Howto: Make Cynapse Infocryptor run on wine in Ubuntu 8.0.4

Posted by dhiraj 3 years 31 weeks ago
Here's a blast from the past: I've figured out how to make Cynapse InfoCryptor work on Ubuntu Desktop. Here's how you can do it too:
  1. Install the lastest version of Wine (I used 1.0)
    1. First, open a terminal window (Applications->Accessories->Terminal). Then add the repository's key to your system's list of trusted APT keys by copy and pasting the following: wget -q http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/387EE263.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add - Next, add the repository to your system's list of APT sources: For Ubuntu Hardy (8.04): sudo wget http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/sources.list.d/hardy.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list
    2. Update APT's package information by running 'sudo apt-get update'.
  2. Install Winetricks 
    1. wget http://www.kegel.com/wine/winetricks -O ~/winetricks.sh
    2. chmod +x ~/winetricks.sh
  3. Install all 3 MDAC components from the GUI that comes when you run: 
    1. ~/winetricks.sh
  4. Install and run Infocryptor as normal. It will appear under Wine -> Programs -> Cynapse in your Ubuntu Main menu.
