Hi all, I'm currently writing a simple script for a few friends to install a soft with wine. The point is wineserver is not in the path of my user. Should I call it directly from /usr/lib/wine ? Another wine bin is not found : wineboot ? Is it linked with my distro (Kubuntu/Debian based) ? Is it included in a lib I did not install ? Is it installed in further versions (I use 20041019,

I understand that it is applied automatically when needed, but there are times when one would want to run it manually. An example is when I want to literally create a new wine prefix such as env WINEPREFIX="/home/bamm/apps/myprog" wineprefixcreate to prepare a clean profile for future installation of myprog. I know that running setup with a WINEPREFIX would create the clean profile,

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, I?ve installed wine on Ubuntu 6.10 64bit using the following guide : http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=185557 but, when I type winecfg in Terminal I get the following error : exec: 29: /usr/bin/wine: not found Dunno if it may help, but here?s a terminal shot of when wine was getting installed. matt@ubuntu:~/Desktop$ dpkg -x lib libartsc0_1.3.2-3_amd64.deb

I am running Fedora 8 uname -r = 2.6.24.4-64.fc8 on my box with Wine 0.9.58. When I first installed it I noticed that my CPU usage jumped and stayed at 100% with wineserver taking > 85%. I killed the wineserver process and it dropped down, however it soon jumped back up when wineserver restarted itself. I then killed it again and all related processes and disabled it from starting as a damen

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.

I've decided to try out some games with wine 1.1.4 to see if there is improvements (mainly with Bioshock) and, as always, I first created a prefix for those tests. My first surprise was this message : Code: Note: wineprefixcreate is deprecated and shouldn't be needed anymore. WINEPREFIX creation and updates now happen automatically when needed. So I said : "it's

I keep getting prompted by wine that I need to reboot every time I try to install a program. I did a search and I believe my issue is that I need to use wineboot to simulate a windows restart. When I try to run the command wineboot I get an error that says wine: cannot find L"C:\\windows\\system32\\wineboot.exe" I've found a few posts on this, but no helpful answers yet. Is this

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

Hi everyone: I got a wine environment, and i need to run Ares and Internet Explorer together, but when i run Internet Explorer with Ares up, Internet Explorer stucks, but when i run alone, or with any other application (i test with ccleaner, ms word viewer, ms excel viewer) does not stuck.

Hello all, I have installed Wine on Opensuse 10.3 and it works great. I need it to use a historical research program where the utility is on the C:/ drive and the data on the D:/ drive. So, the program works on a very old Window 98 computer and in order to use it, the CD with data on it must be in the CD drive. I installed Wine, copied the all the files in /home/me/.wine/c_drive/windows/

Hello, I recently posted my experimental thoughts in the playonlinux forums, but I really want to open all possible channels to get feedback for the idea to deliver a complete (for the certain windows-app optimized) wine-structure, windows app and all nessassary wrapper scripts for processing the app in a deb. This would mean that every single application(-group) brings its own fitting

There might be wineboot performs actions that would normally be done I am not quite sure, but to translate it was not much meaning in the phrase to the word "preforms."
