I'm trying to install "Microsoft Digital Image 9", and the very first thing it does is configures a few files then immediately prompts the user it's going to reboot. I press "Ok", and it then does what it just did, and pops up the same message. This can continue forever. So, I decided to try to press "Ok", then immediately enter in "wineboot". That doesn't work. So I try "wineboot -r". That also does nothing. So I try "wineboot -s", nothing happens again, so I finally do "wineboot -f" and it finally kills it. I really want to install this program, but rebooting is failing. I've installed the latest wine, and I've run the "install-wine-deps.sh" script from the wine hq site. I'm currently running Ubuntu 8.10 intrepid ibex on i386.
I think that wineboot may not be looking in the correct places to reboot wine since I'm thinking it should be looking in "/media/cdrom/startup.exe", so here's a copy of my wineboot file (it's as default as can be):
Are there any recommendations for a similar, open source, image editor?
Thanks

I think the wine-deps.sh is only if you're building wine from source unless I'm thinking of something different. How did you "install" wine? Deb package? If the program installs successfully but hangs on the end bit you could just kill the offending process thru system monitor or the terminal. It's probably msiexec/IDriver or something of nature. Rebooting is a hard habit to break.ootawata wrote:I've installed the latest wine, and I've run the "install-wine-deps.sh" script from the wine hq site.

Have you even tried running the program?

What Wine version? Have you tried removing/renaming ~/.wine directory?ootawata wrote:the very first thing it does is configures a few files then immediately prompts the user it's going to reboot.
