Yes, copying msls31.dll is necessary for e-sword to run properly. I have it listed as steps 10 and 12. @ brian: If you do not already have a bunch of data saved on the hard drive, I'd recommend a format and a clean install of Ubuntu and wine/e-sword. On a clean install, the above directions should work with no problems. @ rcravysibi: Thanks for the follow on. Yes, copying msls31.dll is necessary for e-sword to run properly.

It would seem that e-sword had installed, but when I tried to start it, there was no Bible Programs there. So decided to uninstall everything and start again. Now I can't install Wine!!!!. Oh well. Will keep trying. Thanks for the follow up Ryan. It would seem that e-sword had installed, but when I tried to start it, there was no Bible Programs there.

Thanks so much for the "how to". Just installed Wine, then e-Sword into Ubuntu 8.04 studio. Then went to my Windows install of e-Sword and copied all Bible, dictionary, commentary, etc. files from e-Sword folder in Program Files and copied them into e-Sword folder in Ubuntu. Works great! Had error finding msls31.dll first time started but not since. I really appreciate your clear explanation. Made it easy for me. Ryan. Thanks so much for the “how to”.

Open up your Home directory. In my case it is labeled "Ryan". 2. Do that by going to "Places" on the menu and choose "Home folder" 3. Go to View>Show hidden files in the Home folder. (Press CTRL-H as a short cut) 4. You should see hidden files now. Look for one that is labeled ".Wine" (Notice the period in front of Wine) and double click it. 5. Double click the folder "Drive_C" 6. Double click the folder "Program Files" 7. Double Click the folder "E-Sword" (Note: If it is not there, e-Sword was not installed) 8. Double click the program "e-sword.exe" and it should run the program. Let me know if you have any other questions. Hi Brian,

Try this to see if e-Sword was installed.

1. Open up your Home directory. In my case it is labeled “Ryan”.
2. Do that by going to “Places” on the menu and choose “Home folder”
3. Go to View>Show hidden files in the Home folder. (Press CTRL-H as a short cut)

I've been trying to find how to use E-sword on Linux for a few weeks. I wonder if I can ask for a little more help though. I have installed Wine and, as far as I know, I have installed e-sword. However, my Applications menu doesn't have either an option for 'wine' or 'other'. So, I'm feeling a bit stuck, and a little frustrated. I am using Feisty Fawn and wine0.9.5 (When I tried to upgrade, I received a message that some of the required additions aren't installable on my laptop.) Any further guidance you may have would be fantastic. Brian Hi Ryan, Thanks for some good, clear instructions about this. I’ve been trying to find how to use E-sword on Linux for a few weeks.
