The Testing Area :: July Extensions
I have installed wine-0.9.18.unc. after the installation of internet explorer 6 i cant start ie6. there apears a message box, that means, that i shoul install some files from the gecko engine. how can i do that ? the computer where dsl and wine is installed, has now access to the internet...
1) Please don't tell me you want wine so you can run internet explorer....
2) You failed to mention that this was not an actual unc install. Since you copied files into /opt that were intended to be united with the main */lib and */bin directories, the package is probably not going to work without some tweaking. It may be as simple as specifying PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH variables to point to the wine directories.
You might want to look at the *.uci version of wine to see how that was set up to run in /opt
a) i need the uggly ie6 for only one reason: some software needs the active x features of internet explorer to work, it will not start without active x (ie) is installed. i willl not use the ie ! i have firefox 1.5.05 installed an i would not use this damn ie thing...
b) before 0.9.18 i had 0.9.12.uci installed, i cant install the ie with this version, the ie installer will go away with some horrible error. all other software is installed and worked very fine (photoshop 7, golive...)
i will boot up my laptop via cd-image and mount the uci extension, so that i can see the PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH variables.
BTW: is there a way to install vmware player ? i have a complete win98 image with all my software installed in this image for developing (CodeCharge, Photoshop, GoLive, Borland C++ Builder and so on..) Maybe thats the better solution, but i dont have found a vmware player extension yet...
