Configure Wine
Hi, I have 2 Questions.
1.- I recenty installed Wine, but when Im in root user, and I want to run some programs, appears me that doesnt exist /root/.wine/ how can I configure?
2.- I have mounted my HDA1 Windows 2000 in /mnt/windows, I copied the Microsoft Visual Studio folder to /home/gerardo/c/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio/, but when I run vb6.exe appears me the splash screen of Visual Basic but then appears me Cannot find STDOLE2.TLB file. What is the problem?
What can I do to solve both problems?.
Thanks A lot.

There are some programs that automatically configure WINE, but I think they come seperately. This talks about them.
1. Make a directory called ".wine" in /root, then copy this sample config file to it: "/usr/docs/wine/samples/config". Your WINE folder might becalled something else (ie with number at the end like this:WINE-20002435). If you search for wine.conf in the manual pages it will explain this file. Now edit it to specify where you want your fake C:\ and other things. For example you may want to put it in "/opt/wine/c" you'd have this:
[Drive C]
"Path" = "/opt/wine/c"
"Type" = "hd"
"Label" = "Hard Drive"
"Filesystem" = "win95"
There's alot more to configure but this'll run the simpler stuff.
2. VB probably needed a file that was in another folder. You would probably have better luck if you ran the installation program under wine.

I told you your wine folder may have numbers at the end like this: wine-20002435. Look for a folder that begins with the word "wine".
