wine 使用日志 on ubuntu-desktop

Updated at: February 23, 2017

Most linux player use wine to run windows application, especially games(Blizzard..) wine is a windows sandbox(actually not monitor, it can hurt your original linux system in fact) which can run on a POSIX OS, also NOT virtual box(vmware/virtual box/parallel desktop)

install wine

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386 
# which let your 64bit OS run 32bit app(i386,x86),in fact, most of windowns application can't work normally on wine in 64bin.

wine basic

#if wine is ready
>wine --verison

##download windows app, e.g.battle.net
>wine Battle.net-Setup.exe
#at first run,~/.wine folder contain enviroment config
#your can also create different env folder. e.g. 32bit
>WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.wine_prefix32" WINEARCH=win32 wine wineboot
#switch env config with variable $WINEPREFIX
>WINEPREFIX="foler, default is ~/.wine“ wine xxx.exe
