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

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? -Paul Rodríguez On Fri, 2001-10-26 at 15:35, Onur Kucuk wrote: JT Hallo!

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. Onur Kucuk _ Do You Yahoo!?

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).

I had to swerve a number of times before I hit him 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.
