x11drv is the "dllname" for this beast. The leaf name for it as it
lives in the linux filesystem is libx11drv.so. Got one of those?
Sorry, I don't know where SuSE puts it. Mine is in /usr/local/lib.
Likely places to look are /usr/lib and /opt/wine/lib (or
/opt/lib/wine??). Hmmm, if SuSE was kind enough to include wine's man
pages, look at section FILES at the end of man wine:
FILES
...
/usr/local/lib/
Directory containing wine's shared libraries
Version 20010731 Aug 5, 2001 1
Yours might be different, but that is where libx11drv.so should live,
and that directory should be in /etc/ld.so.conf, or in one of the
environment variables LD_LIBRARY_PATH or WINEDLLPATH.
Why is root trying to run Wine? Ideally, root should be a lazy sod, and
should not do anything it doesn't have to do.
