How do I get 32bit wine to work in Leap 16.0

English Applications

I have lots of WIndows 32 bit apps that work fine in wine on Leap 15.6 (and all the way back to Leap 12.1).
There is no 32bit support in the Leap 15.6 kernel, so a flatpak is for wine.

I added this to the /etc/default/grub file
ia32_emulation=1

and I did the zypper in grub2-compat-ia32

and rebooted and I have a 32 bit wine but no apps

How do I get the apps in my .wine home directory Drive C into the flatpak wine Drive C?

You need to install the apps in Flatpak wine. The same as you installed them previously in the native wine under Leap 15.6.

I discovered that the directories are in .var/app/org.winehq.Wine/data/wine

I have the apps working but are worthless as they cannot see any directories of the root file system and I need access to the directories there. There are 12 TB of data I need to be able to access from wine applications.

It only sees the .var files - symbolic links do not work in the drive_c - only the flatpak files.

Also why does each flatpak run take 25 seconds to start - the CPU is less than 3% busy.
