Hi, I am running Slackware 9.1... I got wine to install alright and the program I want to run under Wine installed correctly, only problem I have is when I try to run the exe, it says..

wine /home/me/c/Program Files/PT Software/PT Editor/PTEditor.exe
Could not stat /mnt/fd0 (No such file or directory), ignoring drive A:
Could not stat /cdrom (No such file or directory), ignoring drive D:
wine: cannot find '/home/me/c/Program'


I tried to replace the spaces in between Program Files, PT Software and PT Editor with a _ , but it still didnt work, i got this..

wine /home/me/c/Program_Files/PT_Software/PT_Editor/PTEditor.exe
Could not stat /mnt/fd0 (No such file or directory), ignoring drive A:
Could not stat /cdrom (No such file or directory), ignoring drive D:
wine: cannot find '/home/me/c/Program_Files/PT_Software/PT_Editor/PTEditor.exe'

I know this program runs under Wine, i seen it before... Anyone have any ideas? thanks

Any time you have a space between a directory or file name like Program Files,
you must add a back slash like so: Program\ Files

Try this and see how it works:
wine /home/me/c/Program\ Files/PT\ Software/PT\ Editor/PTEditor.exe

Ok, I tried that and this is what I get..

wine /home/n30trac3r/c/Program\ Files/PT\ Software/PT\ Editor/PTEditor.exe
Could not stat /mnt/fd0 (No such file or directory), ignoring drive A:
Could not stat /cdrom (No such file or directory), ignoring drive D:

Any ideas? thanks for the tip about the spaces

Ok, unfortunately wine is not windows and is missing some things.
You may have to get that dll from a windows installation or search for it on the internet.
Check out this old post:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...03/10/1/100188
and
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...003/09/1/88041

Once u find the dll , put it in the appropriete place and try it again.

For some applications, winex or crossover office work better. The downside to these programs is that they are not free...
Good Luck

Thanks for your help!! I got it running.. I just have one more question, I get some crazy characters for fonts now.. any idea?

When you first started wine, did it spend about 4 min loading fonts?
It may be that the program uses fonts that were not included in wine. Find out what font the program uses and check winehq.org for font packs.
Dunno, but you may be able to change the font view in the program your running.

Glad its working anyway. =)
