This video will show you how you can run almost any Linux only program as if it were a Windows program. You will need a program called andLinux (freeware) to do this. Once installed, I will show you how to set up a linux music program called Amarok.

  • This is what I was looking for

    Thank you

  • @PivotMan255 That's not correct because andLinux runs a complete Linux kernel as a service. WINE is "just" an implementation of the Windows API. This is an essential difference because with andLinux you have a full Linux, including all core elements, under the hood.

  • It'd be easier if you just set up a virtual machine and install a Linux Distribution there. This program is like WINE for Linux, just inverted, so some programs won't run, ya know.

    Just sayin'

  • @GoldeneyeDog Yeah, that's what I thought too.

  • Only 32bit = useless.

  • can you do a tutorial about running linux application in Windows 7? the tutorial you created about this is not effective in Vista and 7. the tutorial you made was created in WindowsXP environment and that maybe applicable only in XP. this is a favor dude.

  • @TazeTSchnitzel in this case im runing ubuntu in vmware ive read some forms maybe could have been something diff named but anywaysz this was the issue and the result after was fixed i will look for the form again to get the exact name of this

  • @JAYJAY1787 PhysX doesn't block seamless mode.

  • @TazeTSchnitzel i have a alienware m17x that came with a nvida 260m, when installing this card's drivers there is something with in the drivers called physx that is blocking this mode from working when i was installing these drivers over again i just simply left that physx out and installed the rest and worked fine dont know what other graphics cards have that can be blocking seemless mode but the info should help another

  • @JAYJAY1787 I use VirtualBox in seamless mode myself.

    What do you mean Graphics Card blocks it?
