Dear friends: I am pleased to say that I successfully installed Internet Explorer Sp1 on my Linux (Scientific Linux 4.0, which is based on RHEL 4) using Wintools. After installing IE6, I thought installing WordView (the Word97 word view program) would be a snap. But instead Wintools failed to install it in several attempts. It started, downloaded the file and tried to install it. But at

There was a time when I managed to get Office 2000 (or those parts of it I wanted) and Shockwave both installed in wine, using winetools. However, under later versions, that is not suitable. I am wondering if anyone has yet succeeded. My specific problems: Office installer: when I get to the part where I choose the required components, the icon to indicate the installation type selected for

I have achieved much of what I wanted to achieve using Wine, with one exception. I was hoping to be able to use Shockwave content, but despite installing Firefox and the Shockwave plugin, it does not work - it seems to stop after the promotional film before the actual requested content. I know there are "pay" solutions to this problem, but was wondering if anyone had found a free

I'm kind of a newbie on the whole Wine deal and I'm close to flipping out on this problem I have, maybe it's happened to someone else (who can share his/her wisdom): - Internet Explorer can't open new windows. Be it javascript, a popup, or even if you click on 'File -> New -> Window' and if you try, it hangs. So it's practically unusable to me since the corporate

Hi Ankush, The reason is very simple - you are booting into the CentOS SMP kernel which is the default. Wine doesnt work properly with the smp kernel. Just boot into the normal kernel (2.6.9-11.EL) and your problem will be solved. Cheers!

Very long story short... 1. Samba server on machine running iptables or behind a firewall 2. Client XP domain logins taking 45 seconds or more. 3. The problem: webDAV (webclient) is running on the XP workstations and this mysteriously triggers access to port 80 on the file server, which in turn adds up to long delays. If you are running an HTTP server and it isn't blocked then

This is the results of my attempts to install a working wine system on freebsd using winetools. I've downloaded the last wine from ports (0.9.3,1) and the last winetools .tar.gz (0.9joIII).

Dear friends: [Using the Centos 4.4 DVD) I will spend the next few days reading the documentation for Centos/RedHat. But meanwhile, I would like, while reading it, to listen to my favorite radio programs which require RealPlayer. So, my question is simply: should I download the RealPlayer RPM from www.real.com or should I download it from an rpm repository source? While I am at, what about

Firstly, I apologise for the blatant help me nature of this question but time is really against me and I wondered if any experienced Linux/Wine users would be able to give me some basic pointers from their own experiences.

Dear friends: I installed Sun's Java manually by downloading their Red Hat RPM. I followed instructions and the install came off fine (Done!), but when I try to play it, it won't work.

Dear friends: Using Centos 5. I have two physical drives. During install, I made sure to check hdb as well as hda. Both were listed as partitions (which is correct). But my fstab file does not show hdb. How do I make sure that hdb has been formatted and is part of my file system. If hdb is not formatted, how do I format it, please. Sorry for the question. I am a newbie. d[sher at localhost

Hi all, I'm having trouble getting Access 97 working with Wine 20041019. Word and Excel work just fine, as far as I've used them, but Access simply refuses to start. I've installed off an original installer CD through the WineTools ( 2.11jo) utility. I customised the install, removing everything except for the basic application files for Word, Excel and Access. I've also
