Then again beyond some games that I shouldn't be playing with I have never had anything I have thrown at wine not work.I have always used the wine hosted Ubuntu repo since it started prior to that I didn't use it much, still don't: deb http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt edgy main
But yes I get all the apps I try on the taskbar, mainly InternetExplorer and the ATO's tax app, but some games I play as well. They also show up in alt+tab. Obviously replace the edgy bit above with your distro name, ie Gutsy, Hardy etc. On Mon, Apr 28, 2008 at 12:21 PM, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > I have some apps without a Linux version around and need to run them in > > WINE. > > They seem to run mostly ok but they don't show up on the task bar... > > and if I minimize it I can't Atl+TAB and get it back, though ps -aux > > shows it's there and running. > > > > Anyone know what to do to fix this? > > > > > I have never had much luck with Wine in running non-Linux applications - > there seems to be far too much fiddling about to do. > > I use Crossover Linux (the commercial arm of Wine) where everything I need > works out of the box.
