Our school is setting up a Linux computer lab for students to use. We have Kinetic Books and would like to run it on these computers. The software is java-based. Is it possible to run it under Wine? Are there any general rules-of-thumb for which programs are Wine-compatible?
View 3 RepliesI 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 need to run 32 bit java on my 64 bit PC. I don't want to make the 32 bit java my default. Can I do it??

View 5 Replies View RelatedMy current setup is:
* Dual GTS 250 video cards
* 3 Monitors
* Used nvidia-settings to run each monitor as a separate x session
* This is all running on Linux Mint Debian Edition
When running games (Starcraft II) in Wine via PlayOnLinux, I've found that the mouse does not get locked. I already tried various solutions littered across the web and none work so I'd rather just disable my other two monitors while playing. Does anyone know of a method where I can turn off my other two monitors (not my primary monitor) while running Wine and then turn then back on afterwards? I don't mind having to manually run a script before and after gaming.
This is the output of my xrandr for each of my monitors (I get a different xrandr depending on which X session (i.e. monitor) I try xrandr on):
Primary Monitor
xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 175, current 1920 x 1080, maximum 1920 x 1080
default connected 1920x1080+0+0 0mm x 0mm .....
Second Monitor
xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
Screen 1: minimum 320 x 240, current 1280 x 1024, maximum 1280 x 1024
default connected 1280x1024+0+0 0mm x 0mm .....
Third Monitor
xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
Screen 2: minimum 320 x 175, current 1280 x 1024, maximum 1280 x 1024
default connected 1280x1024+0+0 0mm x 0mm .....
I could not figure out from the above outputs what I should be using for the --output flag. I assumed it was default and tried the following:
~ $ xrandr --output default --off
xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
But as you can see, it didn't work. Additionally, since all three xrandr outputs list the monitor as default, I wouldn't know how to turn my other monitors back on afterwards (if the command did work). Do you know what might be wrong in my nvidia-settings or what else I could try?
I have 32 gigabytes of my hard drive wasted with a vistool installation a flaky don't look at me wrong or I will brake and you will have to reinstall me stinking winbloze
simple I want to fly my radio controlled helicopter and both programs that configure the radio transmitter so it talks sense to the model are windoze only almost (the wrong driver for the interface cable came with it the driver crashed and scrambled the configuration of the transmitter) the lesson here is XP drivers DO NOT! work with Vis-Stool
One of them will run on .NET (for windoze) and wine (I have no idea of how to install .net for linux ) it just dose not talk to the interface cable witch has a linux kernel module and connects the cable to /dev/ttyUSB0
Is there a way to make /dev/ttyUSB0 show up as a COM4 in wine.
How can I disable Internet access for programs running in Wine?
View 3 Replies View Relatedregarding user permissions:
I have user A who owns a .jar file
I have user B. who needs to run the .jar file
I have Java which is owned by root.
I would like to work out whether/how user B can run the .jar file, in Java, with the permissions of user A. As I understand it, a running process in Linux typically takes the permissions of the user who executes it. However, the way I'd like to configure user B, the permissions I want them to have wouldn't be sufficient for the process to successfully run.I know you can also set a process to take the permissions of the owner of that process, but in this case the actual... executing process would be Java, which runs the .jar file, and I def. don't need this, let alone every single instance of Java on my server, to execute with root priviledges. So like I said, basically I am trying to work out how to let user B run this specific process with the process elevated to this set of priviledges which user B otherwise does not have.
I recently started running a Minecraft server for myself and some friends and am running it via Linux. I'd like to set things up so that a friend of mine can, as needed, telnet into the server and restart Minecraft as needed, as well as a couple of other things, without giving this friend the same access rights I've given myself to the same files. The minecraft server process runs in a screen, and I've worked out where screen can be set up so multiple users can get into it. However, if I'm running minecraft under my own user name, then that seems like it will just end up letting my friend, from his account, screen into my own account. SO the brilliant idea I had was, what if I had one user account which only existed to run the server, which both me and my friend could screen into as needed, which wouldn't have any more rights to anything than my friend has with the exception of being able to execute this one .jar in Java.

View 5 Replies View RelatedThere are some apps for win that run on wine just with an ordinary install procedure. There are others that will never work at all. But there are also some that wine users claim to have made run by changing some specific configuration of wine, using some trick or even creating scripts on playonlinux.
So if I try to run an app on wine and it doesn't and I don't find any user documentation about some specific trick or config for that app what adjustments can I do to try to make it run? I mean, it's tiring and perhaps foolish to spend hours playing with every possible config in wine frontend without knowing what I'm doing. So what can I do to find out what libraries, configs, tricks or scripts are needeed to make an app run under wine if it didn't at the first try?
I've downloaded and installed WINE, works well with most windows programs I run. I recently downloaded a program called METT (micro expression training tool), and apparently it needs a disc to be ran. Well, I installed KISO and mounted the image there, but I still can't get it to run.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI would like some help to run sql queries in Ubuntu. For a school IT project, we must write a Java program that runs queries. Seeing that I'm going away on holiday and will be away from my Win7 desktop, I will have to work on my Ubuntu laptop. When I run my program, I get these two sql exceptions:
Code:
sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver
No suitable driver found for jdbc:odbc:ITPAT2010
Note: it is not my program that is causing the problem, since it works fine on Win7. But here's my code anyway:
Code:
void OpenDB()
{
System.out.println("INTO BRIDGE");
String url = "jdbc:odbc:ITPAT2010"; //JOU BRUG SE NAAM
[code]....
I believe the drivers that handles the connection to the database aren't installed. The format of my database is: *.accdb (was created on Win7 using Office 2010). I can't open this file, probably because I have no database programs installed?

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.

View 9 Replies View RelatedFirst post, and I apologize if it's already been covered and/or I put this in the wrong section, but I couldn't find anything quite like what I was looking for. Basically, I have been running Ubuntu on my backup machines for near a year now and I LOVE it. I want to move my main machine over to Ubuntu as well but there is one thing standing in my way: namely, my Steam collection.
I've seen on several websites and forum threads that Steam and its games run fairly well through Wine, but I've never used Wine before and am kind of nervous about setting this all up. My question is, is there any tutorial available that can walk me through getting steam working through Wine without issues? I've gotten fairly used to linux at this point, so I'm not afraid of the shell, I'm just looking for a little guidance. Also, a side question: I play Garry's Mod all the time, which I could see having lot of potential problems running on linux due to all the addons and stuff. Have any of you ever played Gmod on Ubuntu before? And if so does it work ok with most of the addons?

i recently installed wine, steam, and team fortress 2 so that i could play it. They all installed just fine except for not getting fonts but i did that manually. The problem is when i run tf2 the screen seems to scramble at the menu but after a while it goes away. Performance is terrible in game though and crashes have happened. im running ubuntu 11.04 and the beta of wine installed via software center. Everything else runs great if not better on ubuntu and i would really like to continue to use it over win7.

I have this problem that whenever java is running (eg.
