Dear each. I have a job, well almost, unfortunely they havent seen the light regarding operating systems and are still tied 'to another system which a lot of people use...'. with that in mind I thought I might get back in to the swing of their thing as I havnt used it for about two years so I decided to load up WINE (from Linux Format Oct 2001) using the RPM manager. It says that it is installed. apparently. I cant get it to work. What do I have to do to it? I cannot find an icon anywhere and if I open a terminal it doesnt seem to understand it or am I doing it wrong.? I would just like to click on an icon to start the program up. can anyone help me please.
Hiya spaceman, What error message you getting ?? I had problems initially using wine, i had to make a wine.conf, and then create a directory for each user called ~/.wine to use wine you (generally) type $ wine /path/to/windows/program.exe (eg $ wine /dosc/windows/calc.exe) hope this helps...
