I am new to fedora and installed wine to see if I could get the sony reader software working (required to access sony bookstore from my sony ereader). Well the program did not work though it did create icons on my desktop. wine kept crashing and I said lets just get rid of it. I uninstalled wine via yum remove and nothing appeared to happen so I did rpm -qa |grep wine and saw lots of stuff. So I simply did yum remove wine* and then a rpm -qa |grep wine was empty. however wine is still under applications on my desktop and still has a category for programs--reader. I should also mention that while wine was installed I attempted to remove the reader via the wine uninstalller but a) wine gave a message of a core crash and b) all the uninstaller did was give me the option to reinstall the reader program. so now when I attempt to open an epub it tries with the sony reader software. I know I can just right click to use another program but for now I want wine gone completely from my pc and the sony program gone.

View 2 Replies View Relatedwhile trying to get a game to work on wine I was surprised to find out that the wine version that ships with sid is 1.0.1 released in October 2005. So I installed the latest release I found at [URL] like this :
dpkg -i wine_1.1.42~winehq1-1_amd64.deb
The install failed, I think because I hadn't remove the old wine version, and that's when the joy-ride started. Impossible to remove wine to restart properly. (apt-get remove libwine wine and apt-get -f install didn't) After some googling I tried this :
dpkg -i --force-depends wine_1.1.42~winehq1-1_amd64.deb
This did install the wine version I wanted, and the game ran fine after that. However the result was a borked apt-get. Tried to remove wine again with the above commands, resulting in apt-get failing to do so because it tried installing wine-unstable and reported errors similar to these : E: Could not perform immediate configuration on 'wine-unstable'. see man 5 apt.conf under APT::Immediate-Configure for details.

View 2 Replies View RelatedLot of questions about WINE... When I'm done I'm going to make a HOWTO so that others can do what I did It's hard work, but I'm nearly done.The last problem I'm having is the WINE menu on GNOME won't show up after a install of WINE from a .deb package (it usually does). This was after I compiled WINE from source and removed it with "make uninstall" and "rm -rf /.wine".So now I installed the WINE from a deb package and the Wine menu entry is not showing up.I've tried re-installing Wine and rebooting my PC but nothing seems to work.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a problem running a game on a fresh Slackware64 install.
Slack version is 13.37
I've followed alien bobs instructions for a multilib environment from here:[url]
And then used sbopkg to download and compile wine version 1.2.2, which went through just fine.
After that I grabbed cabextract from sbopkg and ran this: wget [url] sh winetricks d3dx9 To get the DX9.
But, when I try to run the game, this is the error I get:
Code:
The game it self ran perfectly on the 32 bit version of Slackware, tested with 13.0. So now I think I'm missing some libs or something, but I have no clue which.
I don't know if it's just my system, but after applying the latest Wine update, the mouse cursor in Wine windows is now purple/magenta/pink, whatever. Not a big problem, just annoying. I've looked through the various config files in ~home and /usr/share/wine, and can't find any parameter that might even remotely address this.

Im running Fedora 13 x86_64, I used to run the 32bits version, but I decided to get all I can from my 64bit procesor. Anyways, I have to run some aplications on Wine, like Microchip MPLAB software, for programing PICS, it used to workk perfectly fine on my 32 bits version, but ever since I installed the 64bits version, I can't get anything to work. Of course there are alternatives, but my coworkers use Windows, and MPLAb, alternatives have quite similar, but yet diferent sintaxis, so I kinda need to solve this, otherwise, I will have to migrate back to the 32bits version. I tryied o install some clumsy soft, but still, wine can't initialize anything. I tryied to install lots of libraries, but problably Im missing something.

I'm using Fedora 10, and I have a problem using WINE and derivatives (e.g. crossover)
When installing wine and trying to use any program via WINE I get no network connection whatsoever, no matter which program I try to use. I also tried reinstalling said programs and reinstalling wine, but nothing helped. Can anyone tell me what might be the problem there?
I've just migrated to Fedora after 2 years of Ubuntu, and I'm rather happy with it, except for one problem left. When I launch a windows program through wine (I've only tried games yet), it won't go fullscreen. I tried everything I fond on the internet: disabling compiz, enabling/disabling virtual desktop, but no matter what, my game is still on a tiny window. I tried switching my resolution to the one of the game, it doesn't change anything. And pressing alt+Enter doesn't change anything either, except sometimes crashing the game. The 32 bits libraries for xorg-nvidia are installed, and I don't see what could cause this problem.

now what to do?
I only use it to run a program off of CD, not an installed application. This same program ran fine with wine under Fedora 10 & 11, but not on Fedora 12. I installed wine with:
Code: yum install wine as root. When I try to execute the program, it shows the little bouncing wine icon and all, but then wine disappears. Also, when I looked at the wine configuration, the configuration program crashed/hung. I had to kill it via the System Monitor. I'm on a KDE desktop with hardware acceleration, and Fedora 12 x86_64.
I just installed Fedora 12 86_64, and Wine won't run any software that I attempt to install. It just says opening file, and after a few seconds disappears. The same software that I was running in Wine f10 is not running in 12.

Also, if im running a x64 system, why are most of the packages listed i686?
iam an old linux user (debian,suse and ubuntu) and i installed now fedora on my box to learn something new about other distros. fedora 12 is realy nice, but i got some questions about some things.
-> why i can not find a newer wine version 1.1.37 in the standard repos (i marked already all repos in the "add-remove software" tool, but not the testing one for fedora13)can somebody tell me where i find an actual repos for the newest wine package?
At some point my wine install died. I haven't used it a lot and I update my Fedora 11 regularly so I'm not sure what made it break. I thought "ok, just see if there's an updated version". 'yum info wine' says there is an update version and the file is 27k in size. Tried installing and no joy. Tried erasing wine and then installing; no joy. Yum says that the X86-64 and the i686 version are both 27k in size. I know for sure that is wrong. On a semi-nonFedora note, I tried compiling my own version of wine. It compiled fine after installing some dependencies and '-devel' files, but it gets the same crash as the Fedora version was getting.
