wine question

I got a question about wine!

I installed a win program using wine, and in the installation i chose to install it in C:\Program Files\PTeditor.

But where do I find this folder in linux?

It said in the install (C: fake windows partition)

how can I start it?

Thanks

Well, at the wine I've installed, it created a hidden folder at /home/user called .wine

Get into the folder with cd .wine and inside there, there's a "c" directory and there is the so called fake windows partition. You should be able to see the program you installed in there and run it's executable with wine <executable name>

Good luck!

Thanks, I found the directory, but when I try to start the program it gives me the following error message:

err:module:PE_fixup_imports Module (file) MSVCIRT.dll (which is needed by C:\Program Files\PT Editor\PTEditor.exe) not found

Do I need windoze files?(dlls)

Yes and you'll probably need to put the mscvirt.dll file in (fake)c/windows/system

XavierP is right. Try google for the dll. There are plenty of repositories around with dll's for you to download

. If you have a win98 installation then you are set, simply copy *.dll to your fake c:\sytem drive and you are set. Remember though, Win2000/NT/XP dll's usually don't work right with wine :S

I got powertab to work fine on Slackware 9.1 but when I try to play a file, it says... The current MIDI setup is damaged. Copy the original MIDIMAP.CFG file to WIndows System Directory, and then try again.

Any ideas? thanks
