[RurouniKalain]

Thanks, simple enough. Got on 11.10 from 9.04 and WINE 1.3.25 (I think) and got Bejeweled 3 on there for my Dad's netbook so we. That last little bit was what I needed about right clicking. :P Simple, but woo.

[Revstoningpot]

how about if i don't steal the game and have the actual disc this is worthless info

[e36maf3]

@Revstoningpot You should be able to install from CD too, it's made for legit apps.

[bobalazs]

curses, the only thing you left out is how to run the damn thing after its been installed!

[kinogroov]

what about if I got my games on the steam how I will run them ?

[navi1007]

[JaMarrcusRaychardd]

[camaro4759]

u using mac or windows kind look like windows/

[PiexlHD]

@camaro4759 it's ubuntu, free operating system

[ProfessionalGam3rz]

@camaro4759 It actually looks more like mac cayse hes using ubuntu whioch is a linux based OS like mac os aka OSX.

[JeepsterDare]

Alright.  Say instead of a game, I wanted to use a graphics program, like Paint Tool Sai. Would you know a workaround for this in WINE?

[maisanfabregas]

thank so much man you really helped me

thanks aloot !

[MrZambra]

ey thanks for the video,, you speak exactly as Philip Seymour Hoffman you got his voice.....

[wuta45]

why not just download vmware for free, virtualize OS, and run it while you're in linux

.

[navytx73]

Dirextx 10 problems? how do i fix that , guild wars works great and wow. but games like call of duty does not work

[navytx73]

Dirextx 10 problems? how do i fix that

[stefffjunior]

i get how to open the games but where did you download them?

[FedoraFTW]

@stefffjunior install them from disk, may want to try the demo before getting it. Wine is not that good and there is usually major to minor problems when doing this. just stick to windows for your gaming needs.

[bimb89ers]

so if I have the cd, what do i dodo?

[soopa9]

@bimb89ers theory: Dont autoplay it, open it and run the setup exe just like he did with halol, this is a theory, try it out, wont hurt.

[zachfaulks15]

How to i install The sims 2 on Ubuntu?

[FedoraFTW]

@zachfaulks15 just get windows if you want to game, Wine is a hassle.

[zachfaulks15]

@FedoraFTW yea i could can i just download it off the internet like i did with Ubuntu and not get busted

[Loyalt0None]

thats easy

[Coolguy10890]

How can I play the program: Penguin Storm 10.2.exe I right click and click Open with Wine windows program loader but it NEVER OPENS!!!

[FedoraFTW]

@Coolguy10890 some games don't like wine.

[Coolguy10890]

@FedoraFTW No no I right click on almost EVERY program that ONLY works for Windows (Wine Windows loader) and Wine Windows Program loader never opens!

[Nightfly1957]

@FedoraFTW : Try Wine-Doors

[shadow444222]

@Coolguy10890 it probly is having an error and quiting for some reason

[bboybram]

sudo apt-get install wine

Then your password and then open .exe file with wine

From there it's like windows

K, Now Show Me How To Install The ROYAL pain in the neck Fallout 3

[FedoraFTW]

can't show you how, linux is not for gaming.

you can get wine to play fallout3 and crysis and shit. but u gotta tweak wine.

i just dual boot linux/win7

[Esuld]

I installed it w/ playonlinux, and it still doesn't work??

[FedoraFTW]

install wine, not playonlinux

what distro are you using?

[hereguy813]

It Need More Ram Than Needed in xp because it do more process bec it is not specific for running exe that is the xchat guys words to me when ask same question

[ccc771]

you didnt show the game playing in Wine anyway getting WIne to work successfully for me has been real hard i dont recommend it to Newbies like myself go for Cedgra instead its the best out there in my opinion... Not that im trying to push any Company here but saves a lot of frustration trying to get Wine to work properly you really need to be an intermediate or experienced Linux user to get wine going if you dont believe me check out the Wine website!youll know what im talking about!

[hereguy813]

No fedora is 4 GB this is too alot i will use ubuntu 650 mb :D:D:D

[FedoraFTW]

fedora is 650MB too.

i believe your thinking of the DVD, not the CD =p

[hereguy813]
