http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21236
Summary: I can't install any windows xp application with wine-1.1.32-1.fc12(x86-64) Product: Wine Version: unspecified Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: fanisatt@yahoo.gr
I have installed to my PC the Fedora 12 64bit OS (new and clean installation - no update) . I also have installed NVIDIA drivers and they are working fine with most Linux applications (3d or not). I installed wine (version 1.1.32-1) with the fedora 12 package manager, but it seems like there is a big problem to me . I say it because last year, on the same computer, I used wine with fedora 11 (64 bit) and it was very good. I could install a lot of windows applications-games and they was working good. I don't understand what is the problem now. I can't install any windows xp application with wine !!! Very simply wine doesn't work at all for me. Please help.

--- Comment #4 from fanisatt fanisatt@yahoo.gr 2010-01-03 14:03:42 --- Thanks a lot for your response. According to my package manager this is the "wine" homepage, so I decided to report the problem here. I am sorry if I made a mistake. I am not an experienced Linux user and I don't know how to make "wine" to work with 32bit libraries, but anyway I reported the problem to the Fedora people. I am sure that they will not "strike" me . Oh it's only a joke. But.....let me declare something as a Linux beginner. I believe that the sensitive point with the open source future is the dissemination of productive forces and resources in order to make and maintain a lot of different distributions with different demands. Today there is no time for a lot of people to study and understand the functional details of any software project. So, we need the open source software to feel free , but freedom is also the systems compatibility and interoperability . So, all you as experienced people in Linux , try to remember these last words please. Thanks again.

Fedora is providing 'wine64', which is 64-bit wine, and doesn't yet work very well. You need to use 'wine32', and tell fedora to not install 'wine64' by default, or give it a big warning that it won't work yet.
