Hello all 1. winecfg (& autodetect your drives) A window opens but it hangs again and it shows nothing. Little difficult to explain how it was may be I could attach a screenshot. 2. winefile (and see do you find them) A window opens but it hangs again and it shows nothing. 3. wine notepad.exe (should get you a windows like notepad. ) A window opens but it hangs again and it shows nothing. It shows me a notepad.but I can't type anything in it and it hangs again. 4. wine <your program installed under ~/.wine/drive_c/> I don't have anything installed. I am not able to install anything that is the problem. :( Any clue on it.

To use vi is to practice zen. Every command is a koan. Profound to the user, unintelligible to the uninitiated. You discover truth everytime you use it. _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.winehq.org/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
