Zac, Thanks for the suggestion. I am running an Intel P4 duo at 3GHZ. I tried deleting the ~/.wine file and, lo and behold, wine configuration ran. So I reinstalled Powerpoint Viewer 2003; it started OK but then wouldn't open a .pps file (not a powerpoint file). I'll keep working on it now that I've gotten it started. I do need to look further into the bug about DOS memory ranges. As for the bug about wine-1.0-rc2 not compiling on FC9, I'll not worry about that unless I have to, since 0.9.58 looks like it will work. BTW, 0.9.60 didn't compile either.
