Hi Group, I have LM version 8.1 installed this last week and choose to install the wine package. However, I am unable to figure out how to get it working...
It seems that the fake windows directory structure is already in place for me at /var/lib/wine. I switched to su and copied an application to the wine directory (sol.exe from a Windows 98SE machine). Then, I switched back to my regular user and typed wine "c:\sol.exe". A lot of text was on the screen related to fonts. Then, the last failure was an exception error and that was it. Sorry for not producing a better report. I found the configuration file in my ~/.wine directory. But, I am a little confused as to if there is something already setup (or not). I mean is there an environment setting already associated with this file. Do I need to move it? I am pretty green when it comes to Linux after a couple of years vacation from it... Is there any How-Tos for setting up wine with the preconfigured Linux Mandrake install. Or, is there a better method in general. Thanks, Joe
