Wine on Crouton XFCE #121
Comments
Hmm, I did iirc and it worked. will try later today. ron |
Hi rminnich, Can you provide me the repository that you installed this? I added 'sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa' but won't let me install wine1.5 Thanks! |
If I have to compile it on my Samsung, please provide all the Terminal commands form starting libraries to downloading the proper files. |
WINE does not and will not work on the ARM Chromebook, as Windows executables are i386/x64, and WINE runs them directly (it is not an emulator). It works fine on x86-based Chromebooks using the version in the repositories. |
just throwing it out there (haven't tried myself) -- what about qemu? i.e. arm-based chromebook -> crouton -> qemu -> wine -> x86-based windows binary ? do you think this might work (e.g. on something like samsung chromebook XE303C12 with 2 gig ram) ... ? |
That would be unusably slow. Unless you need some very basic CLI utilities or something, you're not going to want to go that route. |
Yeah, I think you're right, it will probably be very very slooow... I am not sure how these youtube demos of running x86 GUI binaries on linux arm arch comare to the samsung's series 3 chromebook processor specs: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9G06JmL9mkQ and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVYlrv0kbdA |
That's way more responsive than I would have imagined. Try it out! |
I know it's an old thread, but here's hoping... I have Trusty & XFCE running via Crouton on an HP14 - Haswell chipset. I installed WINE via the command line, but I don't see the app in anything, anywhere. No context menu, when I open the .exe that I'm trying to run, I get the application finder and WINE doesn't seem to be anywhere. Thanks! ~wellrest |
will wine work on Acer c7 on crouton xfce... sorry im just poping up total newbie wannabe XD Ps.. i added on to my hard drive with a Xbox 360 60g... not that is relevant. -Nathan |
Can someone help me to install wine on this Crouton XFCE? I'm a beginner when it comes to linux as a PC. Any help with terminal commands and pre-pakages that need to be installed would be appreciated. I'm running into all sorts of issues trying to install from the basic instructions and anything I could find on forums.
