In any event is what I downloaded through the Add/Remove Software menu on my system a few days ago. One of the things I am trying to learn as a new Linux user is where the applications actually get installed to, or how to read their properties. In other words I am just guessing that 0.9.22 is the wine version number. >It seems that you want to use a native windows installation as your C > drive. This is really not recommended.

I am not sure what you mean by native widows installation as my C drive In my Windows system I have C drive with various data, and D drive with data and the WindowsXP system. These are physically distinct 10GB drives, not partitions. In my Linux system I have the C drive mounted as /mnt/windows/C, and the D drive mounted as /mnt/windows/D, and a 200GB drive with just Linux on it. In the Wine configuration screen under drive mappings I have C: /mnt/windows/C/ D: /mnt/windows/D/ E: / F: /mnt/windows/C G: /mnt/windows/D H: /home/Bob I have no idea what is going on with the E, F and G drives. Wine just seems to put them in there. I do have a CD rom which Windows calls E, but I have not mounted it into linux yet. I assume H is my linux hard drive. When I fist started wine a few days ago, C was mapped to something like /c_drive/ or something like that. Is that what you mean a fake C drive ? The problem I ran into was that when I ran my scad spice program it worked basically, and found most data files, but it would not find any".include" files unless I manually changed all references to C drive to /mnt/windows/C, And I decided that cant be right, So I went into config and mapped C into where it is actually mounted. > the files in its own directory.

Ok, that makes sense. But how do I tell wine where windows\system32 is ? thanks for you help so far _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.winehq.org/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
