I installed the aboved mentioned package, and it still wasn't working. Then I changed my command from : wine /mnt/c-drive/windows/sol.exe To : wine /mnt/win_c/windows/sol.exe , And Walla ! Success ! I was so excited that I made my wife come and watch me play Microsoft solitaire in Mandrake. ( She was pretty amazed too ). I would like to get her 3D mahjong game running, It seems to choke on loading direct X . Oh well, for now I have plenty of other stuff to try :) Thank you everyone for your help.
