wine users - Aug 2010 - MSN wtf?

Well I've dabbled with Wine on and off for about a year and quite frankly,
I've never gotten Wine to work... in fact I've never gotten Wine to do
anything--I don't know why I bother, I guess because sometimes my head
inflates, and I just need Wine to tell me that yes tehre are some htings in life
I can't have.

So I went here: http://wiki.winehq.org/MSN_Messenger_webcam_support

Didn't work... cashed.  So I used wine tricks and installed a bunch of crap
Google suggested.

Now I get this:

Hi,

I use Wine to play all of my favorite Windows(R) games.
They all play 100% perfectly on my Ubuntu Linux using Wine.
Wine is one of the greatest "reverse-engineering" applications ever
made!

Just my two cents...

Since Messenger is a Windows product, I NEVER expect it to work in Wine 
with a webcam.

Try some of the Linux alternates to this very broken product.

BTW, there is a nice tutorial in Wine's Applications Database on how to 
get this program to work, minus webcam,
