Here's what I did to install my WINE source files:Unpack the tarball and build from source tree using the following command at a console:./configure && make depend && make && make installMove to your home directory and create the fake Windows directory structure in ~/.wine like so (I compiled and installed as root, so my .wine directory is also in root. I can't seem to get the correct permissions to build as a normal user):mkdir ~/.winemkdir -p c_drive/Windows/Start\ Menu/Programsmkdir -p c_drive/Program\ Files/Common\ Filescd .wine/c_drive/Windows; mkdir Fonts System System32 Temp;copy the win.ini and system.ini from the source tree to the .wine/Windows directory:cp /usr/local/src/wine-20021031/documentation/samples/*.ini /root/.wine/c_drive/Windowscopy the sample config file from the source tree and edit the drive paths:cp /usr/local/src/wine-20021031/documentation/samples/config /root/.winecd to /usr/local/src/wine-20021031/programs/regapi/regapi and type installcp the default registry file from the source tree to the .wine/Windows directory:cp /usr/local/src/wine-20021031/winedefault.reg /root/.wine/c_drive/WindowsN.B. I haven't had much luck running programs/regapi/regapi setValue < winedefault.reg so below is my workaround to create the default registry settings. After doing some Googling discovered a page that mentionned the use of regapi had been made obsolete. Soooo....Get a copy of regedit from a Windows installation and copy it to the c_drive/Windows directory and then typewine regedit winedefault.regCheck your config file by going back to your source directory and typing:./tools/winecheckI got 95%.

I installed this version wine-20030508-1rh8winehq.i386.rpm I suppose I am gonna have to uninstall it some how -- I am wondering if VMWare would be better for RH 9.0 - another quick question I notice on some files I download they are i386 and than there is i686 - what is the difference?

Uninstall the your wine rpm by typing in the console:rpm -e winei386 means it is optimized for 386, 486, Pentium systems and i686 is for Pentium II/III/4 and Celeron. I noticed your rpm also says rh8 so I'm assuming it won't work properly with RH9. The difference as I posted above is that RH9 uses the libc 2.3 libraries, thus Wine is broken in RH9.

ok - thanks for everything I suppose it will take a bit for things to update for RH 9 - hate to go back to 8.0. I like BlueFish for an html in linux, seems to work fine in 9, so I will continue with that.
