How to: Install .net Framework 2.0 in Ubuntu w/Wine

Posted on by — 4 Comments ↓

The first thing that you’ll want to do is go to the Wine Config and set Windows 2000 as the default app.

Next, enter the following into the command line:

wget http://kegel.com/wine/winetricks

Then enter:

sh winetricks corefonts dotnet20

And finally:

sh winetricks fakeie6

*- If you got an error about c://windows/ does not exist try to mount your drives

  1. This works with .NET 3.0 as well. Just replace the 2 with a 3 as in sh winetricks dotnet30

  2. What if i’m getting “Winetricks now lives in the svn repository at http://winetricks.org” after I put do “sh winetricks corefronts dotnet20″. In an attempt to prevent this I used winetricks.2 instead of winetricks. That gave me different, but still unsuccessful results. now command line gave me
    “usage: winetricks.2 [options] [command|verb|path-to-verb] . . .
    executed given verbs. Each verb installs an application or changes a setting”
    Then it goes on to list options and commands.
