wine users - May 2008 - win16mutex

Does anyone know a reliable way around this?  Comes up when first trying to 
install a Win98 app, after which installation freezes.

Please tell me which version of Wine this is.
You can get the version number by opening a terminal window
and typing
  wine --version

Please tell me what application you're trying to install, and where
one can download it from, if anywhere.

Yes, trying on a 32 bit OS could help get around some configuration problems.
