anyone tried wine on ubuntu server?

Post by rainland »

i just installed wine on my ubuntu server (interpid)
and when i type winecfg i get this:


Wine cannot find the FreeType font library. To enable Wine to
use TrueType fonts please install a version of FreeType greater than
or equal to 2.0.5.
http://www.freetype.org
ALSA lib seq_hw.c:457:(snd_seq_hw_open) open /dev/snd/seq failed: No such file or directory
Application tried to create a window, but no driver could be loaded.
Make sure that your X server is running and that $DISPLAY is set correctly.
err:ole:apartment_createwindowifneeded CreateWindow failed with error 1114

You have to properly install required libraries and run it from valid X-Session. In most part Wine can not run without X.
