i use both WindowsXP n Mandrake9.2....plz lemme know how to use WINE...im not able to figure out thingz.

Also on red hat i cud run .NET apps using mcs n mono commands...but these dont work in mandrake....any clues

To install wine:
urpmi wine
Then you run a program using
wine pathtoprogram
(there's a configuration file, in .wine directory in your home dir, filename 'config'; 'drives' seen by wine are listed here, so you may want to modify it).

abby, next time please create a new thread, don't post your question in an old one (even if it is similar). It gives your questions/thread more exposure.
