I'm currently running Ubuntu 8.10. When I search for Wine in Synaptic it tells me I have version 1.1.14 installed, but on the about tab in the Wine config window it says I'm using 0.9.60. I'm left wondering who I am being lied to by. Any ideas?
In a terminal run: wine --version This should make things clear. Christoph Korn jmuffin schrieb:> I'm currently running Ubuntu 8.10.

Thanks! This tells me I am in fact using 0.9.60. I just went through the process of uninstalling and reinstalling wine today. Any idea why I am still using an old version? And also why Synaptic thinks I have the newest one installed?

First binary in the list is what you are using by default when run "wine". If you are using wrong binary then either remove all binaries you don't want to use or change order of paths in $PATH environment variable to use the binary you want. If you are simple user it is recommended to have only one version of Wine installed.
which -a wine showed me two paths, I deleted wine in usr/local/bin and now winecfg says I'm running the correct version and which -a wine only shows me the one path. It also gave me my alsa driver back in the audio tab so I can hear sound in portal again. Thanks for the quick responses and help.
