Well I wanted return to FFXi , so I read about its installation on Ubuntu and saw that wine 1.1.29 is needed , I installed wine , but it seems I installed it wrong (I downloaded it as compressed file and extracted the files :/ ) so I said i'll remove it and reinstall it

I opened Synaptic Package manager and removed it but its still there under "Application" tab so I went to Home folder and removed the .wine file too (I also tried removing it using the terminal but it didnt seem to work) and the wine is still under App. tab

I thought if I installed wine from terminal or by the right way , it would replace the old one but I couldnt install wine
I tried many command lines in the terminal and non seem to work and this result is what I get


graywolf0@GrayWolf:~$ sudo apt-get install wine

Any help would be appreciated :)

Also the wine should be set to Vista mode , how's that done too? :)
