[Wine] myspaceim, installs fine, but no internet connection
hi guys, this is my first post, i just want to say that wine is an awesome program and my appreciation goes out to the developers and the community :D i'm new to linux, running open suse 11, which i have to say is an excellent distro, seems very solid and everything works! i tried installing myspaceim last night in wine, and it installs fine and seems to behave normally, the only trouble is that it wont connect to the net. does anyone know why this might be, and how maybe i could go about resolving this? the same thing seems to happen when i tried installng miranda im in wine, no connection. the network adapter works fine in linux itself though, faster than windows in fact! any help/thoughts are appreciated :D

MySpaceIM is known not to work. Check the AppDB for info on individual apps: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=5007
