...the link trick doesnt work. I had to create the folders "mono" and "mono-2.0" and pasted a link in there to the target in "/home/djahma/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Mono-2.8.1/bin/mono.exe" but wine still give me the message: Install Windows version of Mono to run .NET executables. I tried to paste the link in other places such as .wine/mono or windows/system/system32 etc but it didnt work. At this stage, I have so many dll overrides and I have spent so many hours to try to get wine working that I'm thinking of using a WM instead...or even reversing to windows, it would be much much simpler.
