Unpack wine source code and copy patches to wine source folder. Now simply type(in console, while being in wine dir): patch -p1 <patch1.patch patch -p1 <patch2.patch You should get something like: "Patching file xxx; HUNK xxx succeed at xxx" now simply recompile wine and use it (instructions on how to compile wine depends on your distribution for Debian based, like Ubuntu): 1.sudo apt-get build-dep wine (that should get all dependencies required to build wine) 2.sudo apt-get install checkinstall (this tool will allow you to build .deb package of wine after compilation) 3.(in wine source dir) ./configure && make depend && make OR if your CPU have many cores: ./configure && make depend -jX && make -jX where X is numeber of cores your CPU has After (hopefully, successful) compilation just type: sudo checkinstall and follow instructions there - it should install wine at the end - if it won't just install it by hand: sudo dpkg -i wine_<something>.deb Now you are all set, just type wine appname.exe to start something ;] -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
