I'm having serious problems when I try to make the aforementioned configuration work. Here's my setup: freebsd 5.4 stable on athlon-xp (source compiled today) wine 20050830 installed from ports xorg 6.8.2 ie6setup.exe downloaded from m$ Once everething is installed I try one of this two methods to install the browser: 1) Direct method. I type wine ie6setup.exe. It aborts with these messages: -bash2-2.05b$ wine ie6setup.exe fixme:advapi:CheckTokenMembership (0x0 0x19c950 0x33fdfc) stub! fixme:advapi:DecryptFileA "C:\\windows\\temp\\IXP000.TMP\\" 00000000 fixme:advpack:TranslateInfString ("C:\\windows\\temp\\IXP000.TMP\\IESetup.inf" " Options.NTx86" "Options.NTx86" "InstallDir" 0x10253f8 260 0x34f89c 0x0): stub fixme:advpack:NeedReboot (0x00000000): stub wine: Call from 0x9c2093ac to unimplemented function advpack.dll.IsNTAdmin, abor ting wine: Unhandled exception (thread 000b), starting debugger...

I started the setup and chose default language and option 1 (ie only installation) . The setup window actually pops up, but all characters are invisible, that is you see radio buttons and other widgets, but no words. Does any of you know of some hack around these problems? Thanks in advance.
