i whenever try to run wine i get following error
"wine: creating configuration directory '/root/.wine'...
/usr/bin/wineserver: relocation error: /usr/bin/wineserver: symbol epoll_create, version GLIBC_2.3.2 not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference
wine: wineprefixcreate failed while creating '/root/.wine'."

Have you tried running Wine as a non-root user? I don't think it's a good idea to run Wine as root, like you seem to be doing (otherwise it shouldn't be trying to create the directory under /root which is root's home directory).

Why are you running wine as root?

apologies b0uncer didn't realise this post had been answered. Damn I need to remember to refresh my browser before posting.

thanx
what about this
"wine: creating configuration directory '/home/jamil/.wine'...
/usr/bin/wineserver: relocation error: /usr/bin/wineserver: symbol epoll_create, version GLIBC_2.3.2 not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference
wine: wineprefixcreate failed while creating '/home/jamil/.wine'."

At minimum you should provide distro, and wine version. Also, if you compiled wine or got the binaries from a repo. Details ... more details. Nobody can help you with what you have provided.

well i have red hat 9. i don't know how to find version . i got wine's rpm from winehq.com.rpm's name is
"wine-0.9.2-1fc1winehq.i686.rpm"

well, both your distro and wine versions are very old. Wine is now up to version 0.9.33. About the only thing I can suggest with your distro is to try compiling the source yourself.
