[Closed - reverted to 32bit LL+Wine] Is 64bit Wine OK and what version is in LL
#1
I'm about to install Wine from the LL 1.0.8 64 bit disco to run an old Windows 95 32bit application (that I've been running under Windows 98 and then XP OK)

Reading WineHQ FAQ at http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#head-0bae04b4...acb6f367ff

Quote:7.2. How do I create a 32 bit wineprefix on a 64 bit system?

At present there are some significant bugs that prevent many 32 bit applications from working in a 64 bit wineprefix. To work around this, you can create a new 32 bit wineprefix using the WINEARCH environment variable. In a terminal, type:

So does LL 1.0.8 come with the 32bit or the 64bit Wine and is this 7.2 of the FAQ still relevant? Which Wine is recommended for my situation?

(I have 2 other Windows programs I need to install: one 32bit written for XP and the other a 16 bit for Windows 3.11 WfG that has continued to work under 98 and XP.)
