Guest Paul (MVP) Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 To install Wine on Eee: - Run a terminal window (Ctrl-Alt-T) - Run konsole (optional, allows you to paste stuff in!) - sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list - Paste at the bottom of the file: deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ stable main non-free contrib deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US/ stable/non-US main contrib non-free[/code] - Save (Ctrl-X then Y) - [i]sudo apt-get update[/i] - [i]sudo apt-get install wine[/i] - [i]sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list[/i] - Re-edit the file, adding a hash before the two new repositories, i.e. [code]#deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ stable main non-free contrib #deb http://non-us.debian.org/debian-non-US/ stable/non-US main contrib non-free - sudo apt-get update All done! You can now run software in wine by running WINE EXEFILENAME from the command prompt. P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 20, 2007 Report Share Posted November 20, 2007 Nice 1 Paul, bit of a noob question here but will WINE only run single exe applications? ie apps that don't need an install on windows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Paul (MVP) Posted November 21, 2007 Report Share Posted November 21, 2007 No, you can run the install through WINE, then (assuming it works OK), you can use the application as normal. P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 15, 2008 Report Share Posted December 15, 2008 thanks for this one Paul. ok noob question with WINE can you install programs that are not linux such as itunes thanks That's what wine is m8, the ability to install/ run windows apps through Linux. No guarantee that the app will work, I'm sure someone's tried itunes b4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest jcaryy Posted April 23, 2011 Report Share Posted April 23, 2011 hi everyone iwant to share something with you If you have a usb cd drive, install xp normally. You should remove ALL partitions, including the one marked bios, when you are selecting the install partition, and make a single one. consider using nlite, my xp install was about 520megs, leaving plenty of space. losing all the extra **** meant a boot time of less than 20 seconds!
