How to install Wine on Acer Aspire One?

Can anyone help with this? New to Linux and find Wine HQ a bit confusing. Which distribution should i use for example.
Thanks in advance.

 

Open Terminal:

Code:

yum install wine

if not then

Code:

sudo yum install wine

I believe this thread would be better named "How to install Wine on Linpus"

 

If you want the *newest* version, you will need to compile it yourself. That is slightly harder than just installing the version in the fedora 8 repository (which is what you do if you run the "sudo yum install wine" command) - but if you want a walkthrough can be written. Or may even already be present here on these very forums

 

You know. After asking question about installing wine idea of compiling source code is a bit ruthless. Don't you think??

 

Nah. Best way to teach a child to swim is to throw it in the water

 

Then if you through a child out of a plane it will learn to fly?

 

Who knows. Maybe...

 

Fantastic. Thanks for your help on this. I will try out. Might even get to compiling a package in future

 

I guarantee you will.. But at the beginning I believe much better for you will be to use already compiled package... Have fun then!
