This is my first time using wine, so forgive me if I am asking a question that's already been answered (although I DID search docs and NG's first..) EVERY time I run Wine (wine-only install, no MS_DOS partition), it goes thru the "building font metrics" phase, which takes forever, but i've seen 1 program run successfully, so something must be working.. When I try to run the setup for icq2000b, it goes thru all the fonts twice before actually running, and then I get a message saying I need a file called 50comupd.exe .. I downloaded that file, and have tried putting it in "c:\", "c:\windows", and "c:\windows\system" None of those locations seem to appease this darn thing.. Any ideas there?? The thing about the fonts: how do I deal with that? I've read that it's only supposed to do that once.. And here's what I get when it goes thru twice: <snip> fixme:font:LFD_InitFontInfo font '-sun-open look glyph-----19-190-75-75-p-154-su nolglyph-1' has unknown registry 'sunolglyph' and character encoding '1' fixme:pthread_kill_other_threads_np FIXME:pthread_rwlock_rdlock FIXME:pthread_rwlock_unlock FIXME:pthread_rwlock_rdlock FIXME:pthread_rwlock_unlock Building font metrics.

Any ideas > there??*grin* You shouldn't place it there, you should *install* it !! ;-) But I suspect that your registry setup might be wrong, which could lead to this COM message. Have you installed the winedefault.reg file ?> The thing about the fonts: how do I deal with that? I've read that it's > only supposed to do that once..

Hi there I have a problem I can't get out of.Compiling my libfile.spec it says: undefined reference to 'DllMain'.(It is claimed in the function __wine_spec_file_init).All the attempts I have done to resolve the problem have been useless. Please help me to get rid of it! Thanks in advance Michele P.S: I have tried both the version 20010305 tar and rpm.
