OK I got it...

Usage: wine PROGRAM [ARGUMENTS...] Run the specified program
wine --help Display this help and exit
wine --version Output version information and exit
Is this good?

O I did make that mistake :oops: .

And thanks for K3b.

aargh...I haven't used wine much...I think you can run winecfg to configure wine with various options. But the simplest way to check that it's working OK is just download some simple freeware program, like a small game or something, extract it somewhere, then right-click on the .exe file & set the run action to wine "$@", then, when you click on it, hopefully it will work. If not, run it from the commandline as:

Code: Select all

wine program_name.exe
and see if any meaningfull errors are generated.

Hi tried Super Tux only adjusted the screen position and didn't start.
It also removed the Wine config tool.

I got it from source forge so I don't know what the F.
I think that it needs something els.

I don't get that upset because the best version of Wine was built for a different Distro that the new toll you all helped me with should install it fine.

If I am incorrect about that give me a haler.

I also found this to be...
These dependencies required by wine-0.9.60 package are missing:
File /usr/lib/wine/gphoto2.ds.so has these missing library files:
libgphoto2.so.2 libgphoto2_port.so.0
File /usr/lib/wine/wineesd.drv.so has these missing library files:
libesd.so.0

Follow the same procedure that you just used:
Just remember that at that site, libxxx.so & libxxx.so.0 are probably just symlinks to the real file, so you need to download the real file, then create the symlinks.
