just about the same: # winecfg err:heap:HEAP_GetPtr Invalid heap (nil)! err:heap:HEAP_GetPtr Invalid heap (nil)! err:module:attach_process_dlls "KERNEL32.dll" failed to initialize, aborting err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization

Metatrader 4 ( http://www.metaquotes.net/ ) do run in Wine but is not fully compatible ie not all function are working. I wish future Wine will enable Metatrader 4 to run properly. Another wish list is for Wine to incorporate a "File Explorer" that will show the "C:\" directory instead of having to work with the complicate Linux directory.

Hey all, Yesterday I compiled and installed 1.3.24, and after having done that I thought I'd give the new Age of Conan Unchained thingie a whirl, just to see if it worked. Long story short, it didn't. I was fairly sure the installer/patcher was doing its thing, because it was pulling some 8GB worth of data to my disk, but all the while it was doing it, all I got was a an empty window.

HI, When we run wine <program.exe>, it looks like wine by default tries to pick up files from drive_c\windows\system32. What do we do if the executable files are installed in a different location?. Wine cannot load it and fails. Is there a PATH variable or something we can set for WINE, just like we set in a OS? Cheers

i can't find some of the files and folders what should i do system32/driver/etc is missing

Hi, I am trying to run a game (Touhou 7) on a mac using wine. I installed wine using macports and used the command $ wine $th07e.exe to run my installer it then gives me this message: wine: cannot find L"C:\\windows\\system32\\.exe" I read elsewhere that i should type winecfg and create a fake c drive. But when I look in my drives menu, there is already one labeled c. Why can't

I am trying to install wine (1.3.24) from winehq for fedora and sketchup (8) on a Fedora-15 box. I have tried to follow the Sketchup Sage site http://sites.google.com/site/sketchupsage/problems/linux After installing Wine and Sketchup, I have ?Wine Files? under the new GNOME-3 Applications and when I open it I get what looks like a Windows window. No Sketchup in there. I have 2 Sketchup icons

Dear All Thanks for your comments. I have downloaded and installed wine-20040121. Unfortunately things seem to have worsened. I installed wine with my Windows partition mounted umask=000, and used the Windows partition for the wine installation when prompted (sorry can't remember the prompt question wording). I didn't install & run winesetuptk as everything seemed ready to

I'm a newbie, sorry in advance :p I have been searching here and reading threads and can't seem to find an answer, hence this post. I saw a nice example of what I am trying to do so I'll copy that format and perhaps it will illustrate better than I can explain. I'm using Ubuntu Hardy, 64bit. My only goal currently is to install the redist, using winetricks is the proper method

This is a MS Access problem I dont see in other posts. I have wine up and running and I now have it working with one other app, a spice cad program called scad3.exe. When I run it via wine I do get error messages, but since the program comes up and works fine any way I have been ignoring those errors. But I will list them here anyway, in case some expert can tell if they are relevant to my

Hi I've recently written some graphic application in windows. i've was successfull in running it under Linux using Wine. I had to add gdiplus.dll to the windows/system32 directory. now for my question.

Hi all I signed myself up as the appdb maintainer to TaxCalc about a year ago so I thought it about time I did something to try and get it to work. I know it does not work 'out of the box' so I was trying to use a few DLL overrides to pin down which native Wine libraries were causing difficulties (and so I can give some guidance on appdb). I have addeed taxcalc.exe in wine configuration
