similar to: Alexandre says "let the newbies run as root"

But I don't want to run it as root. When running as user I get the error message. Whether I use yast, yum or su and then exiting su before starting the it's the same. And now I get told that I am running as root [Rolling Eyes] I guess I will have to wait for Suse 11. I do not want to change settings to please a software because I can never be sure that it won't mess with the rest (do

Hi! We will start on writing an automated install script for Trados on spare time, Friday next week. Up to then I have to prepared the script *in a way that a developer will understand what I want* and being responsible for testing it under Linux. Basically it will be an automated script which will be timed, i.e. if no install_ok after 20 min, it would be hanging somewhere and will abort and

Alexandre says we should have users try wineprefixcreate before having them blow away their old .wine directory. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Alexandre Julliard <julliard at winehq.org> Date: Mon, Mar 31, 2008 at 2:44 AM Subject: Re: Proposal: versioning .wine directory To: James Hawkins <truiken at gmail.com> Cc: Austin English <austinenglish at gmail.com>,

In the course of the installation of trados, I have the runtime of the installshield ISProbe.tlb failing with error 2 (not found), although it's correctly there as well as dao2535.tlb of microsoft shared (not there but I could get it from the XP installation). Questions are: Why is the first seen as not found although it's there - is this a registry problem? Are these files important

Howdy Wine users! Looking for an easy way to help Wine? There are plenty of bug reports that could use a retest in current Wine, but developers are busy fixing bugs :-). Here's a list of bugs (536) that have a download available, but haven't been checked on in the last 6 months. If you'd got time and bandwidth to kill, and want to help Wine, please test them. After testing, leave a

It has been suggested that the wine-users list is now too busy, and needs to be split into two: one for experienced users, and one for beginners. However, this might leave the beginners adrift without any experienced people to help them. So I don't think we should do it unless at least a handful of experienced users are willing to join the new group and lend a hand. I'm willing, but I

Can wine only be installed on a linux platform or is there a way to download it and run it on windows xp?

For complex reasons, I need to run Wine on RedHat 7.2 (which dates from about 2001, kernel 2.4.7). The wine that shipped on 7.2 is pretty much unusable (for me); I have issues with keyboard input and fonts, the Windows app doesn't run, it uses the old-style config file, and so on. I figured that installing a more recent binary RPM would lead to all sorts of dependency problems, and I need

Hi! How I am seeing it, the cat is biting the tail. Translators are not to technical savy and most of them will never be able to debug anything. They will not be using Wine until the software is really working on it and Mac users are not bothered, they use parallel. I could start a list with the translators I know are using Linux and just dual booting for Trados. Now to get some votes, I would

I have no trouble to install fusion.dll regsvr fusion.dll will however only work if msvcrt70.dll is in the system32. vcrun2005 is installing properly. However it is not passing the check of the Installshield (i.e. something is not fully/correctly registered). doing the Winetrick before starting the Installshield is not changing a thing. To write a script I would have to learn programming and

I am attempting to create a folder for my wineprefixes on my external hard disk. The plan is to symlink to that location from inside my user folder (ie. ~/.wine/PREFIXES -> $iomega/.wineprefixes) For reference: $iomega=/media/Iomega_HDD This is a 400GB external drive with a single NTFS partition. The plan is to create folders for all my WINEPREFIXes at $iomega/.wineprefixes (Example:

Hi All, I am trying to convert a customer over to Linux workstation, instead of upgrading to Windows 7. One last program to go. I can not get Access 2003 to work with CentOS 5.4's Wine 1.0.1. I am set to upgrade his test workstation to Fedora 12 and the latest Wine in a month or so. (Access 2003 crashed when you try to open a database.) Does anyone know if Access 2003 works in the latest

My www directory is owned by "apache" and the group is "todd" and the permissions are 775. My Windows computers use Samba and they log into Linux with "todd". Under the www directory there are various directories which may have a group belonging to a user e.g. "viewpoint". Using this example, there is a directory under www (acutally called httpd),
