wine users - Sep 2009 - Guitar Pro 5 RSE?

I installed Guitar Pro 5 via Wine, and I am able to get the program to playback
in MIDI, but I when I enable the RSE (Realistic Sound Engine) and press play I
no longer receive any sound from the program. The program then freezes shortly
after that.
I installed TiMidity++ MIDI sequencer via sudo command, as I heard many people
say that Guitar Pro will not run correctly without it.

I played with the Wine configurations for it, but I'm not sure which version
of Windows I should set it as.
I tried XP, and the sound didn't sync up with the notes at all. I also tried
the "Use Global Settings" option, and this was my end result.
If it helps, I'm running Wine version 1.0.1 under Linux Mint 7.

I'm not all that concerned with the RSE not working, but if I can get it
working it would be a plus [Laughing]

Does anyone know how to enable the RSE correctly?
Thank you all, in advance :D

Don't bother with RSE, even if you can make it working properly with some
more recent wine version tthan yours, its cpu overhead is unacceptable.
Instead search for some good soundfont and let timidity++ make all the work.
