Hello,
This problem may not be due to kernel. I am running FC1 and wine-20040505-1fc1winehq and I also have the same problem. I can run wine as root with Msoffice but not as myself(user), but I can run notepad and minesweeper as myself.
This should be a permissions issue and not related to kernel features. My own kernel is 2.4.22-1.2194.nptlcustom and I had the same problem with 2.4.22-1.2115.nptl kernel too.
Also, If you set up Temp = /tmp, word and excel both produce page faults. But if you change this to a folder under mounted native windows, word and excel can be run as root.

Joel,
Did you read the release notes on the Fedora kernal?
Here there are:
Product : Fedora Core 2 Name : kernel Version : 2.6.8 Release : 1.521 Summary : The Linux kernel (the core of the Linux operating system) Description : The kernel package contains the Linux kernel (vmlinuz), the core of any Linux operating system. The kernel handles the basic functions of the operating system: memory allocation, process allocation, device input and output, etc.
--------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information:
This update kernel updates the Fedora Core 2 kernel to version 2.6.8. Included in this new upstream kernel are several fixes on the networking front, including traffic shaping and window scaling fixes.
Note: This kernel includes several Execshield cleanups and changes, and as a
result programs that make certain restrictive assumptions about the virtual
address space (such as Wine) need a different workaround than before.
The applications can get the old (legacy) VA layout via the
setarch -L
option when a recent enough serarch application is in use, in addition there
now is a global switch to go to the legacy VA layout:
echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/legacy_va_layout
I would recommend disabling exec-shield or following the recommendations from
RedHat.

Yesterday I upgraded to kernel 2.6.8 on my Fedora Core 2 system. This caused a problem with the version of wine I'd been using (20040505), so I upgraded wine to the current version (20040813).
The remaining problem is as follows:
I'm calling wine like this:
wine start.exe vcbuild.bat
and vcbuild.bat contains the following:
set QMAKESPEC=win32-msvc.net set QTDIR=F:\wine\qt\3.2.1-nc\msvc.net set PATH=%PATH%;%QTDIR%\bin
set PATH=F:\wine\msvc++tk2003\bin;%PATH%
set
INCLUDE=F:\wine\msvc++tk2003\include;F:\wine\OpenSSL\include;%INCLUDE% set
LIB=F:\wine\msvc++tk2003\lib;F:\wine\OpenSSL\lib\VC;%LIB%
qmake nmake
This worked fine before, but now runs successfully only as root, and gives
this error for non-root users:
<snipped> fixme:exec:ShellExecuteExW32 flags ignored: 0x00000500 fixme:exec:SHELL_ExecuteW Strange error set by CreateProcess: 203 fixme:exec:SHELL_ExecuteW Strange error set by CreateProcess: 203 Application could not be started, or no application associated with the specifi ed file. ShellExecuteEx failed: Environment variable not found
The fact that it works for root but not for a normal user makes me think
that it's a permissions problem, but I don't see what the relevant
permissions are. Google turns up nothing useful which contains any of these
error strings, so I'm stumped. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
