I recently formated my hard drive and put Ubuntu Edgy Eft on my computer ^_^. Its great, but i am a noob to Linux but iam getting the hang of it (4 day on Linux).

I was reading some post on how to install byond on WINE but i am kinda stuck.. I am trying to extract the system32 and fonts from Talion Knight to ~/.wine/drive_c on my computer but it says i dont have the permission to do that. I dont want to login as root but if i have to i might(against my better judgment). Could some 1 help me with a terminal command to get it in there so i Can play byond games.

P.S everything else works, and i understand all the procedures just this one.

  
mark@mark-desktop:~$ wine C:\Program Files\BYOND\bin\byond.exe
wine: cannot find 'C:Program'
mark@mark-desktop:~$ wineserver: could not save registry branch to /home/mark/.wine/system.reg : Permission denied
wineserver: could not save registry branch to /home/mark/.wine/userdef.reg : Permission denied
wineserver: could not save registry branch to /home/mark/.wine/user.reg : Permission denied

i also get that when i try to start byond
I don't use linux but it looks to me like your on a restricted account.
In response to Xx Dark Wizard xX
Do you know how i would change that. This is the only account on the computer. I know when iam in the terminal to bet root i have to use su or sudo but how would i use them to add those files to the fake windows folder?
In response to Genjura
Like, I said I don't use linux, maybe go on the admin account?
First, try using quotes around the WINE windows path. It can't handle the space there.

Second, I can't tell if you can "wineserver" or if wine just shot that out.
In response to Danial.Beta
Well i tried this with no spaces.

mark@mark-desktop:~$ wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\

this is the outcome
mark@mark-desktop:~$ wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/BYOND/bin/byond.exe

mark@mark-desktop:~$


I know this is because i don't have the sys and font files in the fake c drive in wine -_-(cause i have no idea how to get them there) I have tried using the archive manger but it keep saying i don't have the permission -_-.. Please help i need my Byond :P.
In response to Genjura
Which guide did you follow? (the one posted on Linux Guild?) I believe this kind of error shows up when a certain dll is missing from the folder. I believe digitalmouse solved this issue a while ago by adding a dll into the folder, try a forum search.

BTW; if you want in your spare time, check out the Linux Guild in BYOND members.
In response to Genjura
You will need the DLL "MSVCIRT.dll" in your wine's C drive under "C:\Windows\system32" to even come close to getting it to run. You will also need riche20 if you want BYOND to run, but I have a feeling that you wont get it how you want it. I have put a ton of work into getting byond and WINE working. The best I have gotten is DreamSeeker with no browser and images in the text window crash WINE. It works for wiz_chat, but not much else.
In response to Danial.Beta
Well i know i need the .dlls in the folder but when i try and do this i get

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

and i know i probly wont get it working perfect but that so i will be Dual booting With Xp pro soon but until then i want to play some Game -_-..

and it is possible i really dont know how much work was put in to this but this seem to work perfect.

Open a terminal and cp it.

sudo cp blah.dll /home/mark/.wine/drive_c

When it asks for a password put in yours.
In response to Genjura
You've messed up the permissions on your home drive somehow. Try entering this command:

sudo chown -R mark /home/mark

(That reads "temporarily become root, then change the owner of /home/mark and all folders below it to the 'mark' user".)

Then you shouldn't get any more permissions errors.
In response to A.T.H.K
A.T.H.K Your the Best i did a

mark@mark-desktop:~$ sudo cp -r /home/mark/system32* /home/mark/.wine/drive_c/windows


And it started up YAY but now when i try to login it says cannot read key file -_-... Once again i ran into a road block.

In response to Genjura
Like I said, your permissions are screwed. Enter the line I typed above into a terminal to fix them. Becoming root all the time to work around the problem is NOT a good permanent solution.

Crispy is right i don't know how you messed up the permissions my way is yes just a temp fix, you should be able to access your own files no matter what.

TIP OF THE DAY: in your home folder press ctrl+h to show all the hidden folders :).
In response to Crispy
yea i know Crispy.. that basically the 1st thing i learn't when starting Linux.(but i was that desperate)

anyway now that byond is working i need to login so i can play games -_- . When i start it up it asks me to retrieve my key so i do then it Says the nice locksmith thingy then i try to login and it says "Cannot read key file" i think this is because it cannot read or write anything to wine without my permission ... so is there anyway to make a key file?

Or any other ways??

yea A.t.h.k i did do a ctrl+h to see the hidden file so i could copy and paste but it said the same thing... I think is because i am using the latest version of wine..
In response to Genjura
You might need to set write permissions on that whole folder as well... try this:

chmod -R u+rw /home/mark
In response to Crispy
as an added note: don't expect to play games using the Windows DreamSeeker under Wine - due to problems with the richedit dll, it just ain't gonna work for the majority of games on BYOND.

the crossover office guys (core developers for wine) are working on some possible fixes (or workarounds)- hopefully they'll shoot me a beta to play with in the next week or two.

you'd be better off trying VMware or Qemu to install something small like an embedded Windows 98se partition, which you can then use to install and run the Windows BYOND software.
In response to digitalmouse
Actually digitalmouse, we got DreamSeeker running quite well, theres only a few small problems with it. (browser popups don't work as well, and no icons can be in the textbox, otherwise it will crash the game.)

But other than that, it's working.
[though, I do realize that you were one of the people activly helping this get fixed.

well that did not work..

anyways ill keep trying.. but which is better dual booting or using vmware? i was thinking of dual booting but that seem like a waste of time but i don't know in my little old 7 year old computer can handle running another Os in vmware...
In response to Genjura
You need to be root for that.
