Hi all,
I'm trying to get an old copy of MS publisher working with wine. But I get these errors. Could someone give me an idea what I'm missing?
How old a version of publish? Publish 1 (or was it 2? - the first shipped version) had major problems and used a completely different internal architecture than all other MS apps.. That was the version that MS bought from the original company and relabeled. There's no way at all to make that version work in wine. It barely worked in windows. Malloc faults resulted in a crash roughly hourly.
Publish 98 can be made to work with wine, just force the emulation to windows 95 (see the wine system.ini file).
Publish XP should 'just work' - it always has here.
I think its Publisher 1, I got it in 1993 for Windows 3.1. After I sent the first email I tried to run notepad and wine said that I did not have enough memory. I have 1gb so I think that I have something wrong with my config file. What do you think?
