[newbie] Running Wine

2002-02-10 Thread Charles Muller




Does anyone know the command to start up Wine (in this case, Codeweavers Wine)? I'm using LM 8.1 with Ximian-Gnome.

Hi Chuck,

To run a Windows application using WINE, be it Codeweavers or not, type:

wine /path/to/file.exe

I hope this helps.

Along these lines, running wine for me gives:

[paul@localhost paul]$ wine /mnt/win_c/windows/calc.exe 
fixme:keyboard:X11DRV_KEYBOARD_DetectLayout Your keyboard layout was not
found!
Using closest match instead (United States keyboard layout (phantom key
version)) for scancode mapping.
Please define your layout in windows/x11drv/keyboard.c and submit them
to us for inclusion into future Wine releases.
See documentation/keyboard for more information.

But, it doesn't start the program, it just stays like that for a long
time.  ANybody have similar issues?

  The trouble is, that you did not configure wine. You must have a file
  ~/.wine/config  that describes your preferences. (you can find an
  example in /etc/wine I guess, but you must have the config in your
  home directory to make it work ). As that config is not there, wine
  could not find how( c:\blablabla\starcraft etc ) it should name your starcraft 
folder.

 Just removed the wine and wine-devel MDK rpms. Went
to wine.dataparty.no and downloaded the latest cvs
rpm. Installed it. Just mentioned the drives in
wine.conf (as I will attach down). In X , opened the
konsole,

[root@zaburt /]# wine /mnt/hda1/windows/calc.exe
fixme:keyboard:X11DRV_KEYBOARD_DetectLayout Your
keyboard layout was not found!
Using closest match instead (Turkish keyboard layout)
for scancode mapping.
Please define your layout in windows/x11drv/keyboard.c
and submit them

See the Wine User Guide, chapter Keyboard for more
information.

and it ran normally. Why not try other programs ?

Just thought I'd add my experience with Wine. Be careful!

I used it to access my old Word for Windows 2.0c files using mdk version. 
Thank heavens I took their advice about copying the files to a separate 
directory - if you get an error, your files will be trashed. I mean trashed 
--- as in irrevocably!

Luckily for me, I had been planning to nix my window setup soon. After using 
Wine with Ventura 4.11, well --- bye-bye Windows. 

I've messed up my W98 config so badly its not worth repairing - not that W98 
was worth running in the first place!. (I must add that I knew I shouldn't 
have tried VPWin - even in windows it was troublesome).

So, if you want to be a total Linux convert -- maybe Wine's the best way to 
go?

More than likely if I had read more on Wine all would have worked well. But 
to my understanding, you're courting Windows' instability, no matter how you 
dress it up.
