A lot of wine problems are from wine not being setup correctly.

Winecheck will "check" your setup for you.

What are you trying to "wine"? Some programs don't work with straight wine, but will work with wineX.

Cool

neither wine nor winex work.... i have the latest version, and i'm thinking that it has something to do with directdraw drivers, could it be that i need to set those up in the configuration?

Did winecheck say it was "all cool"?

You might be trying to run a program that just doesn't work using a winbloze emulator from codeweavers (maybe vmware).

Have you had success in running other programs, maybe similar programs, created by other vendors? If so, this one might be one of those mentioned in the above paragraph.

well, it said that i didn't have right access to a few directories, but i then ran it as root and it was ok.

You mean the wine program or winecheck? What I mean is, did you get your problem fixed then? If so...

Cool

oh, no i didn't. sorry for being vague... i just erased the program. none the less, i can't really get anything to work with wine, except the simplest programs like notepad and the like. what use is wine, really? i can't see any, because nothing works on it! has anyone gotten a good game or application to run with it?

Yeah, I play Warcraft III with Wine ^_^

Good enough for you?

What program are you trying to get running in this thread you made?

it might be configuration problems in wine....... i recommend u get winetools along with wine
