Hi Jeff,
wineconf isn't read by many people, so I'm replying on the wine-users
mailing list.
Which version of Pervasive, exactly?
It looks like you asked the same question at
http://www.experts-exchange.com/Networking/Linux_Networking/Q_22472428.html
and gave more details there.
In particular, somebody there wrote>If you try to open an application data file (that's on drive I:)

And you replied:>Win I run WBEXEC32.EXE in PVSW\BIN it opens and appears to run, but I
cannot do >anything. I have to "break" out of it to stop it.
Gee, it sounds like it ought to be possible to set up a
toy database that exhibits the problem, using the trial versions at
http://www.pervasive.com/downloads/
Can you give us a step-by-step recipe for reproducing the
basic problem using just the trial versions and a toy database?
It might be quite easy (e.g. "Give the following command to create an
empty database.... The tool crashes like this...")
Thanks,
Dan
