Chapter 1: Installation 1.1: Getting Linux Chapter 1 video on Youtube Testing is currently done on Ubuntu 13.10 destribution. You can download Ubuntu here: http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop I'm going to assume a basic knowledge of Linux for this guide. If you're new to all of this I would reco...

Ok so I've put XY through pretty much a day of hard use and it hasn't locked up on me since. However, I did avoid some known traps (such as an arbitrary bug that "sort of" happens when switching column 'size' from kB to MB). The farther I dig into Xy the more oddities I find. For example, ...

Thanks 40k for running all these tests. Good to know it's working in certain conditions. I removed ubuntu only recently and could have tested this bug. Will try to reinstall this weekend. Any information is welcome. At the moment the beta builds for 13.70 seem to be holding up nicely. I'm currently...

Well looks like I got here just in time
http://clonezilla.org/

Clonezilla boots a minimal unix environment and uses dd to clone your hard disks.
Stop paying for this kind of software.

I don't see how this could be a problem.

Bug is now confirmed: switching the data size columns from kB to mB causes a xyplorer to crash. Switching them back stops the plist@21 error from appearing!

:appl: I see and I believe! You still get the error at startup? More interesting developments this morning! So the standard start-up error is still there as you can see below. However, I have a theory the solution may be much easier than anticipated. http://i.imgur.com/xDvhQQt.png I have also been ...

And thanks to some wizardry with Custom File Associations, we now have native application launching from inside Xyplorer!

http://i.imgur.com/dIuioxg.png Still making progress... Current installation process as follows: Xyplorer on Wine 1.7 - Set your $WINEPREFIX location of your choice - $ winecfg - $ winetricks vb6run - $ winetricks allfonts - $ winecfg (you will probably need to set dpi above 96, especially on small...

I'd go for Custom Columns.
Fits in with Custom File Associations and Custom File Icons.

I won't do anything now. I don't have any time left in my day to spare for WINE thoughts. But (contradicting what i said above :whistle: ) I think I see now how to improve 13.70 a little to make it as good as 13.60 again under WINE. :) Wait for tomorrow's beta... Newest beta works fine again!!! :cl...

OK, thanks, but such an extra call is too costy for 99.9999% of my users. I'd rather add a tweak Wine=1 . :) Or one could add something to startup.ini or so. But only if some Ubuntu users start knocking at my door waving euro bills... :) Hang on, you could just do that though. Xy is a native Window...

Is there any way for XYplorer to know that it is running in WINE now? http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?p=25906 It seems there is: I finded solution, just load kernel32.dll and try to find there function wine_get_unix_file_name() I ckecked just now on wine 1.1.22 ubuntu 9.04, it works perfectly...

What error message are you getting now? In fact, it's still the same error message. I was mistaken. Xy loads completely, but when it's finished there are no "close" or "minimize" buttons, the same that all windows apps have. After that it locks up and I can't click anything. It ...
