Amd how do I fix this.Maybe you need to run ldconfig, maybe you even need to edit /etc/ld.so.conf first. Daniel

I've had success with the Slackware package downloaded from winehq.org, and installed with Slackware's installpkg. I'm going to hazard a guess that this isn't what you're using.> "Error while loading shared libraries: libwine.so.1: cannot open shared > object file"It sounds like the dynamic loader doesn't know where the libraries are. Either use the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable, or adjust your /etc/ld.so.conf accordingly and run ldconfig. If you use the above-mentioned Slackware package you won't need to do either. I hope this helps ... -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Sylvain Robitaille syl@alcor.concordia.ca Systems and Network analyst Concordia University Instructional & Information Technology Montreal, Quebec, Canada ----------------------------------------------------------------------
