wine users - Feb 2004 - followup to earlier problem (turns out uxtheme is a prob)

a coupla days ago I posted that wine would no longer load anything, after my 
KDE upgrade. 
I got the source for the latest wine, and compiled.
I ran the wine notepad, and it worked, which I was quite happy about. then I 
tried loading mIRC, and I got what looked like the same error, and I was 
rather upset. after a bit of config shuffling, and retesting, I got the 
option to debug after the error, I did so, and after a couple of times I 
found that uxtheme.dll.so was the problem (maybe because it's an XP 
replacement and I'm emulating 98?)
moving that file seems to have worked, though I've not tested much, and it 
seems I have some configuration to do.

so basically, if you're not emulating XP and you have crashes before you
even
see anything, you may want to try removing uxtheme as well

Or in the [DllOverrides] overrides section of ~/.wine/config, add:
"uxtheme" = ""
Which should have the same effect.
