Running wine application at level 3

Post by mattm591 »

I am trying to run a windows application (uTorrent) on my Suse server.

The server runs at level 3 for speed, but has a gui available to allow it to be configured easily.

I have installed and configured utorrent with wine on the gui and set it up to work with the web interface so it can be controlled remotely.

I want it to be running whenever the server is on, but I don't want to have to see the gui at level 5, instead have it running at level 3 with no visual.

When I try loading it I am presented with an error telling me that there is no display available and to check my X server and $DISPLAY.

Is there a way to run this application through wine but not have to view it.

Thanks for any help,

Matt

Thanks for the reply.

How do I use xvfb? I have openSuse and checked my installed packages. I have the xorg-x11-server-extra package installed which includes xvfb, but I tried running the command and got nothing.

How do I use it to run wine?

Thanks,

Matt
