yes, this is broken, I have no solution unfortunately.

Does this mean that Wine cannot handle audio or just that one may not tweak the
audio settings from the menu?

May one tweak Wine settings from rxvt?

Also, do we know what the Audio tab in Wine is calling and is there a way that the
Puppy install of Wine could add a line that either redirects or disables it?

Sure would be a cleaner solution to have it unresponsive than to crash!

0.9.22 didn't work for me. ies4linux (IE6) got broken. (I need to test web changes on IE6 and don't want to reboot.) While mucking around, I got a message similar to New Puppy Fan. IE6 crash said something about 9.22 not having "makeprefix" or something similar. Reverted to 9.17 and reinstalled ies4linux and everything's ok - IE6 with Flash 9 works pretty well. Oh - running 1.08r1 on an x40 laptop with MU's enlightenment dotpup.

Best wishes to all puppies!

I added a new dotpup with Opera 9.02 and the Flash 9 plugin, see first message. Mark

I did all of the installs on the first message.

As an aside: The first option didn't work because /mnt/home/ does not exist, same as on
the other desktop PC. Not sure why.

WordViewer works as does Opera.

When the installs were complete I could not find the Windows-C drive anywhere.

I tried a reboot and still no joy.

WDYT? Thanks! doc

WINDOWS-C-DRIVE is a symbolic link to:
/root/.wine/drive_c

It is created with this command:

cd /root
ln -s /root/.wine/drive_c WINDOWS-C-DRIVE

Thanks! This worked on my desktop but not on my laptop.

No error message, it is a light teal instead of a dark blue in ROX-filer.

Might I need to reboot for some reason?

[MU]

Do you have a folder
/root/.wine/drive_c
?
Click on the "show hidden" icon in Rox to see hiddenfiles beginning with a dot (.).

Got a /root/.xine but not a /root/.wine

Very odd.

[MU]

Then please re-install the dotpup with wordview, as it installs to /root/.wine

Have you loaded this directly to Puppy 2.10r1 or will it require some install tweaks first?

Flash9 Beta dotpup for Linux:

Should work "out of the box" in 2.10.

Looked good through the install and initial opening of a Flash site.

As soon as it starts to load the movie on the desktop and on the laptop it crashes
Seamonkey.

Just loaded it on desktop2. I do not have the opera-flash loaded there nor the WINE
files I have been testing on desktop1 and the laptop -- figured there may be a conflict.

Flash9 crashes Seamonkey as soon as I try to access the Flash site, earlier than on
the other two computers.

Note: The test site is http://hasbro.com/transformers

I can access the site, but when I close the 3D-viewer there, mozilla crashes on my notebook (256 MB).
Will try later at home.

Opera 9.02-Wine and Wordview have stopped responding.

When I clicked on the Winecfg icon this error window popped up:

/usr/local/Wine-mime-type-for-Rox-1.2/Winecfg:
line 3:
winecfg:
command not found

your Puppy does very strange things.
Maybe your machine is broken?

I would not say that from 1 error only, but as you have the strange crashes with my backgroundsetter, too...

winecfg should be in
/usr/bin/

The problem is that I am seeing a couple of similar problems on two different desktops and
one laptop and several similar problems on the laptop and one of the desktops.

The most common problems are on desktop1 and the laptop where Puppy was
upgraded to 2.10r1 vs the clean install on desktop2

I have also tried more things on desktop1 and the laptop.

Winecfg was installed by the .pup to /usr/local/

[MU]

Winecfg (/usr/local) is a script that runs /usr/bin/winecfg

Sad to say XINE in 2.12 is broken.

2.12 HDD install on desktop.

Wine-0.9.22 (opera/flash, mime, and c-drive/wordview).

Will not play a .rm video that has been working.

Crashes as before on several online children's video sites.

Tried several children's learning CD's: Clicking on some generated a small window that flashed on the screen then nothing, another one went partially through install but when the C drive was selected for install it crashed.
