regedit dont work and gecko dont install

Post by bochenekgsx »

wine 1.1
ubuntu 8.04 (64bit)
amd64x2 5200
2gbram
nvidia 8600gt


Regedit and wine regedit do NOTHING in terminal

and

i'm installing WOW right now, and it keeps trying to install gecko, i click install, and it looks like it installs, but does nothing. Each time i do an update, it asks the same thing over again. I looked around for a way to manual instal, but the one that was written for feisty does not seem to work for me.

step 3 does not work for me for some reason.. here's the terminal output:

stephan@stephan-desktop:~$ mv wine_gecko ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/gecko/0.1.0/
mv: cannot stat `wine_gecko': No such file or directory
stephan@stephan-desktop:~$ mkdir -p ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/gecko/0.1.0/
stephan@stephan-desktop:~$ mv wine_gecko ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/gecko/0.1.0/
mv: cannot stat `wine_gecko': No such file or directory
stephan@stephan-desktop:~$


please help on both counts :)




EDIT: regedit is working now....but the gecko thing still is not

There was a regression in 1.1.0 that affected installation of wine-gecko: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14109
For now you can install it manually:

Code: Select all

wget http://superb-east.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/wine/wine_gecko-0.1.0.cab
cabextract -d ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/gecko/0.1.0/ wine_gecko-0.1.0.cab
