I am trying to install wine on an Asus EEEPC 901. Every thing goes as expected until I receive the following FATAL error. What is the problem and what can I do about it? If I then try winecfg I receive the error messages further down. winefile appears to behave correctly but iexplorer remains blank even after Gecko is installed. Notepad appears to work ok. Setting up libwine-print (1.0.0-1+eeepc2) ... Setting up libwine-sane (1.0.0-1+eeepc2) ... Setting up wine-bin (1.0.0-1+eeepc2) ...

There's iexplore, and there's explorer. Since you mention gecko, I assume you mean iexplore. Did you type in a URL at the command line when you started iexplore?> This happens when I try winecfg > > /home/user> winecfg > wine: created the configuration directory '/home/user/.wine' > ALSA lib seq_hw.c:457:(snd_seq_hw_open) open /dev/snd/seq failed: No > such file or directory > Could not load Mozilla.

Does winecfg not work? -- -Austin
