Start wine: ----------- Check whether wine runs by entering (e.g.) 'wine notepad.exe' or 'wine progman'. General Notes: -------------- 1. All configuration data is in the registry, and can be accessed directly by editing system.reg or user.reg, "wine regedit.exe" or with the graphical configuration frontend "winecfg". 2. Drives are configured by symlinking in ~/.wine/dosdevices/, or by using "winecfg". 3. You have to set the WINEPREFIX variable to the wine base dir, if it is different than ~/.wine. There usually is no need for additionaly configuring wine. If no ~/.wine is present, Wine will setup a fake windows environment in ~/.wine by itself, including all necessary config file and registry settings using the "wine.inf" file. Windows DLLs not supported by Wine: -------------------------------------- A shell script called "winetricks" is included in this RPM which can be used to quickly install missing DLLs from public redistributable archives. winetricks help shows all installation possibilities winetricks gecko Installs the Mozilla Gecko rendering engine, which provides generic HTML rendering support to Wine. This engine is also in the wine-gecko RPM. winetricks mfc40 installs the MFC40.DLL winetricks mfc42 installs the MFC42.DLL (Applications might need it) Violation of existing windows: ------------------------------ Wine can corrupt MS Windows installation. It is not recommended to point Wine to an existing Windows installation. Also it should no longer be necessary to copy stuff from Windows installations. Error and warning messages: --------------------------- Wine is intensively developed but is not always complete. Therefore things might not work and wine might print error and warning messages.
