Before continuing, make sure you have a normal user account, log out of root, and use your normal account. Same goes for su or sudo: Don't use these commands to use root privleges when they're not necessary, either. http://www.newlinuxuser.com/explain-why-not-log-on-as-root/ > fixme:ntdll:FILE_GetNtStatus Converting errno 40 to STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL > Warning: the specified Windows directory L"c:\\windows" is not accessible. > fixme:ntdll:FILE_GetNtStatus Converting errno 40 to STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL > Warning: the specified System directory L"c:\\windows\\system32" is not > accessible. fixme:ntdll:FILE_GetNtStatus Converting errno 40 to > STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL fixme:ntdll:FILE_GetNtStatus Converting errno 40 to > STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL fixme:ntdll:FILE_GetNtStatus Converting errno 40 to > STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL fixme:ntdll:FILE_GetNtStatus Converting errno 40 to > STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL fixme:ntdll:FILE_GetNtStatus Converting errno 40 to > STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL fixme:ntdll:FILE_GetNtStatus Converting errno 40 to > STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL fixme:ntdll:FILE_GetNtStatus Converting errno 40 to > STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL fixme:ntdll:FILE_GetNtStatus Converting errno 40 to > STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL Warning: the specified Windows directory L"c:\\windows" > is not accessible. fixme:ntdll:FILE_GetNtStatus Converting errno 40 to > STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL Warning: the specified System directory > L"c:\\windows\\system32" is not accessible. fixme:ntdll:FILE_GetNtStatus > Converting errno 40 to STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL fixme:ntdll:FILE_GetNtStatus > Converting errno 40 to STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL fixme:ntdll:FILE_GetNtStatus > Converting errno 40 to STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL fixme:ntdll:FILE_GetNtStatus > Converting errno 40 to STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL fixme:ntdll:FILE_GetNtStatus > Converting errno 40 to STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL fixme:ntdll:FILE_GetNtStatus > Converting errno 40 to STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL fixme:ntdll:FILE_GetNtStatus > Converting errno 40 to STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL fixme:ntdll:FILE_GetNtStatus > Converting errno 40 to STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL fixme:ntdll:FILE_GetNtStatus > Converting errno 40 to STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL wine: could not load > L"c:\\windows\\system32\\setup.exe": Module not found root@darkstar:~# > fixme:ntdll:FILE_GetNtStatus Converting errno 40 to STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL > err:wineboot:main Cannot set the dir to L"c:\\windows" (31) > > should I try to reinstall from source ? If the program you were trying to run is installed on your Windows partition, yes, you should reinstall it in wine. Wine has it's own registry and is not aware of any possible Windows installation's registry and vice versa: Trying to install programs in Windows and expecting them to work under Wine won't work for the same reason you can't install programs in Wine and expect them to work in Windows. - -- Paul Johnson baloo@xxxxxxxxx -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFH8W6bUCxPKZafKh0RAgemAJ9o4Q7PU0fTcHbflps41XWboOTVygCgl425 9jW4qHD36BY4r/WSnxIZ+go= =bwWY -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
