I've just compiled Wine using the transgaming patch and now need to setup the config files and just wondering if there are any nice and easy programs to set this up for me! I've tryed 'WineSetupTK' but I always run my machine as root and this does not allow you to edit the root config files! So my question is Are there any other wine config setup programs? Thanks

(as winesetuptk is pretty good anyway) Fix your own problems first, i.e. do NOT run as root. Andreas Mohr

It´s a great security hole to work in root mode on a unix machine. There is no reason to do that except some special configuration and installations things. -- Gruss Marcus Marcus Roeckrath -- Vikarsbusch 8 -- D-48308 Senden -- Germany Phone : +49-2536-9944 -- Mailer/BBS/Fax : +49-2536-9943 (V34, X75) FidoNet: 2:2449/523 E-Mail : marcus.roeckrath@gmx.de WWW : http://home.foni.net/~marcusroeckrath/
