just need to pay in the currency of attention...
...so basically, just another currency i'm lacking... ;/
i use an 64-Bit Ubuntu distro with Gnome, KDE, Xfce4, and a "few other" desk-/apps/environments installed; no, i don't use Unity, or, Compiz tho... those 2 are way out of my league ....
Also Note as with everything else
Remember even tho Google is nosy as hell it can still be your friend.
Any Who here's my notes:
Install Wine and all it's dependencies first:
sudo apt-get install build-essential
sudo apt-get install automake
sudo apt-get install checkinstall
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y wine1.7 winetricks
i installed both 32 and 64 bit packages
i keep them all in separate installs.
~/.wine
~/.wine_32
~/.wine_64
when making links remember to point to the install you want
e.g.
32Bit
env WINEPREFIX=/home/USERNAME/.wine32 WINEARCH=win32 wine %f
64Bit
env WINEPREFIX=/home/USERNAME/.wine64 WINEARCH=win64 wine64 %f
if copying this remember to point to YOUR directories!
Don't forget to choose the correct Prefix in Winetricks!
PlayOnLinux:
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys E0F72778C4676186
sudo wget https://deb.playonlinux.com/playonlinux_trusty.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/playonlinux.list
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install playonlinux
i only use PlayOnLinux as a disposable windows app install.
if, it works okay in PlayOnLinux, and, doesn't show signs of CrapWare;
i'll install permanently in wine architecture.
