WINE users: Hi, I am new to wine, and am getting ready to try to test it and get started. These questions may seem basic, but any assistance would be well appreciated. a) What configuration file (basic or standard) do I need to bring it up? b) I have Mandrake 8.1, and I typed "wine" and got a response back about command line options, so I beleive it to be installed, any idea what Mandrake RPMs I need to be assured are there for it to work? c) I have been told Wine works best with Windows "installed". I am okay with installing windows, as my goal is to start off by keeping everything in a Linux partitioin for now, and not needing to run two different OSes at once. Dependability is a must for me, as I use business applications for business work. If I choose to have windows installed, must I make a seperate partition for it and such? or can I somehow run wine to install Windows into a unix directory, and then use Wine and Windows together from that point forward? d) how well does Quckbooks run under WINE? e) how well does Office 2000 run under WINE (Word, Excel, and Outlook to be specific)? Anything else I ought to know or other gotchas? thanks, Stuart Beverly Hills, CA USA
