Wine + IEs4Linux + Ubuntu updates = sadness

July 17th, 2007 · No Comments

So, FWIW, apparently the latest Wine update to 0.9.41 breaks IEs4Linux. Symptoms: IE runs but
a) displays only blank pages
b) doesn’t have toolbars
c) does not let you enter URLs in the address bar, only displaying the letter ‘h’

Per this forum thread, I downgraded back to 0.9.38 and everything is hunky dory again. You should only have to download the .deb file (provided at that link), run ’sudo apt-get remove wine’, then double-click and install the file you downloaded. Well, I had to reinstall ies4linux after that, but I think that’s just cause I screwed things up trying to fix the problem.

Good luck!

Just a heads up for the devs out there.
