-Wine cannot be used for .Net.
-Do not want to install Windows for the purpose.
-Do not want to use Mono.
The option I am left with is installing a Virtual machine on Linux and then installing Windows on it and then installing .Net !
-Is this feasible ?
-Will I be able to save the data created on Virtual Machine ?
-While connecting to internet through the Virtual Machine does underlying OS play a role there ?
Lot 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.
when I tried to install wine I got "Missing Dependency: wine-gecko is needed by package wine"so I looked for wine-gecko and download it but also when I tried to install it I got "Missing Dependency: wine-gecko is needed by package wine"it seems that I am in loop each package need the other what to do please?
while 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 :
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.

How can I uninstall / purge wine and any wine installed windows programs?I've tried deleting .wine (hidden folder)but in /usr/bin/ there are a number of wine related files.And wine sub menu still appears in Applications menu
maybe my questions sounds funny: i'm looking for a very small (or better as small as necessary) distro which runs in a virtual box an starts wine.The reason is: we have new laptops in my school runnig windows7 64bit home and we have some software which runs only on WinXP. So why not take a virtualbox wich runs wine to start the old Software?
I 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.
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.
I want to set up a "global" wine directory, so both me and my girlfriend can play games on each others' accounts. Right now, I have wine set up so it can run in my account, but she has to log out and log into my account each time she wants to play a game which is far from ideal.So, what I did was set up a "global" homeuser group for all user accounts on the system. Then, I moved my ~/.wine folder to /home/wine, and did chown :homeuser /home -R Then I made a symlink to the /home/wine directory at ~/.wine and did the same for my GF's home directory. It works fine in my account, BUT if I change to my GF's account, I try to run wine and it says"/home/xxxx/.wine not owned by you"
I was installing a game on my netbook with wine and it seems that it's using both of the cpu threads.
Did wine fix the multi-thread bug?
EDIT:
Sorry to get anyones hopes up, but I did later find that I was misreading some data. When I saw it say 100% cpu usage I thought it meant both threads, but I later found out that it only applied to one thread.

I have found sometimes that programs won't install in wine, but when i run setup as root, they will install just fine. I do not use them this way because I do not trust wine running as root on my system.
For purposes like compiling GCC from source and being able to do a "profiledbootstrap", I need to be able to use the stage1 compiler (Windows executable) on from Linux. What would be ideal: some setting/command that lets me do gcc.exe from bash and have it work (load WINE automatically). What would be less than ideal but equally fine: tell the GCC build system to call the bootstrap compilers through WINE (ie prepend "wine " to all call to win32 applications).
I will buy a new computer and install Kubuntu on it.The only kind of software that I would run on Windows are PC games. Can I play most of Windows games without problems with Wine on Linux?If Wine cannot run games, how much of disk partition is recommended to install Windows and PC games? Can Windows read ext4 partitions?
There's a deadware Windows application thatuse daily because there's simply no alternative, and I read that it runs OK on Linux through the Wine layer.I was wondering if someone owns one of those ultra mobile PC's with a QWERTY keyboard like the PsiXpda or Sharp NetWalker PC-Z1, or even eBook readers like the Amazon Kindle, and could tell me if they run Wine with good-enough performance?
1. In windows, you can create batch files. I know Shell files are the equivalent of that in linux, but how do i create one?I tried creating a text document, typing echo Test, and saving it as .shell but it came up with a empty terminal.
2.How do i add the Right Click> Open With WINE, like there was in Ubuntu. I currently have to go through terminal and type Wine ProgramName, which i am fine with, but I want shortcuts (reason for asking about batches)
3. Finally, how do i add programs to the KDE Menu? I made a custom menu, but when i try and send a program to it, it works unless its a windows executable, which what i'm using is, how can i still add it? The Program is Brutus AE2, and i want to add it the KDE with the command "Wine" so when you click it it launches a terminal, enters Wine BrutusA2.exe and runs?
I installed it a while ago but haven't bothered to use it much, and before I installed Kubuntu and had Ubuntu, it worked fine, I could use Notepad and browse the C:... But, now when I go to "Browse C:" it says "Unable to run the command specified. The file or folder file:///home/theif519/Documents/.wine/dosdevices/c: does not exist." What do I do? I tried reinstalling Wine but that didn't do any good. Do I manually make the directory?
How do i open .exe files using wine? I've tried right clicking it & opening it in a erminal but when i do this it saysProcess of pid=0015 has terminatedNo process loaded, cannot execute 'echo Modules:'Cannot get info on module while no process is loadedNo process loaded, cannot execute 'echo Threads:'
process tid prio (all id:s are in hex) 0000000d 0000000f 0
