If this fixes the problem, please file a bug report as detailed below. > OS is Suse 11.1 on 64bit AMD quad core. Note I can run Google Earth natively rather than using Wine, but I have an application in wine that needs to interface to Google Earth. If there was some way it could connect to the Google Earth under Linux, that would solve my problem. > Don't know if this is possible. If the program uses a command line, it may be possible to call a shell script instead that fires off the Linux version of Google Earth. > Incidentally, I tried to trick wine by copying all files and directories from a windows installation of Google Earth. It barfs a bit trying to create some files, but does eventually show part of the Google Earth program. Basically the "frame", but not the earth inside the frame. I used the winetricks to get all the fonts installed. > This is because registry entries may be incorrect. You might also want to search Wine's BugZilla (http://bugs.winehq.org/) for existing bugs. If you find a bug that matches your problem, you should create a bugzilla account and vote on the bug. This lets developers know that the bug still exists and that interest is there for a fix. If there is no bug report, then you should create one for any problems you find with Wine, excepting copying an existing Windows installation (those bugs will be closed) and if you copied an existing program from a Windows installation (these will also be closed.) > If there is a way to get the program running by copying a windows install, I'm game for that too. > > > This is highly recommended against. Wine is not structured like any version of Windows(TM). This will break your Wine installation as well. James McKenzie
