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

I have a question regarding moving Wine's C:/ drive to another file system. My hard drive is currently partitioned into 3 primaries. I have a NTFS partition that Windows is on, a Ext4 with Ubuntu, and a third, larger, FAT32 partition that I use to hold cross-OS data (music, pictures, documents ect). I have had infinite difficulty getting wine to run apps that I installed (through wine) to my

I would like to point Wine at my Linux temp directory instead of /home/username/.wine/drive_c/users/username/Temp. Is there a way to have the Wine environment variable specify a different location?

I'm trying get a couple pieces of software we use at work so we can replace a bunch of aging Windows machines with Linux boxes, but I'm having a little trouble. I'll start with the potentially easiest problem first. One of the programs I'm trying to use is Lightspeed Virtual Terminal. It runs fairly well with just a couple of glitches. If I go to the directory it was installed

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

An exe file that I want to run on linux made for windows comes up as a Trojan on VirusTotal - how would I run it without it affecting my system? Is there any way that I can run this program on my Linux system without possibly getting a virus? Other people have told me that it would affect your wine prefix located normally inside ~/.wine and that any program running inside a wine prefix has only

Hi, if you don't like to read the reason of the question, skip the blue part ;) i usually like to play older games with wine, and many of them are restricted to a screen resolution of SVGA or XGA ect. This looks of course incredibly bad on a Full HD Widescreen. Some of these games offer parameters or modes to play them in windowed mode (DiabloII, ...), some of them do only support the

By default Wine installs its fake-windows part into $HOME. I want rather have it on a separate partition, that I mount as /wine. How can I do this? What I have found was: http://wiki.jswindle.com/index.php/Advanced_Wine_User_Information#Changing_the_location_of_Wine.27s_installation My steps so far: - Installed Wine with Synaptic - # wineprefixcreate --prefix /wine - I find the fake directory

Well I've dabbled with Wine on and off for about a year and quite frankly, I've never gotten Wine to work... in fact I've never gotten Wine to do anything--I don't know why I bother, I guess because sometimes my head inflates, and I just need Wine to tell me that yes tehre are some htings in life I can't have. So I went here:

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

I am trying to run a home made Visual Basic 6 application on SUSE Linux Desktop 10, using "wine-1.1.18-2.1" Installation of VB 6 Application went smooth, and creates the directory under "/root/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/PrjPatientInfo". I then did the following # cd /root/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files # cd PrjPatientInfo # wine cmd C:\Program Files\PrjPatientInfo>

Hi, people! Because XO-1 has a little "disk" space, it will be nice if the location of drive_c can be moved to a SD card. Here in Uruguay, we do not have root permissions in our XO-1. We log in as user olpc an can change permissions only in some directories. And can create links to files but not hard links to directories. The SD card is mounted in /media/label_of_sd_card. I appreciate

Hi there! I've used Wine a couple of years ago when I used Ubuntu as OS. Nowadays I have a Mac and recently installed Wine on it. My question is, how do I fix so that I don't have to use the terminal to start an .exe program? Just enter a script in Applescript, save it as an application and start it through that? I've googled and found some scripts but none of them works for me.
