Wine - making sure applications run smoothly on 64bit systems

by Tinuva on Aug.20, 2009, under Linux

Usually people on 64bit Linux have more problems getting Windows applications to run via wine. Here is a list of software that could help prevent many of these:

  • 32bit libgphoto2.so.2 - Allow applications access to digital cameras
  • 32bit libhal.so.1 - Allow applications to detect CD-ROM/USB-key insertion
  • 32bit libjpeg.so.62 - Allow applications to use JPEG images - lack of this may cause black icons
  • 32bit libsane.sp.1 - Scanner support
