Hey First of all, great project. Second, I was wondering if there is a program in the wine project, where it is possible to make different setups for the programs installed. Let me explain: I have Picasa installed, I also have C&C 3 installed, now C&C 3 I want to run in window mode and Picasa I don't want to run in window mode. Is it possible to make different setups for them? Or do

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

I have been trying to add a launcher to the gnome menu for some of my wine games, but I have found that when I add them to the menu the games complain about missing files, I assume because it is looking for the rest of the game files in the directory that the launcher is in. This doesn't happen when I run the same command within the games directory they work fine. I used to have this problem

Hey Rails, Prototype and Scriptaculous peoples. I love all three frameworks, my only concern is Prototypes lack of support in IE5.5 Is there really too much of the framework that IE5.5 can''t handle or is simply a design decision not to support it? I want to push web standards forward, but unfortunately there''s simply stil too many IE5.5 users to ignore. The incorrect box model

I want to test a game which comes with multiple cds so I created a new wineprefix, then set the drive in winecfg but I don't know how to make wine to load and recognize the others [Rolling Eyes]

howdy, i am very new to WINE and have looked around for some docs on howto get IE5.5 running, but can't seem to find anything straight foward. i just installed RH7.2, and am running Ximian GNOME, without a Windows partition. WINE is apparently installed by default with RH7.2. i tried the simple 'archnid' (solitaire) program and seemed to work ok. however, i have the IE5.5 executable,

Thanks for the reply! I tried the instructions on Frank's IE5.5 page, including copying all the files and directories to my ~/.wine/fake_windows/ directory (except jsnl.dll, which I could not find...) I do not know if dcom95 exists somewhere in one of the directories that I copied across, but I know that exactly the same thing happens when I try to run IE on the Windows partition (instead of

PowerPoint Viewer 1997 work nicely, but the installation for PowerPoint Viewer 2003 seems incomplete. It emits a number of fixme:msi warnings. It would be a nice wishlist item. Cheers, Shaun $ wine --version Wine 20041201 $ md5sum ppviewer.exe 1facc59a11680d1f828ed5118a0270b1 ppviewer.exe $ wine ppviewer.exe fixme:msi:MsiInstallProductW L"ppviewer.msi" L""

Is it possible to link in the WINE libs to my application so that I can just have the single executable? Thanks

I downloaded the .rpm file from Google and am trying to install Picasa for Linux on CentOS 5. I get the below error. Is this because I'm using SELinux or because of something else? I found a small Picasa folder in /opt (24 items, 143.7 KB) but it seems to end there. Picasa is one of the programs my wife uses on Windows. TIA!

Lots of 3D games such as Team Fortress 2, Audiosurf or Stalker have very low performance in comparison to running on the same computer on Windows. What can I do to improve it? What developers have still to implement to fully support 3D rendering?

Hi, I'm running a small business (http://www.microlinux.fr) offering various services around GNU/Linux, among which migrating folks from Windows to Linux. On server and desktops, I'm using CentOS exclusively. I know, Fedora would be more suitable, but I like the solidity of CentOS, and I can always build the odd missing bits myself from Fedora SRPMS.
