Usage
Set-up
In OnDemand Desktop app, run the following command:
module load wine/version
Using Wine
Please note that for the versions 3.0.2, 4.0.3 and 5.1 , Wine are built with --enable-win64 and so they cannot run Windows 32-bit binaries. You can run the following command to execute a Windows 64-bit binary:
wine64 /path/to/window_64bit_exe
Starting with 6.0, Wine is built with Mono and Gecko. We recommend to run wineboot -u to set up these libraries in your wine prefix.
Use other directory for C:\
You can change the default wine prefix $HOME/.wine to other directories:
mkdir -p $TMPDIR/my_wine_tmp module load wine/6.0 export WINEPREFIX=$TMPDIR/my_wine_tmp wine wineboot -u wine winecfg
