Exclamation WineX CVS problems...


Hey everyone I'm using a Pentium 4 1.8B cpu with a GeForce 3 Ti200 and the latest nvidia drivers. My distro is RedHat 9, and after following the CVS tree instructions on transgaming's site, I was unable to get Wine(X) to completely install. I tried using the easy-installer they included (wine installer, or something like that) and after that installed I got an error message that looked like this whenever I tried to use WineX (the command is wine off of CVS for some reason):

[yottabyte@localhost yottabyte]$ wine
wine: chdir to /home/yottabyte/.wine/wineserver-localhost.localdomain : No such
file or directory

I tried this in many different scenarios but I have no clue what the problem is... I also installed it manually using ./configure, make, etc and I still get the same problem. Its probably something simple but its just annoying because I have installed previous versions of Wine off CVS that worked just fine.

Thanks for the help.

before running wine you must launch wineserver with the -p option and it could work
[hampton@localhost hampton]$ wineserver -p
