Suse linux

[Neological]

Hello i am trying to install and run Wine on OpenSuse 11.2.
It errors me and ask for an infinite amount of files it needs to run properly.
Is there a package i can download which support wine and other applikations?

You mean its *****ing about DLLs?

Your best bet is to just copy the dlls over from a windows system. That's how I fixed it.

I don't know if its the DLLs. They mostly are named 'lib' something. I will try and copy the DLLs

What do you have for installed repositories? Usually, dependencies will self resolve. Make sure you have an SuSE oss repo and packman at minimum (mirrors are okay).

You might also want to add http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Emulators:/Wine/openSUSE_11.1/ (Adjust for your OpenSuSE version) for the latest binary build.

I read about repo and packman. how does they work. Can i just like download them somewhere or do i use downthemall. To tell you the truth i cant figure it out.

[scathefire]

you add them in yast, as a software repository

Now I "think" I have installed packman and repo in yast. How do I install and run Wine. I have tried to install it but i cant find it. How does I use it?

I installed all possible repositories. know i just have to figure out the next problem. How to install and run wine. Am i suppose to compile something? What am I missing?

No no no please do not have too many repositories this is not a good thing!!!!!!

You will get conflicting packages and all sorts of problems.
