I just downloaded the latest version of wine from the site to install on my system. My system is an Athalon XP 2400+ running Fedora Core 3, fully updated. I downloaded the file wine-20050419-1fc3winehq.athlon.rpm and installed it, then installed winetools-2.1.1-jo.i386.rpm to go with it. I started winetools to do the configuration and completed each step of the base install one at a time until

Hi, I am using wine-20050111 with Access 2000. When I start the Access application the switchboard (opening screen with buttons) is minimized. I can drag the window bigger and everything works fine. But when I maximize the switchboard with the window button, Access "hangs". In the console these messages are repeated every time: fixme:hook:NotifyWinEvent (32773,0x20078,159,0)-stub!

I'm very new to wine, like Saturday to be exact. Any way, I'm having difficulty with configuration. Is there a nice online guide that explains the config file. Further, I'm having trouble getting wine to tell installer programs that it is at least win98se, as a great many programs fail to install. I will RTFM if someone points me to it. Thanks, TMS III

Yesterday, I finally finished getting Internet Explorer installed. WineTools reports that DCOM98 and arial32.exe (fonts) are installed. But, when I try to run anything, I get an error message stating that the config file is invalid. And, it is. Now, it is totally empty. The last thing I did, as far as installing is concerned, was to run an installer for a tv station application taht shows news

I used the tool wine-config-sidenet from http://sidenet.ddo.jp/winetips/config.html which works great. I installed wine 20041201 as recommended and started wine-config-sidenet setup program and IE6 seemed to run great however, some URLs didn't work for example: www.arkia.co.il. Looking at the FAQ I noticed I should install dcom98.exe. When installing it I got windows popup stating:

hi all, I'm using the official wine-20041201-0.1 on Sue 9.1 (i386). I used winetools 2.10 to facilitate my wine installation and it was a godsand. I have installed Office 2000 and so far so good, but I like to extend my wine functionality just a bit more. I like to install Acrobat 5 (not reader) with PDFWriter on my wine installation.

Hi all, I've installed a program requiring the use of NVIDIA RIVA TNT2 Model 64/Model 64 Pro Display Driver. In spite of that, WineTools 2.0.8 and wine-20041201 did a great job in fully installing the program without pain, However, one critical component of the program needs the original NVIDIA driver so badly. How can I specify this driver in wine and/or Wintools, or elsewhere, when I have

Hi! Half an hour ago I installed wine-20041201 under Mandrake Linux 9.1, successfully I think. On my PC I also have a partition with Windows 98 in it, correctly mounted. I installed Wine with the main purpose of properly writing and reading documents in MS Word, since neither kword, nor Open Office kwrite nor even abiword achieve this purpose in a satisfaying way. Now, probably I haven't

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

When trying to install Microsoft Foundation Classes I find that winetools gets stuck on the mfc40.dll download. I can download mfc40.dll via my broswer, however. Where to stick this file, so that winetools can find it, and not need to download from dlldump.com? I'm on Ubuntu with the KDE desktop installed, if that matters. Thanks.
