Try and use source to install
i've had bugs in older versions of WINE |
Do you get the same with:
wine notepad.exe ? Have you copied user32.dll to the working directory? http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=1121 |
I just noticed there is a new RPM available for Mandriva: wine-0.9.38-mdv.i586.rpm.
There hadn't previously been a build since 0.9.30. This command will tell you one of two things: 1) what version of Wine you are running, or 2) that your problem isn't with notepad but with Wine itself Code:
wine --version |
thanx guys 4 the help i well try again and tell you with the Results

but i didn't understand what you mean by saying "reinstall windows 95 or even better, msdos and then build back up from ther"? Because i dont have much experience in formating note: i just found out that when i try to install windows it tell me Unknown partition try another (all three partitions have the same message) Frankly im surprised of how u discovered that just by one error message:rolleyes: regards |
Were you trying to run notepad.exe from a Windows partition? Why not run it from ~/.wine/drive_c/windows ?

Hey max020, you never told us the result from running: wine --version
I am wondering if the problem isn't notepad, but Wine itself. If wine --version gives an error, then you know the whole Wine installation has a problem. Edit: There are two dash characters in that command. |
Hi there KenJackson,
sorry forgot to post it and the result from running: wine --version is the same [root@localhost m-j]# wine --version Floating point exception [root@localhost m-j]# and yes the Wine installation has a problem note:the name of the rpm file i downloaded is wine-0.9.38-mdv.i586.rpm i didn't find one with i686 arch and i just clicked on it and it told me the instalition is done so how can it be that i didn't install it right. and by the way i used back-track2 live cd distro wich have wine installed by default (after i give up on mandriva). and it worked just fine on back-track but then another issue Shows up i get (the directory you have chosen don't have Enough space and the same message on all directory's i chose)when i try to install any of windows programm's in back-track. i don't know is it just me or that wine is trying to annoy me?! but i will not stop until i run wine properly sooner or later with you'r help Of course ;) and thanx for the quick replay's and help |
