Just for interests sake I tried running Alibre after installing winetricks and dotnet20. Terminal output: sebastian@sebastian-laptop:~$ cd $HOME/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Alibre\ Design/Program sebastian@sebastian-laptop:~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Alibre Design/Program$ wine 'Alibre Design.exe' fixme:sync:CreateMemoryResourceNotification (0) stub err:ole:CoGetContextToken apartment not initialised fixme:shell:URL_ParseUrl failed to parse L"System.Windows.Forms" fixme:shell:URL_ParseUrl failed to parse L"System" fixme:shell:URL_ParseUrl failed to parse L"System.Drawing" fixme:shell:URL_ParseUrl failed to parse L"alibre-bridge_Server" fixme:shell:URL_ParseUrl failed to parse L"mscorlib.resources" fixme:shell:URL_ParseUrl failed to parse L"mscorlib.resources" fixme:shell:URL_ParseUrl failed to parse L"" fixme:shell:URL_ParseUrl failed to parse L"vjslib" fixme:shell:URL_ParseUrl failed to parse L"vjslib" sebastian@sebastian-laptop:~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Alibre Design/Program$ James: if I move the wine folder would that amount to uninstalling it ie would I have to reinstall wine?
