I'm a Linux newbie. I have Hardwood Solitaire installed with Ubuntu 10.4 and wine 1.2-rc7. The file is a .exe and it starts to open and stops saying it has a serious error and needs to close. The file is OK in windows and I need help to find out why it wont work here. Please remember I'm a newbie and any help needs to be basic. Thanks. The file is hwsoliii.exe Bob Also, can videochat programs like iSpQ 9.0 run from wine. How is that done. Thanks again.

Thanks again.First, you might update to wine-1.2. When it's done, check in the wine FAQ how to get a debugging log (you might want to read the other sections as well, shouldn't hurt) For specific applications, you can check the AppDB

Have wine 1.2 and still have the same problem with hwsoliii.exe which is that when it tries to install, it gives a message that there is a serious problem and has to be shut down. Tried to get a debugging log but I guess being a newbie, I don't understand that nor where to get it and how to use it. Will keep trying with your help til the program installs. The same problem exists with Fedora fc 13 and Ubuntu 10.4. Can send a screenshot of the error message if needed. Thanks for the help. Bob
