Description:

Wine is a compatibility layer for running windows applications on linux. applications are run at full speed without the need of cpu emulation. wine does not require microsoft windows, however it can use native system dll files in place of its own if they are available.

this meta-package always depends on the latest version of wine.

4 I am new to Linux Mint. I had trouble installing Wine with my package manager. I finally go Wine Tricks to install. I like the versatility. I wish there was a better uninstall. When programs like I tunes don't work it messes up the registry. You have to clear all the programs or manually edit the registry. I was able to install Glary Utilites and run it's registry editor, which did work.

3 It makes me think of the training wheels on bikes. If you're not a gamer, embrace the full Linux experience and cut the crap. I tried Wine and PlayonLinux, back when I decided to keep MS Word inside a Mint machine, because I'm so damn used to it. Not worth the trouble. The installation processes were a pain, and the results were never fully stable. Both W. and P. ended up breaking under pressure, or after updates or upgrades. It's too much effort that should be redirected to integral Linux solutions.

3 WineHQ Says Portal 1 runs great. It doesn't run great. It gets to the opening screen and crashes the entire Linux Mint 11, even if Wine is set for virtual window. I just wish it had better support for games, none of my games work even when WineHQ says it will.

The most exciting is that I can use some freeware vst instruments with LMMS.

5 Good possibility to run favourite programs. If this emulation can't cope then you can always use VirtualBox to run whole OS under your linux

2 Most programs have complications and many bug when run through Wine; getting programs to work with Wine is almost an art form. This application is impressive, but has a long way to go before being truly useful.

5 More than OSs, people uses applications and only then they use an OS. That is the role of WINE, to free Applications and thus reduce non-OS issues in OS usage. And it does it well!

5 Love it. At the very least, it saves you a lot of avoidable reboots into Windows and provides a very lightweight alternative to a VM. Plus, you'd be surprised how many applications run in it!
