ack! too much code! lol =P
If you go about a hundred lines down (i'm estimating that number =P) , you see the line "./configure: line 3081: g++: command not found" ... looks to me like you need to install g++ ...
with these log files, always look for the first thing that goes wrong.

used synaptic yesterday to install wine in Cassandra
no problem,
needed to run a few windows only mySQL 5.0 tools
ran the windows msi installer flawlessly

[elws1987]

oops.. sorry for the long codes...
i thought the whole log file was needed... >_<

anyway, i have shorten the log file...
planning to fix the problem part by part

my apologies for the inconvenience

ermm.. i found the g++ in the synaptic package manager...
but there is alot of versions of g++...
which 1 should i install?/

there are g++, g++-2.95, g++-3.3
and many others

synaptic will automatically try to automagically resolve all the despondencies it needs

[elws1987]

i magically got wine installed n running now...
but i cant use wine to run flash =.=

when i install flash with wine... it just stops half way n not move anymore...

i tried installing it on my windows os(in the same pc)
it works... errr...duhh =P

anyway, i try running the installed flash on linux mint using wine... it says my flash encountered an error n it wants me to reinstall flash

[D1Wayne]

try coping the windows->program->adobe->flash folder into the
/home/YourUserId/.wine/drive_c/Program Files
folder, then
MintMenu -->All->wine file

in wine file click on (most like c drive,
locate the exe file double click it

[elws1987]

i have tried the way u proposed... but it cant work too..
it says "A problem was detected with your application. Please reinstall this software to correct the problem."

[D1Wayne]

you can piddle in the winee forums, but when i searched for adobe flash,
they all seem to wnat Internet Explore for the latest flash

[elws1987]

thanks alot for the links...

anyway,

i found a solution on this link http://blog.publicidadpixelada.com/how- ... tu-dapper/

however im stuck at the last step which is the recode part....

wslee1987@wslee1987-laptop:~$ recode ucs-2..ascii macromedia.reg

recode: macromedia.reg failed: Untranslatable input in step `ISO-10646-UCS-2..ANSI_X3.4-1968'

when i type in the recode command.. i get this error

[D1Wayne]

just install recode from synaptics
went to wifes machine exported macromedia.reg
copy it to
/home/userID

Code: Select all

recode ucs-2..ascii macromedia.reg

no problemo here

[D1Wayne]

a couple of thoughts, where did you get your recode from?
second possible damaged registry on xp side so you are getting some trash included in that file,

[elws1987]

i got my recode from synaptic package manager...
installed it from there...

REGEDIT4



[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Macromedia]



[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Macromedia\Common Files]

@=""

"emlaunch.dll"="c:\\Program Files\\Common Files\\Macromedia\\emlaunch.dll"

"extensions.dll"="c:\\Program Files\\Common Files\\Macromedia\\extensions.dll"

"gemstone.dll"="c:\\Program Files\\Common Files\\Macromedia\\gemstone.dll"



[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Macromedia\Extension Manager]



[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Macromedia\Extension Manager\1.7]

@=""

"Default Editor For"="mxi,mxp"

"InstallPath"="c:\\Macromedia\\Extension Manager\\"

"Language"="En"

this is my registry file...
i tried reinstalling recode and re-export macromedia.reg
and it still doesnt work
this thing always come out

recode: macromedia.reg failed: Untranslatable input in step `ISO-10646-UCS-2..ANSI_X3.4-1968'

sorry for the long stuff again
thanks in advance for helping me out

[elws1987]

i got the registry file working already...
i finally know what is the problem of the registry problem...
i need to export it from windows regedit itself
i got it working already

i tried using "$ wine falsh.exe" but it says the flashresource.dll unavailable and requires me to reinstall flash

however, i open the flash.exe at the wine file
i manage to open it
thanks alot for your time in looking through my problem and guide me
thanks god bless you

[D1Wayne]

glad you were able to resolve your final hurdle
