Mount Manager Error

Post by WV2MJR »

When I install the latest version of wine and click on Drives I get this error message " failed to connect to the mount manager, the drive configuration cannot be edited". However, when I install Wine 1.1.0.0 I get no error message. I really don't want to run Wine 1.1.0.0 because Wine 1.1.2.0 has tons of fixes over Wine 1.1.0.0.

Any tips/solution?

I am running Ubuntu 9.04 x64 (installed it from DVD), ext4

There are no such versions. Check the number of periods(dots).

Try removing / renaming ~/.wine directory after you upgrade to latest Wine version. You will have to reinstall your programs again.

Then something is broken in the package you're using. Report a bug to
the packager.
