I am running Mandrake 9.2 on a Toshiba 335CDS laptop. I was interested =
in
running a windows program with wine which I understand was included in =
my
Mandrake distribution. Using rpmdrake I installed the package that came =
on an
accompanying CD. However, I am at a loss as to what I do next. I did a =
search
for "wine" and all I come up with is the following. In going into these
directories I fail to see anything that is executable. Being a real =
"Newbie" I
don't quite know what I am missing (or what I am doing for that matter).
[root@localhost /]# find / -name wine
/etc/rc.d/init.d/wine
/etc/wine
/var/lib/wine
/var/lock/subsys/wine
/usr/share/wine
/usr/bin/wine
/usr/lib/wine
[root@localhost /]#
What action do I need to take to actually run a windows program under =
wine. I am really lost.
