Running Wine without Windows
|
||
|
|
==================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Sometimes you can bring applications to run by using some of the
|
||
|
|
native Windows DLL's, together with Wine. Here are some Tips by
|
||
|
|
Juergen Schmied on how to proceed. This assumes that your C:\windows
|
||
|
|
directory in the configuration file does not point to a native Windows
|
||
|
|
installation but is in a separate Unix file system. (For instance,
|
||
|
|
C:\windows is really /home/ego/wine/drives/c).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Create empty C:\windows and C:\windows\system directories.
|
||
|
|
Do not point Wine to a Windows directory full of old installations
|
||
|
|
and a messy registry. (Wine creates a special registry in your home
|
||
|
|
directory, in $HOME/.wine/*.reg. Perhaps you have to remove these
|
||
|
|
files).
|
||
|
|
- Run the application with -debugmsg +module,+file to find out
|
||
|
|
which files are needed. Copy the required DLL's one by one to the
|
||
|
|
C:\windows\system directory.
|
||
|
|
- Note that some network DLL's are not needed even though Wine is
|
||
|
|
looking for them. Do not copy the MPR.DLL into the directory,
|
||
|
|
use the internal implementation.
|
||
|
|
- Copy SHELL/SHELL32 and COMDLG/COMDLG32 COMMCTRL/COMCTL32
|
||
|
|
only as pairs to your Wine directory (these DLL's are
|
||
|
|
"clean" to use)
|
||
|
|
- Be consistent: Use only DLLS from the same Windows version
|
||
|
|
together.
|
||
|
|
- Put regedit.exe in the C:\windows directory (office95 imports
|
||
|
|
a *.reg file when it runs with a empty registry, don't know
|
||
|
|
about office97).
