Hello,
I installed wine via 'yum install wine' from my command prompt on a new
install of Fedora Core 5 (everything was updated via yum before I
attempted this), and everything went well with that. Then, when I
tried to install a game that I saw was in gold status on the apps db,
it went through a list of fonts and installed them or something, but it
wont install the game. The CD is mounted, but this is all I get:
"[root@localhost Kenny]# wine /media/ELITEFORCE/setup.exe
wine: Unhandled page fault on write access to 0x7fd5be82 at address
0x11ef:0x000002f2 (thread 000a), starting debugger...

Read the Wine Developers Guide on how to set up winedbg or another
debugger

Am I missing something? What do I need to do to get Wine to work?

hi you have to use a noncd exe to run the game successfully, if you have a legal copy of the game. look on the internet you will find there one. bb simon Am Montag, 8.

If yes, try using something simple, like winamp and see if you get sound. Daniel

Is there that much of a difference? I thought that Wine was 32-bit anyway?
