For different (older) ubuntu releases or different Linux distributions you may need to get and install &quot;Wine&quot; before the installation of Sevilla. <br \/>\nPlease note that ubuntu uses the &quot;gnome&quot; desktop environment. Paths and commands of this example refers to gnome. For Linux distributions based on other desktop environments (like KDE) the position of Wine may vary.<\/p>\n<p>Please refer to your distro&#8217;s Package Manager or download the &quot;Wine&quot; source files from the &quot;Wine&quot; homepage:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.winehq.org\/\">http:\/\/www.winehq.org\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Download page:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.winehq.org\/site\/download\">http:\/\/www.winehq.org\/site\/download<\/a><br \/>\nIn this page you can find Wine packaged for several Linux flavours.<\/p>\n<p>In ubuntu 7.10 you can check the precence of &quot;Wine&quot; in <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Applications&#8211;&gt;Wine<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"540\" height=\"518\" align=\"bottom\" src=\"\/data\/img\/Sevilla\/Wine01.png\" alt=\"\" \/><br \/>\nfig.1<\/p>\n<p><\/span>Once Wine is installed, download Sevilla setup file in a temporary directory of your Linux box. In this example I have downloaded SevillaSetup1262.exe in a directory named \/kits\/Sevilla under my home directory (see fig.2).<br \/>\nTo install Sevilla simply run:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">wine SevillaSetup1262.exe<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"707\" height=\"437\" align=\"bottom\" src=\"\/data\/img\/Sevilla\/Wine02.png\" alt=\"\" \/><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">fig. 2<\/p>\n<p><\/span>The installation of Sevilla starts normally as it will do in a Windows machine:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"776\" height=\"659\" align=\"bottom\" src=\"\/data\/img\/Sevilla\/Wine03.png\" alt=\"\" \/><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">fig. 3<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Accept the license agreement, then click next and choose the destination directory. You can specify a directory or leave the default unchanged. Wine will create a virtual disk C: in its Linux home directory; any path you specify for Sevilla executables installation will be created there.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/data\/img\/Sevilla\/Wine04.png\" alt=\"\" \/><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">fig. 4<\/p>\n<p><\/span>Accept the defaulted shortcut folder, then press next. A summary of installation parameters will appear:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"648\" align=\"bottom\" src=\"\/data\/img\/Sevilla\/Wine05.png\" alt=\"\" \/><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">fig. 5<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Press the install button, and the installation begins immediately. After about a minute the installation completes and this screen shows up:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"755\" height=\"651\" align=\"bottom\" src=\"\/data\/img\/Sevilla\/Wine06.png\" alt=\"\" \/><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">fig. 6<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Press finish. The installation of Sevilla is complete. To run Sevilla: <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">Applications&#8211;&gt;Wine&#8211;&gt;Programs&#8211;&gt;JBF Software&#8211;&gt;Sevilla<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"819\" height=\"501\" align=\"bottom\" src=\"\/data\/img\/Sevilla\/Wine07.png\" alt=\"\" \/><br \/>\nfig. 7<\/p>\n<p><\/span>Sevilla starts as it will do in a Windows machine. Now you can browse your file systems to open competition files or to load language files<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"741\" height=\"581\" src=\"\/data\/img\/Sevilla\/Wine08.png\" alt=\"\" \/><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">fig. 8<\/p>\n<p><\/span>You may encounter this problem: fonts used by programs under Wine are different than those used under Windows.<br \/>\nYou can fix this simply copying the contents of your %SYSTEM DRIVE%\\Windows\\Fonts under the &quot;virtual&quot; directory for the Windows fonts created by Wine. Wine creates a file named &quot;drive_c&quot; that emulates a Windows installation disk. Under the directory &quot;drive_c&quot; wine creates a basic Windows directory structure, including the &quot;fonts&quot; directory.<br \/>\nIn this example the &quot;drive_c&quot; directory is here:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;\/home\/<span style=\"font-style: italic;\">claudio<\/span>\/.wine\/drive_c<\/p>\n<p>where &quot;<span style=\"font-style: italic;\">claudio<\/span>&quot; is my Linux user and my home directory. It may vary for every machine\/user (of course!)<\/p>\n<p>The &quot;Fonts&quot; directory is here:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;\/home\/claudio\/.wine\/drive_c\/windows\/fonts<br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">&nbsp;<br \/>\n<\/span>My laptop has<span style=\"font-weight: bold;\"><span style=\"font-weight: bold;\"> <\/span><\/span>two partitions and dual boot. Ubuntu 7.10 mount in r\/w file systems of NTFS and FAT32 type, so I just copied fonts from the Windows partition, visible as \/media\/sda1, to the&nbsp;\/home\/claudio\/.wine\/drive_c\/windows\/fonts directory.<br \/>\nAs an alternative, is possible to copy fonts from a Windows machine to a USB stick, to connect the USB stick to the Linux machine, and then copy fonts to the appropriate directory.<br \/>\nThis is what I did on my PC:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"659\" height=\"437\" align=\"bottom\" src=\"\/data\/img\/Sevilla\/Wine09.png\" alt=\"\" \/><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">fig. 9<\/span><\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s it!<br \/>\nHave fun with Sevilla<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Additional note from the author:<\/p>\n<p>I have tested Sevilla 12.7.1 with Wine under another linux distribution, Debian 4.0: veeeeeeeery smooth! A piece of cake.<br \/>\nDebian is famous for being less eshoteric than Ubuntu and much more  solid, very much appreciated by hardcore linuxers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sevilla under Linux Although Sevilla is designed for Windows, it can run perfectly well under Linux.
