05-05 Wine, Mandrake RPM

[toddjnsn]

I never really used WINE before, so I figured I'd give it a go. I installed the Mandrake version of Wine, as I run PCLinuxOS, which is a souped-up version of Mandrake 9.2 -- beefed up to be about the same as Mandrake 10.0 ( w/ Kernel 2.4.23).

 

Anyway, I noticed in the Mandrake download page from Wine, there is a 55MB KDEpatch? Didn't know what to do with that... Install it? Didn't want to screw anything up. Anyway, I got Wine, and I RPMed it fine into the system.

 

I downloaded Frank Corner's Wine Toolkit (available from the WINE HQ page)... I ran that, and tried to install DCOM98, and after it would download it, it would run fine -- but then each installation program crashed out, with some Windows error that it couldn't install the file on the hard drive with an error message saying it couldn't extract the files -- and that it may be due to low memory or a corrupt Cabinet file or something. But this happens with everything, and this is from the actual Windows program installations.

 

Any feedback? Thanks! :)

toddjnsn I hope to help you.

You must go to

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.p...ackage_id=80066

and download wine-20040505-mdk1.i586.rpm

 

then you must download from here

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.p...p?group_id=6241

The file winesetuptk-0-73.i586.rpm

 

install wine-20040505-mdk1.i586.rpm as root

and then you must install winesetuptk-0-73.i586.rpm as root also

 

To configure wine you must run as normal user winesetuptk

****you must make fake windows folder.
