I'm experimenting with Wine under Kubuntu Hardy Heron, on a former Vista laptop (boy, does it run noticeably faster on Linux). The deal is that my son wants to move to Linux on his desktop, but still have access to particular games that he plays. The laptop is the testbed. Before trying to install any of the games, I tried out three applications that I find useful, Orbitron, Country Codes and IrfanView. Orbitron was no problem, apart from occasionally losing window focus, especially during update operations, but this is fixed by a tap on the escape key. Both Country Codes (from Saber Naeemi) and IrfanView fail to install. Are there any install logs that would show why the installs failed? If so, where can I find them?
