Denna ska tutorial vägleder dig steg-för-steg through installerande IE 5, 5.5 och/eller 6 i Ubuntu - att använda den fruktansvärdna programvaran IEs4Linux. IEs4Linux framkallades för rengöringsdukformgivare som önskar till flyttningen till Linux men stilla behov för att testa deras platser på IE- och Linux användare, som måste att öppna platser IE-endast.
- Starta, genom att välja Applikationer -> Tillbehör och därefter Slutligt.
- Skriva befalla
sudogedit /etc/apt/sources.list
och skriv in ditt lösenord, när du meddelas.
- Nu ska du den behovsuncommenten universum repositories. Sök efter fodrar som var liknande till http://xx.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu lättretligt universum och ta bort ##en markerar (om de inte är redan), från början av fodrar. Notera: om du använder en äldre version av Ubuntu, sök efter liknande fodrar, men de ska har lättretligt eller dapper i dem i stället för lättretligt. Räddning spara och den nära gediten.
- Öppna nu det Synaptic paketerar chefen, genom att välja System -> Administration -> Synaptic paketera chefen. Du ska behov att skriva in ditt lösenord för Synaptic till barkassen.
- Klicka Sökande knäppas uppifrån av Synaptic, skriv in cabextract och klicka Sökande.
- Klicka boxas bredvid cabextract tillträde och valt Markera för installation.
- Repetition som de ovannämnda tvåna kliver bara sökandet för wine och markera det för installation. Klicka, när båda har markerats, Applicera knäppas.
- Ett ska summariskt fönster verkar fråga dig att att bekräfta att du önskar att installera paketerar. Klicka Applicera att fortsätta. Notera: Jag hade faktiskt redan installerat Wine, så det nedanfört för screenshot som ska för att inte vara identisk till din - ska din har mer än 1 objekt till installation.
- Synaptic som nu ska, nedladdar och installerar Wine och cabextract.
- Klicka, efter installationerna var lyckade, Nära knäppas.
- Gå tillbaka till ditt Slutligt fönstret och skriver in befalla:
wget http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/downloads/ies4linux-latest.tar.gz
- När ies4linux-latest.tar.gz sparar har nedladdat, skriver in:
tarzxvf ies4linux-latest.tar.gz
därefter
cd ies4linu-*
och slutligen
./ies4linux
- Du ska meddelas med flera JA (y), eller inget (n) ifrågasätter. Skriv in y, när du frågas, till exempel, om du önskar att installera IE 6 och 5.5. Om du inte önskar att installera IE 5, skriv in N. When asked if you’d like to create shortcuts to the versions of IE on your desktop, I’d suggest yes - you can always delete them later.
- After the installation has completed, you should have one or more new IE icons on your desktop (depending on which versions you chose to install). Launch one of them by double-clicking its icon.
- You’ll be taken to a congratulations page on the developers site.
- Test out your site by visiting it. And remember - only use IE in Linux for testing purposes. Keep your normal browsing to Firefox or a quality browser.

This is just rediculous. It is totally wrong to assist people in the act of installing freedom-restricting bits on their freedom-granting operating systems. Please remove this content.

Adam -
A couple of things you may have missed from the article itself:
IEs4Linux was developed for web designers that want to move to Linux but still need to test their sites on IE and Linux users who have to open IE-only sites.
Only use IE in Linux for testing purposes. Keep your normal browsing to Firefox or a quality browser.

Whether you or I like it very much, IE is the still the most used browser on the Internet. Web designers/developers cannot in good conscience develop a site that doesn’t render properly in IE. Hence the need to install IE in Linux.
Ross,
Despite the justifications, we’re still talking about installing non-free bits. Worse still, is that we’re talking about teaching others how to do so. This is unethical regardless of the reason(s).
As for development, content publishers need only adhere to W3C standards. If Internet Eroder chokes on them, well so be it.
Adam
Adam,
Honestly, I understand where you’re coming from. But your argument is still flawed - MP3 is a “non-free bits” and as much as Fedora encourages folks to switch to ogg - which I certainly think is a good thing - everyone installs MP3 codecs in their linux distribution. Same with DVD playback. It’s another ‘non-free bit’ - are we all not supposed to watch DVDs in linux?
Every single serious web developer would love it if IE adhered strictly to W3C standards, but it doesn’t. To design a site that doesn’t display properly in IE is suicide. This next comment is absolutely not meant to insult you, but you’ve clearly never worked (as a developer) on a popular website.
I will jump for joy when Firefox users (or Camino, Opera, heck even Netscape) outnumber IE users. I go out of my way to convert people to Firefox (my mum now runs Ubuntu instead of Windows). But until that day comes, web developers that work on sites for the masses HAVE to ensure that their sites work in IE.
If you’d like to continue this conversation, please use the contact form so we can do it via email. Cheers!

A great doc to install IE on Linux, this is not for daily use just to see how a web development look on IE. This is make me keep on Linux, Flaxibility and Choice.
hi guyes,
I install IE on my centOs but i have faceing probelm checking Apple in IE 6.0
SO please help me regarding same
Thanks for the handy tutorial, Ross! Worked like a charm for me on Xubuntu 7.04.
And Adam, wake up buddy - you’re not worth a can of beans as a web developer if you don’t test your sites in IE 6. IE 5.5 might be more debatable (these days) but all current stats peg IE 6 as the dominant browser, and by a long shot (http://www.upsdell.com/BrowserNews/stat.htm)
Wasting time installing MS Internet Explorer on a GNU system is wasting valuable time and resources ***even for web developers***
Adam Kosmin is mostly correct in his comment.
Ruben
Adam- I like how you are standing against IE, as I would do too, but IE is a large part of internet usage and until the day when it is not, (which i hope will come soon) we (meaning web devs) need it.
Folks, I’ve been using Linux for a year now and I think it’s great. I’m installing IE on Linux to access my router’s web page that (unfortunately) only works with IE. People don’t have to be so radical as forbid proprietary bits to be installed in Linux system, because we have to use whatever tool is necessary for each task. In my case, that’s the only option.
Great tutorial, thanks a lot.
This is a great tutorial! We need IE to run our childrens’ CDs for school (we homeschool). If we can run IE on Linux (we just installed Ubuntu yesterday! Yay!), then we can switch over our machines. Without this tutorial, our other 5 machines would remain Windows machines. This should encourage you - the glass is half full, guys!
Thank you! Just what I was looking for. You might want to ignore die-hard open source fans. Some things aren’t practical. Without something like this, I’d have to keep booting into Windows to check my site design.
Ross, when installing IE on Linux as described, are you required to purchase a MSFT license of any kind??
Thanks,
Rick
