Hello,


I've switched my machine over to Kubuntu from Windows 10, and I've been migrating all my programs over to it. But GenoPro poses a problem. I have the program downloaded, along with WINE and WINEtricks, but it will not run, despite the WINE wiki and the software developer stating it can be done. There used to be a package hosted by the developer that you needed to download along with the program (InstallMfcDLL.exe), but that was removed several years ago, so I assumed it's no longer needed? I'm very confused. The pages on the GenoPro site and the WINE wiki have not been updated for several years and look to be out of date.

And for those of you wondering why I don't just use Gramps; I do. However, Gramps lacks the tree overview GenoPro has, allowing graphical manipulation of all elements, which I find completely indispensable in my genealogy work. GenoPro is for my quick and messy diagrams, Gramps is my information database.

When I try to run GenoPro using WINE, I just get a plain white program window with nothing in it. No error messages, just an empty program window. Any ideas diagnosing this would be greatly appreciated.
