wine users - Feb 2002 - Newies Q: Getting Started With Wine On Red Hat 7.2

Hi; 

I'm running Red Hat 7.2 on a lap top that was given to me already set
up.

It looks like wine was preinstalled with Red Hat 7.2.

When I run "wine" at a shell prompt I get the error message

====================wineserver: chdir /home/srussell/.wine : No such file or
directory
====================
I think I might need to run some sort of set up program.

I checked out the win man page, but all it told me was that I should
read the source install directory without telling where it is or which
file I need.

I tried "winesetup" but it doesn't appear to exist.

Can anyone point to where I could read about this issue to get wine
running?

I had the same problems. I downloaded a different version from winehq and
compiled that one. Worked like a charm..  created the winesetup too.
