DLLs

Post by geecee »

Wine 1.1.2
Kubuntu 8.04 Hardy

I am experimenting with Brother's Keeper (BK6) in Wine. Generally it runs quite well. To get it to run however I found it necessary to copy DLLs from the system32 folder into the main program folder. I know that other people using other distros have not done this. Is there a more elegant way of achieving the same result?

Which DLLs? Why did you copy them?

The DLLs and other files that that the BK6 program installer puts in system32. The program would not run so I thought I would give it a try and it worked. :D :D

I run Wine and BK from the K Menu using this command.
env WINEPREFIX="/home/username/.wine" wine "C:\BK6\Bk6w.exe"
