How to Run Windows Apps in Linux

Wine is an open source project, on the surface, seemed to offer surprising: the ability to run Windows applications under Linux (or any other open source operating system). To this end, it will attempt to re-establish the open-source Windows API layer.

Finally you Have the opportunity to run the Windows program; there are no open-source analogues: speed up, or Flash Chief Secretary for Administration. And all the games.

The reality is somewhat complicated. Yes, wine is a very good run on Windows software and games. However, in order to maximize the use of it, you'll need to crack. Under normal circumstances, so that the delivery is a black art, and not new.

Fortunately, there are several off-the-shelf setup wizard to help solve the problem. These scripts are written by people who have done by the hackers. There are four projects, in particular, are worth mentioning are: cross-Cedega, wine doors, and PlayOnLinux.

From the game and the standard version of CrossOver is a proprietary and commercial projects set up by the same developers behind the wine. So, it is surprising the best choice for life. It will increase the cost of your advertising, but some sponsorship money into the development of wine.

Cedega is another patent and commercial project, this time primarily for gamers. Most accounts, this is the best choice, if you just want to play games, and the development of the wine code Cedega obvious hacker’s better results. This will cost you, however, the basis of the user, rather than one-time licensing fees.
Wine PlayOnLinux doors and are open source and free, so you may wish to try each to find the best suited to your needs. I take it, let us take a look at below. These are Ubuntu's 9.04 instructions.

Wine, and then install any application, this is a good idea to install Microsoft's core Web fonts. This is the usual suspects in the fonts of a typical Windows installation (font, Times New Roman, etc.) and many Windows applications expect to find them. Things they may not look odd.

You can also install any copy. Trust Fund for the files from the Windows installation, or by installing the msttcorefonts package. Font does not provide a part of this package of measures, but some applications may need, including the Tahoma and MS-free. You can find these all over the web if you search for. You can install them by creating a folder named. Fonts in your / home directory, and to them.
If you want to import directly from the Windows installation, you will find the font in C: \ Windows \ font’s directory. Copy all. Transcription factor file USB memory stick, create a new folder in your / home directory requests. Font (Note the period before the word font!), So that they have. It is just that. Fonts will now apply to all applications.
