I need help.
In making the transition from os2warp4 to SuSE 8.2 I have a win 3.1
program [winright] which runs fine on os/2's winos2 window and which I
would like to run in wine.
I dl the rpm for wine20030508 for SuSE 8.2.
I used winesetup to get the program installed and read the documentation
in /usr/share/doc/packages/wine/doc...
I am very impressed with the scope of the documentation.
I followed the instructions but found myself with a whole slew of errors
when I ran the accts.exe so I assume I misunderstood crucial elements.
Let me lay out the process I followed:
I transferred this program's files from the hpfs partition to
/home/xx/.wine/fake_windows/program files/winright/...
The program files are essentially a set of *.dll files.
I had also created a D drive [in the config file] whose
Path=/home/xx/data=D:\ and put the data files for the program in
//winright=D:\winright\....
The program calls for files>=100 but I couldn't find any logical place
in config to place the statement? - should I forget about it?
The program calls for three files to be put in the Windows? directory:
win.ini; rrw.ini and rights.ini.
I do have a hesitation: is the ms-windows directory the
/fake_windows/windows directory or is it the //system/ directory?
Am I correct in starting the process by clicking on the .exe file in the
winright directory?
I hope you can help me conclude the transfer from os2 to linux
successfully.
Thanks
