ok, i just install wine and also install winamp to see how wine actually work... the installation is smooth, everything is fine

... my problem is:

after i install winamp in c:\program files\winamp
i can run winamp by typing: wine "c:\program files\winamp\winamp.exe"

from what i know, winamp dir should be in /usr/share/wine-c/Program\ Files

but when i browser it, there's no such dir... so where does my program go?

by defauld wine puts the "fake" windows instilation at /home/(username)/C
so your winamp instilation should be something like /home/(UN)/C/Program Files/Winamp

wrong...
/home/user/.wine/c
its a hidden folder in your home folder...
and just to let you in on something....winamp has ported to linux..

then why when i installed driver (the game) did it install to /home/joseph/C/Program Files/GT Interactive/Driver

don't ask me i didn't install it for ya....
the default is /home/user/.wine/c

but when i instal winamp using wine, should the winamp program located in /usr/share/wine-c/Program\ Files/winamp ? but when i open /usr/share/wine-c/Program\ Files , there no such thing as .../winamp
is it hidden or what?

Hm, is that necessary? I use dual boot with WinNT. I always supposed I could just type
wine "D:\Winnt\Programs\myprog.exe" and it would run, though I never tried it. How do I install an original Windows program in Linux?
