[olug] Running EasyGPS in Wine

[Shannon]

need to run it via the terminal

~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/EasyGPS$ wine EasyGPS.exe


"
wine: Call from 0x7b844b20 to unimplemented function
gdiplus.dll.GdipCreateBitmapFromResource, aborting
"

need to do some searching on that dll  if you get the same error
