I wanted to ask if anyone could take a look at running Google's picasa under
wine for me.
The latest windows version used to run fine under 10.1, same with google's rpm
of the linux version, but now under 10.2 RC1 neither work and I'm not sure if
it's just here, or if everyone has this problem.
Seems like a problem I am having running anything under wine, in my case
I use CrossOver Office.

I'm using crossover-pro-5.0.3 and the few Windows apps I run are OK
(Word97, IE5, excel, Lotus Notes, Pad2Pad and Batronix Databook), I
haven't tried the Windows version of Picasa, but Picasa for Linux works
with 10.2RC1. Picasa for Linux is self-contained and has it's own dll's
etc., there are also many of the same dll's by name in wine and in
Crossover Office.
You could try "rpm -e picasa" followed by "rpm -ivh
picasa-2.2.2820-5.i386.rpm" (backup ~/.picasa) to see if that fixes it,
otherwise, you possibly have a bad symlink somewhere. "strace -s 256 -f
picasa 2>&1|tee PICASA.out", then check PICASA.out to see where it
complains it can't find something it's searching for or it finds
something where it shouldn't, like in wine or Crossover.
Any error messages when run from the commandline???

Sid.
