Running Codeweavers Preview 3 over Helix, X4, & kernel 2.4.2.
<p>Notepad & sol run fine, but when I try to install a program like
Netscape (just testing) I get the following error:
<p><font color="#990000">Invoking /opt/wine/bin/wine.bin cc32d475.exe ...</font>
<br><font color="#990000">fixme:pthread_kill_other_threads_np</font>
<br><font color="#990000">err:win32:fixup_imports No implementation for
shlwapi.dll.0(StrRetToBufA) imported from shell32.dll, setting to 0xdeadbeef</font>
<br><font color="#990000">err:win32:fixup_imports No implementation for
shlwapi.dll.0(StrRetToBufW) imported from shell32.dll, setting to 0xdeadbeef</font>
<br><font color="#990000">Wine exited with a successful status</font>
<p>Well I'm using as drive C, /usr/share/wine-c & have copied an actual
Win98 Windows dir there. System dir does have shell32 & shlwapi.
But I found in config that shell & shell32 are in exceptions, set to
'internal', not native, so commented that out. No exception is made
for shlwapi, so presume it defaults to native, as set earlier in config.
<p>Also found /opt/wine/lib wasn't getting loaded so fixed that.
<p>Read all 94? messages in newsgroup and read User & Reference Guides
& no reference to this. And IRC channel is dead...
<br>I am very close to getting this to work, but have put days into this
fruitlessly.
<p>Also want a common Wine config for all users, so copied config into
/etc/wine.conf, then removed all but the first line from users' config,
but when I tried to run something it complained of incomplete config file.
What is the proper way to make common settings for all users, for easy
administration?

<br>Thanks,
<br>C.
<p>The best way out is always through.
