how to run .exe files using wine
i want to run dc++ (which is installed on my windows) on my fedora 8..
can ne one tell me how is it possible... |
Open up a terminal, navigate to the directory where the dc++.exe file is kept, and then type, "wine dc++.exe".
Easy peasy. |
Open a terminal, CD to wherever the file is and type
Code:
wine dc++.exe |
Wait a minute ... it is installed in Windows? To run a Windows program using Wine it has to be installed in Linux.
|
hey i din get u ......i hav got dc ++ installed on ma windows ....now how can i install it on linux.....

Installing your Windows application on Linux may be as simple as running the installation executable with wine. For instance `wine setup.exe` and then running the installed binaries with wine as suggested previously.

Chances are it will now install and run like it does in windows, if it requires more permission, relog as root and retry, or do it in terminal after typing "su", then your root password and change to the directory and install with "wine dc++.exe |

You should right-click in the window where it is, select 'Open Terminal Here'* and type in 'wine dc++.exe', assuming dc++.exe is the program name. *I am assuming Fedora 8 has that feature. If it doesn't, open a terminal the normal way and CD to the file directory. |
i installed wine ...and then tried navigated to the place where dc++.exe file was there in widows c drive...right clicked on it and opened with wine..
it opened just like windows but all the things what i had shared was no more shared ...and in our college one needs to share a minimun of 20gbs in order to use dc++... when i put the files for sharing the hashing of files started ....was able to share almost 4gbs then fedora got hanged n now whenever i start fedora again i lose all my shared files... |
