on Arch Linux, so I guess there is something wrong with your setup Norman

Did you install from the Arch repo, or direct from Winehq? I went direct as the Mint/Ubuntu repo is way back at v6.0.3.
Cheers,
Norm.

Arch repo, it is after-all a rolling distro!

Just FYI the bottles app on flatpak is super useful for managing wine prefixes and wine versions!

Silly me, of course! Thanks.
Re bottles. I only use Wine for QPC2 so I don't need any other prefix stuff etc, but useful to know about versions, thanks.
Cheers,
Norm.

Hi,
I updated my Wine installation from WineHQ, now I have Wine v10.0 running wit QPC2, Q-emulator, most Windows applications. I can connect the Wndows based QL Emulators to the Q68 or BBQL by QL Network via QLUB, need a a update in the Wine registory of the serial port.
The version of Linux Mint I use is not the current one, due an issue with SLD2 having a problem with the sound in sQLux.
I did use Arch-Linux for a while, but too liked Linux Mint, does everything I need, just needs the PPA updated.
Sort like the Windows Linux version.

Thanks Derek, very interesting.
I'm on the same version of Mint as you are but under Wine 20 from Winehq, QPC2 starts, but I can't use the mouse. Under 6.0.3 it all just works.
More investigation required.
Cheers,
Norm.

Its quite obvious that Norman lives well in our future
