wine not initializing correctly?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I installed wine using the fc5 repositories.  

# wine --version
Wine 0.9.24

I then try to use winecfg and get: 

# winecfg
wine: creating configuration directory '/root/.wine'...
Failed to open the service control manager.

It hangs here forever.  However, it does create a wine directory with random extension:
e.g. .wine-SMvQR6  

Everytime I run the winecfg command, I get another directory with a different random extension.  I thought that if I ran this as root, it would create a global directory so that any package installed would be available for any user, but .. I can't  even get winecfg to work.

What am I doing wrong?

Sincerely,
Dave Hopkins
