my linux version: MANDRAKE 9.1
my winex version: 2.1.16 (?) (rpm is called: "winex21-2.1-16.src.rpm"

i installed it....

and what i should do now??

take look what i try to do:

[root@localhost windows]# winex notepad.exe
bash: winex: command not found
[root@localhost windows]# wine notepad.exe
bash: wine: command not found

pls help...

I can understand why someone would want wine for games .....but notepad?.........hmmm......

whats winblows? Ive never heard of it. You must mean Windows.


hunter_one: You've installed a SOURCE RPM. You have to now compile that source. Im not sure how, I dont use RPM based distros.


You're a member right? Just grab a binary package from them, and install that. It would probobly use an i386 or i686 in the rpm name.


Also, WineX 2.1 is very old, I wouldn't use it. Using regular WINE would be better than that.

i`m in directory where is my windows98 ^^

so NOTEPAD.EXE is there...

but i dont founded nowhere winex binary file...

i dont configured winex too because i dont know what i shuld do now... i dont know where i can find "config" or something...

i installed it from RPM....

and what now??

i`m not member of TransGameing

i downloaded this RMP from somewhere...

i think installing from CVS is quite to hard for me...
but i can try do it...
but i need your help....
pls write exacly what i must to do to run WINEX from CVS or

There was a how-to somewhere for getting Diablo2 working with WINE, you had to download a special EXE.


Well, if you're not a member, what you downloaded was an illegal copy of WineX, so I wont help you.

it wasnt illegal....

its RPM made by tar.gz2rmp ... its not orginal TRANSGAMEING RPM....

Go to the transgaming site and download the current cvs.
./compile && make && make install

For the record, there are dozens of non-illegal rpms of winex and point to play out there. Gentoo includes ebuilds for both, and a simple googlesearch will get you any rpm you want. They're just snaphots of the cvs when the releases where branched, and include some patches to make them work ok.

teval: Transgaming just sent a ceice and decist letter to Gentoo for its ebuilds. I believe they complied.

The thing isnt licensed fully under the GPL, and distributing a package is against their license.

i downloaded WINEX from CVS...
i`m installing it using:

./tools/wineinstall

and after loooong installing i get that error:

i got polish version... B£AD=ERROR

what i should do now?

You don't have OpenGL installed. Well not the header files anyways. You'll want to install the OpenGL drivers specific to your video card if at all possible...

if not possible, you'll need the mesa libraries I believe.

my video card is: nVidia GeForce 440 MX tv out

in linux show as "GEFORCE 4 (generic)"

i`m newbie... how to install openGL for my video card?

pls tell me....

i downloaded and installed newes drivers for my GeForce from WWW.NVIDIA.COM and i still get this error:
