well, I've followed all the install directions and I'm running the dude, as root. still I have no ping from the dude running in wine. I just switched over to linux, and I imported my old config, everything comes up fine. but there is no ping. anyone have any ideas what else I can look at.

I'm running the latest stable version of "The dude" on wine. on Ubuntu Hardy heron.

Thanks for any help. I love the dude, it's been very handy. I hope i can get it functioning on Linux!

Same problem here. Any answers yet?

Here is what I did (this works on Fedora 11, but should also work for you in Ubuntu).

* Create a new Profile in Terminal named 'Dude'
* In the Profile settings go to Title and Command and set the following settings:

Initial title: Dude Ping (not critical)
When command exits: 'Hold the terminal open'[/list]

* Then in The Dude create a new tool:

Name: 'Gnome Ping' (not critical)
Command:
Hope this helps for you! I have also created another 'Gnome' tools for Web, SSh, Telnet, etc, etc.
