I tried the free demo and had no luck, it just doesn't open and doesn't give
any errors (so you probably did set up wine correctly it just doesn't
work).  Sorry, this is not one of the apps that just work out of the box and
since no one else appears to have tried it so there are no easy
workarounds.  Try asking for help on Wine's mailing list or at the very
least add the app to the appdb and say it doesn't work.

You *might* want to try an updated version of wine (
http://www.winehq.org/site/download-deb).  But if they don't have the app in
the db, odds are this would not fix whatever keeps it from working.

Good luck and please keep posting any progress you make,
Bryan

The one I'm working on is Dora's World Adventure.  I just tried the
database, but couldn't find it.  In my accessories folder I have wine help
(which is blank) wine file browser, and wine notepad.

I fiddled around for a while in the file browser and found a "run" command
which allowed me to access the CD and try to install the CD.  It put a Wine
folder under my applications with a link to the Dora game, but the game
won't run.  I assumed it was because of a lack of RAM.  Did I run Wine
properly?  Should I still run it from the command line?

Thanks

Bruce
