Question #70652 on Ubuntu changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/70652
skierpage proposed the following answer: I have the same problem in Kubuntu 9.04. The .wine directory is in your home directory, yet the "Browse C:\Drive" menu item uses the non-existent path $HOME/Documents/.wine The workaround is to simply navigate to $HOME/.wine/dosdevices/c: in a file manager like Dolphin. The launchpad bug is Bug #223989 , with a few duplicates. This problem is covered on the Wine forum in http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?p=17873 The desktop entry /usr/share/applications/wine-browsedrive.desktop has Exec=xdg-open .wine/dosdevices/c: This is a relative path, but the behavior of the command `xdg-open` given a relative path is undocumented and unspecified. On Kubuntu it creates a file:/// URL relative to $HOME/Documents , and you get this bug. The fix is to edit /usr/share/applications/wine-browsedrive.desktop (you will need to become root with sudo or such) and give the absolute path to the directory. I think the $HOME environment variable is better than the '~' those reports use for your home directory, thus change the line to Exec=xdg-open $HOME/.wine/dosdevices/c: This worked for me. -- You received this question notification because you are a member of UF Unanswered Posts Team, which is an answer contact for Ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuforums-unanswered Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuforums-unanswered More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
