Application Compatibility Page

Just a quick thought, assuming it is staying, it might be nice to set someone up with the Application Compatibility Page as it is shockingly out of date Smile I would be quite happy to help out with WINE testing in the next couple of weeks, in fact I just went through a few of the pre-releases, and this is what I found:

  1. BonkEnc - Seems to run well
  2. Task Coach - Crashes at start and writes a log file, definitely doesn't seem to be compatible, although I might hack around as it complains it is missing a dll.
  3. GNUCash - Runs, but the font is messed up, I suppose that there is some way to change it and I shall look another time
  4. Toucan - I know it isn't compatible Smile

I didn't think there was a lot of point testing the App compressor and, assuming someone is up for taking that page over and we are keeping it then I shall test some more tomorrow.

I read the Wikipedia Article

and it says that WINE has a diff file system and portablility issues. I don't know.

Insert original signature here with Greasemonkey Script.

Hmm

not sure that I follow you, I was suggesting that the Application Compatibility Page was updated, to do this up to date information will be needed on running all of the apps on all of the available platforms, of which WINE on Linux is one.

Wine compatibility list

My suggestion is if it were possible to get Wine compatibility on the main Apps page? https://portableapps.com/apps

Yeah, needs testing; I am not yet on Linux/Wine but hopefully PortableApps will be a catalyst to me to make the transition. Blum
