I've been able to run WoW fine until the last update (1.1.32) on my FC11 x86_64 installation. I now get this: Code: wine: '/home/paul/.wine' is a 32-bit prefix, it cannot be used with wow64 Wine. Code: $ uname -r 2.6.30.9-90.fc11.x86_64 $ wine --version wine-1.1.32 I gather a prefix is a virtual instance of windows, and it seems where I have my WOW installed in a 32 bit flavour, but Wine is trying to use some piece of code called wow64 to run it. What do I do? Convert my prefix to 64 bit somehow? Thanks, Mud[/code]
actually anything I try to run under wine now returns the exact same error..

If so did you check to be sure it marked the 32 bit version and not the 64 bit version for install? I messed that up once and add/remove software was kind enough to give me both versions. Played merry hell with stuff until I got the 64bit version removed.

ok so i've uninstalled wine.x86_64 and all the dependencies.x86_64 and installed the i586 version. Somehow during the process I seem to have got my default wine prefix set to 64 bit, so I'm now getting this: Code: wine: '/home/paul/.wine' is a 64-bit prefix, it cannot be used with 32-bit Wine. How do I change my .wine prefix back to 32 bit? Do I create a new one (how?) and just copy the file across? Thanks, Mud
