MetaTrader with Wine on Ubuntu 9.10

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In early 2009 I was running MetaTrader on Kubuntu 8.04. It installed and ran perfectly. I never paid attention to which version of Wine it was using. It was whatever was in the repositories.

A while back I did a clean install of Kubuntu 9.10 and never could get MetaTrader to work.  It would appear to install fine but when I try to start it I get the dancing cursor for a few seconds but the program never opens. I tried several versions of Wine with no change.

I went back to Kubunto 8.04 with a clean install and tried several versions of Wine and it did the same thing. 

Now I just did a clean install of Ubuntu 9.10. According to http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=2893 MetaTrader works with Wine 1.1.28. It also refers to a site with installation instructions but they are from 2007 so maybe out of date.

Before I give this a try on this install I want to know now is how can I get MetaTrader to work today with Ubuntu 9.10.

Which version of Wine will work?

Where can I get that version of Wine and what is the best way to install it?
