Hi: I have Mandrake 9.0 with NO windows partition. Wine version 20020804. (Fresh installation from Mandrake) As a first step I ran the winecheck script i found on winehq.com It founds tree items as CRITICAL. Can anyone help how to solve this? Thanks, Miguel Here it's the complete output from the script: [mcanedo@grupogcm-interno mcanedo]$ ./winecheck This script verifies the configuration of the whole Wine environment. Note that this is an ALPHA version, and thus it doesn't catch all problems ! The results of the checks are printed on the right side: OK - test passed without problems. SUSPICIOUS - potentially problematic. You might want to look into that. BAD - This is a problem, and it leads to configuration score penalty. CRITICAL - A critical problem which can easily lead to malfunction. FAILED - This problem leads to Wine failure almost certainly. The result will be printed as a percentage score indicating config completeness. --------------------------- checking Wine base files --------------------------- 001. Checking for file "wine"...

Checking availability of windows registry entries... CRITICAL (entry "Default Taskbar" not found). - ADVICE: Windows registry does not seem to be added to Wine, as this typical Windows registry entry does not exist in Wine's registry. This can affect many newer programs. A complete original Windows registry entry set will *not* be available with a no-windows install, of course, so you'll have to live with that.. 30 tests. 2 suspicious, 0 bad, 3 critical, 0 failed. Wine configuration correctness score: 60.80% [mcanedo@grupogcm-interno mcanedo]$ _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@winehq.com http://www.winehq.com/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
