I'm still not sure how I did it, but I managed to use the link <a href="http://wiki.winehq.org/GitWine" target="_blank">http://wiki.winehq.org/GitWine</a> for the latest development version, and even installed git (blind man navigating New York City streets). So now all I have to do is<br>
Code:<br>
git fetch ; git rebase origin<br>
<br>
�to stay up to date. My question is how do I run programs with it? When I do the normal<br>
Code:<br>
wine setup.exe<br>
<br>
�for example, it says that I don't have Wine installed.<br>
<br>
The reason I'm trying to do this is because the Wine in the repository won't even install Warhammer or EQ2 (for example), and the steps to install Wine manually get about as far as uncompressing the thing to my computer. lol I sure wish I knew what voodoo your clever Linux users were using to get this program to work right. I had thought I understood computers pretty well until I installed Jaunty Jackalope and tried using Wine �[Embarassed] �[Shocked]<br>

</blockquote></div><p>I can't say that I understand what you did in 100% but... whenever you get source code of wine (or any other app) you MUST compile it first (build your app). For wine follow this steps:</p><p>1.sudo apt-get build-dep wine (that should get all dependencies required to build wine)</p>
<p>2.sudo apt-get install checkinstall (this tool will allow you to build .deb package of wine after compilation)</p><p>3.(in wine source dir) ./configure && make depend && make </p><p>OR if your CPU have many cores:</p>
<p>./configure && make depend -jX && make -jX where X is numeber of cores your CPU has</p><p>After (hopefully, successful) compilation just type:</p><p>sudo checkinstall</p><p>and follow instructions there - it should install wine at the end - if it won't just install it by hand:</p>
<p>sudo dpkg -i wine_<something>.deb</p><p></p><p>Now you are all set, just type wine appname.exe to start something ;]</p>
