Personally, I always try with clean WINE before submitting a bug report. This is very simple: rm -rf ~/.clean-wine export WINEPREFIX=~/.clean-wine wineprefixcreate Then install your game by running its installer (make sure that you are doing everything in same terminal which have WINEPREFIX pointing to clean wine prefix directory). After doing this try to run it from installation directory. If it still doesn't work then this is bug in WINE. If terminal output is different, output from clean WINE should be proffered. Please note that your ~/.wine will not be touched - by doing this in a way I described you always be able to test with clean wine prefix directory with very little additional effort and always be sure that the bug you going to report is real bug. Thanks for using WINE. _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.winehq.org/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
