Check and see if it's prelinking. I found that prelinking (Thanks Matt!) caused a lot of the problems I was seeing. I don't think Mandrake uses prelinking, however, I'm not 100% sure of that. What I am sure is that FC uses prelinking, and it causes weird problems with wine. This FAQ tells how to turn it off. I'd recommend that you research prelinking before you do this. However, if you *need* wine to work, then you need to consider just disabling prelinking. Check out:

Even though the FAQ is for FC2, I use it on FC3 and FC4 fine.

Also, check out winetools on www.winehq.com. It's a great way to get Wine setup for your apps. I'm running stuff that shouldn't run under wine. :D

the previous posts but what app are you trying to run by the way?

I didn't have any trouble in mandrake.. however, i changed computers and the new one didn't like mandrivia or mandrake 10.1... i got lazy and started using fedora.. i've just not been able to get this particular application to work in wine...

what version of mandrake? I think in version 10.1 the last one before
they became mandriva, there is a demo version of cross over office fromcodeweavers that works great and it has wine underneath it , but it
makes things a whole lot easier, now if you don't have 10.1 email me
offline and I can make sure you get a copy of the software you need.
