I installed linux Mint while i was in China for work and had quite a big trouble in having QQ working on linux.
I didn't find any guide explaining how to make it work, so i tought that maybe someone was in the same condition of me and needed help.
Tried downloading the beta linux client of QQ: no use.
Tried to install as a wine application and following all the guides araound: stuck at login screen.
Then I found this: WineQQ2012-20120719-Longene.deb (you can download it from here: http://www.longene.org/forum/viewtopic. ... &sk=t&sd=a).
This will give you a functioning chinese QQ client, which, for the rest of the world (me included) could be quite hard to read.
Download the package and install.
Start QQ in chinese to check if it works.
Now type:
Code: Select all
pluma /opt/longene/qq2012/qq2012.sh
Code: Select all
INEDEBUG=-all env WINEPREFIX=$WINEPREFIX_DIR $WINE_DIR/bin/wine $WINEPREFIX_DIR/drive_c/Program\ Files/Tencent/QQ/Bin/QQ.exe
Code: Select all
INEDEBUG=-all env WINEPREFIX=$WINEPREFIX_DIR $WINE_DIR/bin/wine $WINEPREFIX_DIR/drive_c/Program\ Files/Tencent/QQIntl/Bin/QQ.exe
Code: Select all
env WINEPREFIX=$WINEPREFIX_DIR $WINE_DIR/bin/wine $WINEPREFIX_DIR/drive_c/Program\ Files/Tencent/QQ/Bin/QQ.exe >$HOME/Longene_qq2012.log 2>&1
Code: Select all
env WINEPREFIX=$WINEPREFIX_DIR $WINE_DIR/bin/wine $WINEPREFIX_DIR/drive_c/Program\ Files/Tencent/QQIntl/Bin/QQ.exe >$HOME/Longene_qq2012.log 2>&1
Put the folder QQIntl which contains all the files of QQ in
Code: Select all
.longene/qq2012/drive_c/Program Files/Tencent
Now you will have to folers in there, a QQ folder and a QQIntl folder.
Start QQ from the icon in you menu... and... QQ is now in english, and it works (at least the basic functions for chatting).
I tried it on Linux Mint 13 MATE, x64 in dual boot with win7 and it works, QQ International version is 1.4.
Hope somebody will found it useful, if double posted or wrong place, sorry for the error.
Best regards,
Mtk
