ikernel error

Post by jeffneedle »

Hi. Using wine 1.8.7-2. Several apps have installed nicely, but one I'm trying to install gives me an ikernel not found. What's this all about? Is there a way to fix it? Thanks!

First, try with wine-3.x and see if the error is fixed. Your version is already ancient.

As a relatively low tech person, I must rely on my distros repos to give me my Wine software. 3.x isn't anywhere in sight. How does an inexperienced user go about getting 3.x installed? Thanks.

What distro are you using?

Pardus Linux. But I've decided to switch to another distro -- they have help mainly in Turkish. I haven't decided where to go yet. Thanks, sorry for the bother.

Maybe you could use the Debian Stable backports Wine packages in Pardus
