You installed Wine in a VM? That can’t be right. Wine is a windows Emulator and allows some Windows apps to run in Linux but iy is hit or miss if it works for any given Windows app. A VM will allow you to install the actual Windows OS on the Linux system it is nearly 100% reliable although VMs will consume quite a lot of resources so it might not be good to run a VM on a computer that is also running a machine tool in real time. Hardware is cheap, I’d buy a different computer for Windows or at least not try and run Windows and LCNC art the same time on one computer. The Vm approach should work but Wine is an imported emulation of Windoews. > > has anyone done this before and got some tips? > > i am playing with some really cool cam software ecam and want to try > running it through wine on the cnc controller > > just seeing what i can get working currently and having a play > > but would love to ask the linux gurus about it > > cheers > > Andrew > > _______________________________________________ > Emc-users mailing list > Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
