Hi people first time Wine user here, Thought I'd try wine out on my Ubuntu 9.04 desktop box as there's one or 2 windows progs I want to run. Installed wine the way instructed on here by adding to the software sources and the install went fine. However when I try to click on 'configure wine' or try to access the notepad in Wine nothing happens although I can browse to the C: folder. If I run winecfg in the terminal I get this output: X Error of failed request: XF86VidModeExtensionDisabled Major opcode of failed request: 129 (XFree86-VidModeExtension) Minor opcode of failed request: 6 (XF86VidModeGetAllModeLines) Serial number of failed request: 85 Current serial number in output stream: 85 X Error of failed request: XF86VidModeExtensionDisabled Major opcode of failed request: 129 (XFree86-VidModeExtension) Minor opcode of failed request: 6 (XF86VidModeGetAllModeLines) Serial number of failed request: 85 Current serial number in output stream: 85 Whats actually supposed to happen? [Question] I don't know if it makes any difference but I run my Ubuntu box in my workshop headless (Sorta 24/7 torrent/media streamer box) and VNC into it every now and then from a PPC Mac so no monitor. Would this make a difference? Can you even run Wine over a VNC?? Oh, the 9.04 is fully up to date as well. Sorry to be a bit vague but I'm as new as you can get to Wine and still a fairly newb linux user Any help would be great.. Cheers!
