The cancel button is unresponsive. (This is > with the stdole32 patch) I have had a chance to look at the issues you were having. I reproduced your first problem (Couldn't copy file ... IKernel.exe ... error(32)). Error code 32 is sharing violation, which I traced back to Wine not exiting properly after a previous try. Therefore a "killall wine" and "killall wineserver" solved this. I'm not sure what you mean by 'it hangs'. On my fairly powerful system, the interface is very slow, but progress bar slowly fills up. I think I gave up installing it when it had only reached 50% after about half an hour of running it. This is almost certainly due to some hacks we have in OLE32 and touches a number of functions. I'll start adding in FIXME's in the relevant places in the next week or so, but I'm not sure how long it will be before we can solve the problems completely. > I've managed to get the app installed by installing it under win98 on a > dual-boot machine, and then tarring up all the installed files and moving > them over to my pure-wine machine.

Admittedly I haven't tried actually running the program yet, but the installer worked fairly fast and well with ole32, rpcrt4 and oleaut32 being set to native. > Since the app itself is now free, I'd really like to find some way of > running this in a pure wine environment, so any suggestions for > workarounds to the DLL issues would be greatly appreciated.
