I am compiling and running current CVS Wine on RH 9.

And it seems to work quite well; the recent changes seem to have made a 
noticeable improvement to the "feel" of apps under Wine (at least to 
ones I normally use).

I have no idea what happened there. But since this is apparently a new 
installation, just completely delete the ~/.wine directory, and the Wine 
C: directory if you created it anywhere other than within ~/.wine.

Now type "wine notepad" or just "notepad". Wine should
automatically
create a new ~/.wine directory and populate it with everything needed. 
If not, try to say exactly what messages were printed.
