OMG this looks pretty complicated...
I may give it a try if I feel brave. Quick question, I currently have a single hard drive running windows xp. When I go and install this 'Ubuntu' can it do so without losing my current windows xp installation? I am sorry if this is a silly noob question... well it is..

Go to: System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager
Go under "Settings -> Repositories" and activate all boxes in the "Ubuntu 6.10" tab. Now go to the "Third Party" tab, and click "Add"
Type: "Source"
URL: "http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt"
Distributions: "edgy"
Components: "main"
And press OK. Now Close. Now follow the nice hint from Synaptic and press "Refresh".
I have a problem with this part. I am a noob with linux, so be gentle!
When adding this repositories, the button "add this.." is not active? However after playing around, if I substitute "Source" with "Deb" the button becomes available. Why is this and what should I do?
Sorry if this is a silly Q or I have done something wrong...
Cheers,
Egor

I can't get it to work with the 64bits Edgy Eft, can't compile wine due too the 32bit lybraries of windows. Could you make a (32bi) deb file out of your installation and put it somewhere for us to download?
Thanks
Ah.. I am running the 64bit version as well. I assumed.. oh well. I think I got around my last problem (see post above) but now I am having more trouble, probably because I am running the 64bit edgy OS.
I just ran the ./configure command and it seemingly went smoothly. So I then ran the make depend && make command and it runs for about 30seconds then stops with the error:
ln: creating symbolic link `wine' to `./tools/winewrapper': Permission denied
make: *** [wine] Error 1
Any clues? I really want this to work

this problem happened also to me, but fortunatly solved .
instead to use the "sudo" command, compile the wine source and install as root ( on console command "su" then root-password ).

Strange, half my post is missing above..
My question is: What do I enter when using the "su then-root-pw" before "make depend && make" command? I really am a novice. I do not know what to type! lol

OK. I read up about setting a 'root' password. man I am confused, but I managed to do this and rerun the make and depend blah blah command again and it got further this time, stopping with a bunch of errors:
../../include/winnls.h:758: warning: `__stdcall__' attribute ignored
make[2]: *** [casemap.o] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/atom/UbuntTemp/wine-0.9.24~winehq0~ubuntu~6.10/libs/wine'
make[1]: *** [wine] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/atom/UbuntTemp/wine-0.9.24~winehq0~ubuntu~6.10/libs'
make: *** [libs] Error 2
This is a snippet.
So, what I want to ask is has anyone got this to work on the 64bit version of edgy? If not, how do I completely remove this OS so I may reinstall the non-64bit version?

What a day!
So I removed ubuntu 64bit completely and got a fresh install of the normal edgy i386 going. Then went and jumped through a dozen hoops getting my USB modem to work (what a hack that is, from a windows perspective).
So I have the OS and internet working.
Then I ran through Dencal Copperhead's instructions to a 'T'. I will post more information tomorrow, but basically eve loads the splash screen for a while and I get some errors in the terminal and then it closes.
My specs:
AMD +3500 64 CPU
Nvidia 7600GS 256MB Graphics
Some Nforce mainboard (can't recall)
Is there anything I would need to do differently from those instructions based on my spec machine?
Got to sleep.
Zzzz

Dear all,
I am stuck with the splash screen for about a minute, then it closes. In the terminal, it reports just one line as follows:
fixme:process:IsWow64Process (0xffffffff 0x33fba4) stub!
Any one able to assist me with this?
