WINE for Darwin and Mac OS X

Does this software package run on other platforms like Linux?

You may want to try contacting a WINE (proper) dev list, or #winehq on freenode (IRC).

I don't have the means to test this problem here, plus I'm not the best when it comes to threading/context issues. I can only say that I have run simple Win32 OpenGL programs using Darwine and Apple's X window server.

How are you invoking Darwine? What Windows program are you trying to run?

The "bunch of codes" may be the most important detail for working out exactly
what is going wrong, BTW. I most likely won't be able to interpret them, but
people over at WineHQ would be able to.

If you have an Intel processor then some other stuff will work, but
there is some Mac-specific unimplemented functionality whose absence
prevents a lot of programs from working at the moment.

Obviously if you're on PowerPC then only programs compiled for PowerPC
will work, as an emulator has not been integrated with Darwine.

So have you installed X11?

I have exactly the same problem, the weird thing is it actual worked =20
once, and then i deleted the .wine dir, and it hasn't
been able to recreate it. It just hangs (infinitely loops), at the =20
importing registry screen in the winehelper, when choosing 'configure =20=

wine'.

here is a list of the running process while it's infinitely looping.

So i hope this helps. If you need me to test anything else, i'm more =20
than help to try different things. I've tryied deleteing the prefs =20
file, but they didn't seem
to help at all.

I'm a little confused as to the problem you're having.

It sounds like you need to run "CellTrak", a Windows specific  
application.

As you probably know, Darwine is in an early stage of development.  
Many programs do work on Intel based Macs, but right now, almost  
nothing works on PPC Macs. In fact, the developers of Darwine append  
"DP" the the version to indicate "Developer's Preview". What this  
means is that Darwine is not ready for prime-time. It's for  
developers at this point.

Even those few Windows apps that work on the new Intel Macs under  
Darwine have some problems, and there are plenty of apps that just  
don't work.

It sounds like Darwine probably isn't you answer right now. Darwine  
will absolutely do what you need some day, and I wish I had that date  
for you. For now, it looks like you'll need a PC.

Doug,

Your options at this point are Virtual PC, Qemu, and Bochs. The  
latter two are both slower than Virtual PC, which is not saying a lot  
since Virtual PC is VERY slow.

I'd suggest just getting your hands on a cheap PC and using the  
Microsoft Remote Desktop client to connect to it. You can run a  
variety of different virtualization apps under Linux, which has the  
added advantage of your Microsoft environment not being able to bring  
down your entire PC.

I don't think Virtual PC supports more than 2 GB of RAM either.

Douglas, if you need a free emulator then QEMU is the best option out there
right now. Also, when you say you need to get this software working "on
something other than a PC", do you mean you need it to work on any OS other
than Windows? Some more information on exactly what problem you are trying to
solve, and the constraints you are working under, would be helpful.

Hello,

This message means that WineHelper could not create the task 
"/Applications/Darwine/Wine.bundle".
In the menu "Preferences..." (command + ",") you have to change where 
"wine" is, with the "Choose" Button.
When you see the dialog box push "command + shift + G" keys, then you 
have to write the correct path 
"/Applications/Darwine/Wine.bundle/Contents/bin/wine".

It works for me, I hope it will help you.

Excuse my English.

If it is true, I doubt that anyone who knows that they are working on
it could talk about it.

I don't think any of the KHTML developers knew about Apple before they
released Safari.
