After going through dependency hell trying to get the latest version installed, I get the same "Error: Printer error" on startup. The terminal messages are a little different but that's all. wine "c:\Visualdb\bin\DBASEWIN.EXE" fixme:toolhelp:InterruptRegister16 (0000, 0x193f00a8), stub. fixme:int31:DOSVM_Int31Handler Real mode segment (1d5f) to descriptor: no longer supported fixme:int31:DOSVM_FreeRMCB callback address: 1001:0000 wine --version returns wine-1.3.23
