Wine Doesn't Load Anything?

Post by khoraski »

It wouldn't load Synthasia, so I tried a couple other softwares, all wouldn't work. So then I tried running Notepad with Wine and it still didn't work!

I don't know what's wrong. It's not giving me an error, it's just not doing anything at all.

Pick a program and run it from command line. That should give you some
kind of error message when it fails. If you post that output to the list
it will give people a starting point to help you track down down the
problem.

I believe you need to update your video drivers and use hardware opengl.

Notepad gave me:

You are trying to run a 64 bit notepad in a 32 bit wine prefix

I don't know how to update my video drivers or use opengl, and I just used "sudo apt-get install wine." I don't know how to use the 64bit prefix.
