content: I want to start off by saying that this may not be the best place to ask this question, but I figure this might be the best place to run into someone who had the same problem.My work has everyone use Linux or Mac OS, I am using a Linux machine with a slightly modified version of ubuntu. I am trying to tun TINA-TI through wine, however when I type:wine Tina90-TIen.exeInto the command prompt it gives me an error saying that it can't find a module. I know this is vague but I am at home now and can't get the specific error, I promise I will post the whole thing in detail tomorrow. The Wine page says that it will run, has anyone else had this problem?

content: So the specific error that I am getting when I run the install file from wine in the command prompt is this:fixme:actctx:parse_depend_manifests Could not find dependent assembly L"Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls" (6.0.0.0)fixme:storage:create_storagefile Storage share mode not implemented.p11-kit: couldn't load module: /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/pkcs11/gnome-keyring-pkcs11.so: /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/pkcs11/gnome-keyring-pkcs11.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directoryAfter that an error window pops up, I attached a screen capture of it.I am using the most recent version of WINE, and I had installed nothing else with WINE at that time. I did however go ahead and install LTspice, which works fine. I will try installing the VB6 runtime and see if that fixes it.

content: I'll mess with it a bit later to check, but in the meantime, try installing the common controls library:Code:wget http://winetricks.org/winetrickssh winetricks comctl32 comctl32ocxNot sure if that's included with the VB6 runtime or not.

content: Er... what version of WINE is the "latest"? The latest stable? Latest development? Latest in the Ubuntu repo? What's the output of "wine --version"? Because I just installed it in a clean WINEPREFIX under Wine 1.4.1/Debian 7.0 x86_64 and it works perfectly as far as I can tell.

content: The best thing to do is install Windows XP in a virtual machine. Virtual box (free!) works like a charm. I tried Wine as well as a generic Windows replacement but it just isn't up to the job.

content: I'm quite sure the cure for the listed error was shown in the url i posted aboveBut then again a real XP in a Vbox engine is hard to beat.I just prefer to use wine if possible./Bingo
