Enable wine...edit /usr/etc/wine/config

Enjoying arch manipulation but am not up to the big wine/config setup details.

Perhaps there is a short description of this
task somewhere available. :?:

I went through a copy of the wine config and copied it in /usr/etc/wine.config.

The file follows:WINE REGISTRY Version 2
;; All keys relative to \Machine\Software\Wine\Wine\Config

;; If you think it is necessary to show others your complete config for a
;; bug report, filter out empty lines and comments with
;; grep -v "^;" ~/.wine/config | grep '.'
;;
;; MS-DOS drives configuration
;;
;; Each section has the following format:
;; [Drive X]
;; "Path"="xxx" (Unix path for drive root)
;; "Type"="xxx" (supported types are 'floppy', 'hd', 'cdrom' and 'network')
;; "Label"="xxx" (drive label, at most 11 characters)
;; "Serial"="xxx" (serial number, 8 characters hexadecimal number)
;; "Filesystem"="xxx" (supported types are 'msdos'/'dos'/'fat', 'win95'/'vfat', 'unix')
;; This is the FS Wine is supposed to emulate on a certain
;; directory structure.

;; - "win95" for ext2fs, VFAT and FAT32

Any help would be wonderful!!!!

Ello!

I used winetools (http://www.franksworld.net/winetools/) to setup the wine config and fake windows dir. It's a pretty good tool and the defaults seem to work. Just make sure you set the cdrom as /dev/cdroms/cdrom0

Also there is winesetuptk (ftp://archlinux.org/incoming/winesetuptk-0.7.tar.gz) which is in the incoming dir of ftp://archlinux.org

I use Winex CVS instead of Wine. You can get it here:

To checkout a new CVS respository:

   1. cvs -d:pserver:cvs@cvs.transgaming.org:/cvsroot login
   2. When prompted for the password enter "cvs"
   3. cvs -z3 -d:pserver:cvs@cvs.transgaming.org:/cvsroot co winex

But you will have to compile that. What I did to make it easier to remove (if need be) was make a package of it. They don't want you to do that, but as long as you don't distrobute it I don't see any harm.

lilsirecho · 2003-12-11 17:52:24

famavolat: Many thanks for the info.

I have used winesetuptk in Slackware but it was some time back and had forgotten that program. It was usable in other than root, perhaps the version in arch.....20031118-1 is the same ...restricted to user only. Or was that just a recommendation for linux in general?

I will check out the references and give them a go....

Do you find that winexcvs is a better program...is it easier to set up?
Does the program work in GUI? :?:

lilsirecho · 2003-12-11 18:24:28

Downloaded winesetuptk into ..home..

Initiated.... pacman -Up winesetuptk-0.7.tar.gz

Advised....package info file missing in winesetuptk....

What procedure next?

No Problemo!

As far as the winexcvs goes.. winex is for playing Directx games. So unless you want to do that, then regular old wine will do the trick.

I use winesetuptk as a user and it works fine.. I prefer winetools though. The default config from winetools seems to work alot better for winex atleast.

And yes winex works in Xfree86, if thats what you mean?

Downloaded winesetuptk into ..home..
Initiated.... pacman -Up winesetuptk-0.7.tar.gz
Advised....package info file missing in winesetuptk....

I believe you have to untar that file first and the real package is inside. And you have to complie it with makepkg.
Do This:

tar -xzf winesetuptk-0.7.tar.gz
cd winesetuptk
makepkg
pacman -A winesetuptk-0.7-1.pkg.tar.gz

lilsirecho · 2003-12-11 19:49:43

Guess I forgot the first step!!!

I'm off to try the wizard.....

lilsirecho · 2003-12-11 21:46:19

I installed per the instructions you listed. It seems I may need more programs in order to invoke winesetuptk. It asks for tcl/tk and itcl tools to utilize the winesetup.

I find tcl/tk in the pacman -Q listing but not Ictl.

Not sure how to invoke Tcl/Tk in arch0.5..???

lilsirecho · 2003-12-11 23:44:01

Found the way to san jose....entered the winesetuptk in user boot-up but after loading the program with fake windows in user home..

I don't know how to make it connect to windows in wine...

I used to run wine in slackware by copy and paste the .exe
of compatible programs.

I do not have shell in user arch0.5 so can't paste..

As usual I am doing something wrong!!!!

lilsirecho · 2003-12-12 02:58:22

I find it not easy to arrange the wine setup!

I am trying to enable disk free in user mode and find
that it does not allow display of windows files in ..file manager...
which is possible in ; root mode.

What can be done to enable file managing in ..user mode..??

lilsirecho · 2003-12-13 08:41:40

My file manager is KDE disk free.

A new factor has been discovered...in user mode I can use disk free to enable all the linux related hdd elements...I cannot enable any windows hdd elements(no folders or files) and I have three hdd with windows. In root mode, I can enable windows hdd.
Use of the ...users entry in fstab... enables all users.

I suspect an incompatibility but can't find any.

lilsirecho · 2003-12-14 21:58:40

Solved the basic problem...have to mount the fat drive in user in order to use its contents...another dumbo! Can't use the drive if mounted in root...have to unmount in root and mount in user mode.
