wine users - May 2009 - Program installed fine, doesn't run though

I have a windows app that I installed on Ubuntu 8.10(Dell Inspiron E 1505). The
installation went fine. Now when I start the program the program seems to start
and then it vanishes away.  I am just double clicking the windows app/program on
my ubuntu Desktop to run it just like I would do on a windows desktop.

Are there any logs any where I can find what exactly is happening? This is my
first attempt to get a windows app to work on Ubuntu and possibly OS X.

Thanks

John,

Thanks much for your quick response. Here is what I did

I took the command from the icon on desktop (right click -> properties and
copied command)  and backgrounded the process and captured the log

Here is the log

The screen froze as usual and I had to hard boot, but then I disabled compiz and
set the resolution as suggested. Ran it again from the Command line and now the
computer does not freeze and the program starts and is running. I dont see any
thing except a grey window in which the program is supposed to run

The fixme messages seem to be features that are not supported or bugs.
