Description :
Wine is an implementation of the Windows Win32 and Win16 APIs on top of X and Unix. Think of Wine as a Windows compatibility layer. Wine provides both a development toolkit (Winelib) for porting Windows sources to Unix and a program loader, allowing many unmodified Windows 3.x/95/98/ME/NT/W2K/XP binaries to run under Intel Unixes.
Wine does not require Microsoft Windows, as it is a completely alternative implementation consisting of 100% Microsoft-free code, but it can optionally use native system DLLs if they are available.
To install MSIE 8x, ActiveX, Macromedia Flash, MS Corefonts, etc.. please run the script ./winetricks; or click [Start]+[alinux-apps]+[Applications] +[WineHQ]+[WineHQ - Install (Windows Apps)]
This is the SVN version of winetricks: svn checkout http://winetricks.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ winetricks-read-only Netflix streaming patches added: wget -O part0.patch http://source.winehq.org/patches/data/91645 thru wget -O part5.patch http://source.winehq.org/patches/data/91649
Example on getting Netflix to run, first download both Firefox and Silverlight, then run:
1. wine Firefox Setup 17.0.exe (Use any Firefox version you like) 2. wine Silverlight-4.exe (Silverlight 5 doesn\'t work yet, I\'m told) 3. Launch Firefox and go-to www.netflix.com; enjoy!
After installing MSIE - programs will run fine but you should have a valid Windows license and accept the Macromedia Flash EULA too. Please see both: microsoft.com and macromedia.com
Configuration file is in $HOME/.wine/config; cp it to your $HOME/.wine!!! To run or install an Windows application or game, type in an xterm: wine filename.exe < note you can run realplay.exe, mplayer2.exe, etc>
You can have KDE recognize *.exe(executables) and have it install or run: \"/usr/bin/wine file.exe\" as if your really in Windows by making the shortcut.
Some GUI wine programs and utilities: notepad progman regedit uninstaller xterm -e wcmd winebrowser winecfg winefile winelauncher winemine wineserver (just starts the server) winhelp
