Well my question is does wine work with gOS? Yes it works with ubuntu but before i experiment it in gOS i want to be sure...! Any information on that?? Thanks!

    Hey!
    I had used gOS Rocket that is the 2.0 version and i tried wine on it... It worked very smoothly on it and i used to play some games to take a break from internet...! Well i am not sure about it working in the current 3.1 version but it will work...! If it can work with older version it would have no problems with the updated and new version... Not sure though...! All the best...!

    Hey!
    Thats easy and almost same as Ubuntu...! Well it goes this way :
    Open terminal and type :
    Code:
    wget -q http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/387EE263.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -
    now once the key is installed add it to the repository by typing the following code in terminal :
    Code:
    sudo wget http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/sources.list.d/gutsy.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list
    Now finally update the package manager's list of available software by typing in terminal :
    Code:
    sudo apt-get update
    Once done with this download and install wine by typing in terminal :
    Code:
    sudo apt-get install wine
    All the best..!
