hi Kevin,

I am not a Wine expert..infact I am still trying to get dosemu to work on
my ATI All in Wonder Card in VGA mode.

Two things though.

user.dat is a system file for windows, everyone has them.  I think it is
looking for it in the wrong place, mine is located on my c drive on the
windows partition:  dos_c/windows/user.dat

You can locate yours within kde with find by searching the root for user.dat

Then you can modify the config file for wine to represent where yours is.

Second, if you like mIRC, you might want to take a look at KVirc.  I love
mIRC, and KVirc is a very close version of irc for linux.  I really like it.
http://www.kvirc.org

Hope these suggestions help out.

Bambi
