Hi Guys,

I am trying to install office with wine20040408, and it stops as critical error when I reach the screen where I'm required to input my CD-Key by saying something in Chinese (I'm installing the Chinese version) meaning roughly that the folder directory is longer than that supported by the OS, herein my config:

Please help me to spot any possible flaws, thanks a million times!

Is it absolutely critical that you install MS Office? There are tons of ebuilds out there that make nice substitutes for Office. OpenOffice is one, but it's just as bloated as MS Office (but linux native :D). Abiword is a good Word substitute, although it's a little buggy with .doc files. Gnumeric is a nice Excel alternative.

I'm not much of a wine expert, but I have a possible solution for you. CodeWeavers has developed its own distro of wine called CrossOver Offic built specifically for MS Office and Photoshop. I love this product. I use it with Photoshop and Office, and they perform better than in windows. It's alo a great product for installing other windows apps, i.e. games and what not. I have yet to find a program that doesn't work under CrossOver Office. Unfortunately, this bit of software is not free, but I'm sure you can *ahem* find it somewhere :wink:

***Note: I am not in any way condoning software piracy. Please support this greedy company so they can continue to improve their products and charge us twice as much as the last version. :twisted:

Congrats :)

Quick question for ya....
On my machine, OfficeXP (via CrossOver Office) runs a lot faster than it ever did in windows on the same machine. This seems rather odd to me, as OfficeXP is not linux native. Are you having the same phenomenon? Or am I the only one that is experiencing this?


EDIT: Mind if I ask how you did it? If you didn't go with XOver Office, it might be helpful for other readers to see what steps you took (with wine, winex, whatever).
