Yes, they don't have anything listed for the P600.

Re: Help is not working

I went to the https://wiki.winehq.org/Gecko website, downloaded the correct Gecko files, put them in ~/.cache/wine directory and it is now working. Wine never asked me about installing any libraries. Now the only downside to running PWP8 in linux is that there aren't any drivers for my Epson P600 pr...

Re: Help is not working

Yes the .exe file and the .chm are both in the same directory. I tried running PWP8 directtly under wine and it still does not work. However, I did get this error message: MESA-INTEL: warning: Haswell Vulkan support is incomplete MESA-INTEL: warning: Haswell Vulkan support is incomplete Could not fi...

Help is not working in Linux

I mistakenly started this thread in the Tips section. You can view it there or maybe it can be moved here.
Basically I have installed PWP8 on a Linux system and it seems to work fine except that the help system doesn't work.
For more info please see my posts in the Tips section.
Thanks,
Steve

Re: Help is not working

I just realized that this really should be in the support section and not here in tips. I put it here because I saw the previous post about getting PWP8 working on Linux here. My Windows 10 system is S L O W and takes forever to boot and become usable. The same computer running Linux is much faster ...

Re: Help is not working

Also, when I look at the properties of the desktop icon for PWP8, the command for starting PWP8 is: env WINEPREFIX="/home/steve/.wine" wine-stable C:\\users\\steve\\Local\ Settings\\Application\ Data\\Programs\\Digital\ Light\ \&\ Color\\Picture\ Window\ Pro\ 8\\PWP\ 8.0.exe and the wo...

Re: Help is not working

I started comparing my Linux installation with my Windows 10 installation and I think the help file is "Picture Window Pro.chm" and it works on the Windows system. On my Linux system it is located in "/home/steve/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Digital Light and Color/" which seems t...

Help is not working

I have installed PWP8 on a Kubuntu 22.04 Linux system. I used the full installer with Wine. It seems to be working fine except that the help system
is not working. I believe the help file is either not present or is not in the right place. What file should there be and where should it be?
