Windows programs on Linux, easily
New release
Finally! It’s late, it’s Christmas and the next test release has been uploaded!
- Program editing works now
- Running programs (especially from vineyard-cli) is more stable and easier with regards to syntax and also works much better with older programs and patchers
- Loading and saving settings is somewhat faster now
- Nautilus now shows an InfoBar when in a Vineyard configuration directory, giving the name of the configuration and direct access to it’s settings in vineyard-preferences
- Support for XRandR for screen resolution changes can be toggled on/off
- vineyard-launcher now has a button to search AppDB
- The beginnings of support for the new install script format done in cooperation with Dan Kegel. Not visible in GUI yet, but code is there
- Lots of small fixes
Get it while it’s hot at:
python-wine_0.3~pre8_all.deb
vineyard_0.1.5~pre8_all.deb
or from the Testing PPA.

Does this program make possible changing fonts used in Wine apps?

Not yet. It’s on my todo list and I have done work on it, but it’s a bit tricky so will take a little while.

A great alternative to the standard wine preferences, thanks a lot!
I particularly appreciate the hassle-free ISO image mounting, got a question about that: is it possible (or would it be in the future) to disable ISO devices so that they don’t show on the desktop? I have some that I’d like to mount when needed, but don’t want them to clutter my desktop at all times; and the alternative seems to be to delete the entries, and recreate them.
Thanks again,

I’m glad you’re finding Vineyard useful Rehdon.
Currently it’s not possible to unmount images from within Vineyard (silly, I know) but you can do it from the terminal by running “fusermount -uz /mount/point” – you can get the mount point by just running “mount” and check the list.
I can’t disable the devices showing up on the desktop in general, but unmount will come, don’t worry.
Thanks for writing.
Cheers,
Christian
