trying to run The White Chamber using wine


Hi all!
Hope everything is going well...

I'm trying to run a game called The White Chamber (by Studio Trophis).
I'm using Fedora Core 6, and I have wine-0.9.25-1 installed.

The installation of the game was fine... wine ran the installer, and created icons on the desktop.
When I run the game I get an in-game initial screen to choose a language. When I choose a language, the game exits.

What can I do to figure out what the problem is and how to succeed in running the game?

Thanks!

It's a good thing that the next game of the company ("For The Game"), which is in development, will also support Linux.

Navigate to the directory where the game executable (.exe) is, open a terminal and give the command "wine ./game.exe" (replace game with the actual filename and don't type in the quotes). This will show many debugging information in the terminal.
