wine users - Dec 2008 - Problems on the menu when you install a software with wine

Good afternoon,

  I am a user of Ubuntu 8.04.1, and had to format my PC, before formatting when
installing software for XP as an example the WinRar using Wine was prepared this
way:
Applications>> Wine>> Programs>> WinRar>> WinRAR.exe,
currently it is no longer being possible, is being installed so
Applications>> Other>> WinRAR.exe, leaving everything disorganized.
  I would like some help to solve this problem.

Now appreciate and forgive my English.

Regards to all

I can also confirm this as i have the same problem.
Fresh, fully updated Ubuntu 8.10 and wine 1.1.10
Any help appreciated.

of course!!!  [Wink]

Of, my other-menu was hidden  [Laughing] 
So, i got the same problem like the others, but the patch still didnt changed
anything.

New Wine fixed this for me

@The_Dark_Lord: so you had the problem in wine1.1.10? then when u updated to
1.1.11 it fixed the problem? i.e. the menu just appeared?

@Andr? H.: how did you apply the patch? I dont quite know how to use the
attachment.bin. I opened up the file in gedit and the code seems incomplete? the
last line was a "else"

So do I need to uninstall everything and reinstall as wine1.1.11?

Thanks!

Wine 1.1.11 didnt fix it for me.

@Aimevous, yer it was wine1.1.10, then i used ubuntu update feature to update
wine to 1.1.11, then reinstalled the windows programmes and it all works like it
should now

@Andr? H. did you try reinstalling the windows programmes after upgrading?

sure! i know it only can make a difference when you reinstall it, so i did.
