Running wine on the linuxgrid requires a little setup because of 2 problems:
A: The DISPLAY is not local and most fonts are "invisible". Before actually using it, do:
- Create a file settings.reg in you HOME directory with the following 3 lines:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\X11 Driver]
"ClientSideWithRender"="N"
"ClientSideWithCore"="N" - Run wine regedit settings.reg
This will take up to one minute and will write out a lot of stuff to the terminal. - When it stop writing hit ENTER a few times to see that the command has completed.
- Optional run winecfg
- Start an application by running wine myapp.exe
B: In the shell which start wine you must unset the ulimit restrction for stack size, i.e.
ulimit -s unlimited
wine
