install using the package manager. -- http://wiki.sabayonlinux.org/index.php?title=En:Entropy

open spritz click on available, then search for wine. right click on it, select install. click queued, click review for install, click commit actions, watch it install.

or use the command line

Code: Select all: equo install wine

On my backup system wine is working after the name and organisation is entered

On my notebook nothing happens after the name and organisation is entered

The difference between the two computers is
Backup system has Windows XP partition
Notebook has Vista partition

I do remember seeing a topic about getting wine to work when computer has been partition with Vista, do a search for wine on the sabayon forum, sorry I can't point you to the link as I did not read it

Have fun

though nothing happen after i entered my name and organisation and typed 'winecfg' in terminal.. then i could configure.. then when i wanted to install some .exe program i selected open with wine... then the installation started to begin.. it was very easy... i found these steps in one of the discussions of this forum
