WINE on AMD cpu

James13M · Post by **James13M** » Thu Dec 22, 2011 2:33 pm

I saw in the 'myths' section that WINE will not run on an AMD cpu. Can someone confirm or deny? I would like to run WINE, but I do not seem to have the correct cpu to use it.

I have used wine on computers with AMD CPUs for years.

That is a completly baseless claim.
(That's why it is in the myths section.)

Wine runs fine on AMD processors. I have one myself.

Thank you for your reply.

Well, actually, it's technically correct, but slightly misleading for
non-experts.
(Most users probably don't know that AMD desktop/notebook processors
belong to Intel x86 architecture.)

If the article is incorrect, then it should be changed.

I agree, it could probably be explained more clearly.

If true, then I need not hesitate to WINE Maveric [Ubuntu 10.10]. Thank you.

I have loaded and am running WINE now. The initial program running under WINE had a minor problem, one of the keyboard commands did not function, but the mouse equivalent command did work when I enabled it. Other than that, it is working fine so far. I am going to try another program later today. The next program has a proprietary driver and I do not know if that will work under WINE, but I will load the driver and program according to the instructions provided and see.

Thank you for your assistance.
