Whoops,

that went off way too early. What I intended to say was:

I downloaded Wine-20050211-i486-S10.tgz unzipped it, and then went on to read ./usr/doc/Wine-20050211/README, which says:

"
From the top-level directory
of the Wine source (which contains this file), run:

./tools/wineinstall

"

...huh? There is no "tools" directory (not to mention "wineinstall") anywhere to be found? I only have "usr" and "install" directories?

Lasse

No, there is no "tools" directory, because you have downloaded a precompiled binary for Slackware 10, rather than the source files, which would be compiled and installed in the way the readme describes.


If you are in fact running Slack 10, use your package manager to install the *.tgz normally.

If you are not running Slack 10, then download the correct binary for your distribution, or download the source tarball and compile Wine, if you would like to do that instead.

Hope this helps.
