Okay, I'm a complete newb... but I don't think this is the way things should be happening. I've installed Wine 1.0 (and uninstalled and tried 0.96... same problem) on Ubuntu 8.04 and I'm trying to install Dreamweaver 8. By all accounts, this should be a simple double-click on the exe, but nothing happens. Running the install from terminal results in: Code: wine: could not load

Hi, I installed Office 2007 under my account, but mostly it is my wife that needs to use it. I hadn't realized that installs apply only to the particular user account. Isn't there a way to install software such that wine can use it for any user on the system? I tried moving my .wine directory to /home/.wine and then symlinking ~/.wine, but that only works for me... if I try it under my

Hello, Currently I'm moving over to linux. I got fedora core 7, and I've been running it on a virtual machine. There is one piece of software I can't live without. It's called writeitnow: http://www.ravensheadservices.com/ Wine is installed on my box. When I run the application I get the following error message: "The Java(TM) VM could not be started. Please restart the

Hi all, I have two queries regarding WINE. 1) Is there support for VMS(OpenVMS) and MAC OS in WINE. I mean that can I install/build WINE over OpenVMS OS and MAC OS. 2) I have heard that WINE doesnot have support for WIN64 bit API's. Is this true that I cannot port WIN64 applications via WINE on Linux 64 bit. If this is possible for anyone among you then plz list the name of all the OS where

Will someone please make me a believer? I have just started using Linux. I have Ubuntu 7.10 and tried to install Wine so that I may play certain games. While trying to install, I got the following message... Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have requested an impossible

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13517 Is Wine going to have to lose even more experienced users over a stupid bug? Does WineHQ really value new users over those who have the knowledge and are willing to help? Let's move towards resolution on this and consolidate on Google Groups already, before it's too late. -- Paul Johnson baloo at ursine.ca -------------- next part

Trouble is if you split the list into newbies and non-newbies the people the other Alan despises so much won't think of themselves as newbies. As a relative newbie myself I find it hard to swallow some of the near-elitist attitude shown by some experts, calling someone who isn't as experienced as you a noob is just plain insulting. I hope when those people learn something new they

I'm making a request for comments in an effort to bring a minor but nagging bug to some kind of multilaterally-beneficial conclusion, and deliberately held off until after the 1.0 release in case this turns out to be a bigger deal than originally anticipated. http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13517 The first proposed suggestion is that a more consistent method for handling the

I have WINE in PCLOS2007. However, I cannot find out how to start it and how to load Windows programs into my Linux system. Would surely appreciate some help.

This may be a dumb one. For some reason I switched from Fedora 8 to Debian 4. In each case I was running Wine 0.9.58. Same machine with same geForce NV18 video chip. The Rise of Nations: Thrones & etc. demo worked (as I recall) under Fedora but does not run under Debian. The game tells me that the video card is not supported. I checked the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file and it seems to have IDed the

Okay, So i can install programs fine. But once i try to run them they just terminate themselves as soon as i start it. Any help is appreciated.
