I saw on a number of recent posts references to config file. I installed wine from source 20040914. In my directory ~/.wine I have the following: [john]: 06:12 PM [~/.wine] $ ls dosdevices/ drive_c/ system.reg userdef.reg user.reg In the source directory I have the following: [john]: 06:18 PM [~/Documents/wine-20040914] $ ls aclocal.m4 config.status* documentation/ loader/ programs/ wine@ ANNOUNCE configure* fonts/ Makefile README AUTHORS configure.ac include/ Makefile.in server/ BUGS COPYING.LIB libs/ Make.rules tools/ ChangeLog DEVELOPERS-HINTS LICENSE Make.rules.in VERSION config.log dlls/ LICENSE.OLD misc/ windows/ Nowhere can I find a config file.

> Nowhere can I find a config file. Where is it?As of now, wine can be run without using a config file at all. If you do want to use a config file, a sample can be found in wine/documentation/samples/config.

documentation/samples However, the recent threads are suggesting that we don't need it. That said, I seem to find so many things I need to customize that it appears I do need it. Copy to your .wine directory and modify as you see fit...

Yikes... Your config file should be your .wine directory. When you used ./wineinstall, did you say "yes" when it asked if it should create a local config file?
