Well I finaly found the problem and got wine up and running. The problem was in the wine 0.9.12 patch file "wine-0.9.12.diff" included in the suse source rpm "wine-0.9.12-SuSELinux91.src.rpm" and I gues applied to the prebuild binary "wine-0.9.12-SuSELinux91.i586.rpm". To get wine running I removed the lines from the diff file wich modified the preloader binary, and now wine builds and runs, but a question remains how good is this patch? I culdn't compile wine without aplying the patch and obviosly there are some errors in it. don't know if I shuld inform the suse maintainer mr. Marcus Meissner about this? only 190 downloads of wine for this suse version (9.1) and over 4600 for suse 10. Tnx for the help _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.winehq.org/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
