<!--TITLE: Additional Wine Help -->

|
|
|
This is meant as generic instructions in case an AppDB entry
|
|
for a certain program doesn't exist.
|
|
|
|
<ol>
|
|
|
|
<li> Make sure your Wine release is recent.</li><p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><a href="http://www.winehq.org/site/download"> Official WineHQ builds</a>
|
|
for Linux Red Hat, Mandrake, SuSE, Slackware and FreeBSD, hosted by
|
|
<a href="http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=6241">SourceForge.net</a>.</li>
|
|
<li><a href="http://www.winehq.org/site/cvs">Official WineHQ Source</a> for information on how to
|
|
build and install wine via source read over the
|
|
<a href="http://www.winehq.org/site/howto"> Wine HowTo</a>.</li>
|

</ul>

<p>
|
|
|
|
<li> You can run winecheck this handy tool is located in the /tools directory.
|
|
(chmod +x winecheck; ./winecheck)
|
|
to verify the most important aspects of Wine environment configuration.</li><p>
|
|
|
|
<li> Run your program</li><p>
|
|
|
|
<li> In case of failure, try different builtin, native DLL settings:
|
|
Run Wine with --debugmsg +loaddll to find out which
|
|
DLLs are loaded as native or builtin ones.
|
|
Then make sure appropriate native versions are in the
|
|
c:\windows\system directory as configured in your wine
|
|
config file. There are five options you can choose from when setting
|
|
dll overrides, I will use commctrl here as a example.</li><p>
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
"commctrl" = "native, builtin"
|
|
"commctrl" = "builtin, native "
|
|
"commctrl" = "native"
|
|
"commctrl" = "builtin"
|
|
"commctrl" = ""
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<li> In case of persisting failure, you may want to read over the
|
|
<a href="http://www.winehq.org/site/documentation">Wine Documentation</a>
