wine users - Apr 2008 - RHEL5 - Download via EPEL was success but with errors

Errors keep coming back when I try to configure WINE. This is on RHEL5, and I do
not have sound support installed (if it makes any difference).

Why are you running it as root?

It sounds like you have a 3D graphics driver problem.
Does glxgears work for you?

Also please never run wine as root :-)

I do not use glxgears - should I?

I am not sure why but now under 'root' I can get to winecfg GUI and c:
maping is there. However if I switch to other user I get these errors and
nothing happens. Does this still point to the Graphic drivers?

Make sure that your X server is running and that $DISPLAY is set correctly.

I tried logging in as user and it works. I see the drive mappings and winecfg
GUI comes up. This is excellent news  :D ...

Now, I have to spend some time and figure out how you download applications and
configure them in the most beneficial way to compliment multiple user setup.
