Hello,
I thought it might be useful to have a thread where people could share any info on getting PC Manager working on Linux. Whether it'll actually lead anywhere remains to be seen
Here's what I've tried...
Debian's repository only has an ancient version of Wine, so I installed version 1.2 from the source code. There's an impressive list of dependencies, but it turns out it's easy to compile it on Debian, it just takes a while!
Download and install the latest version of PC Manager from FunGP:
Running it gives a Jet/DAO error, this can be resolved with:
Now PC Manager seems to run without error, and is able to browse folders on the Caanoo, but it won't detect the device!
Any ideas?
