Agent NNTP client from Forte. I know that it works in Wine according to Agent NG, but I keep getting an "unknown error". Suse 11.3 New to Wine - I am starting proggy simply by going into the Wine explorer and double click the .exe file. Is this correct? -- John Phillips, Fashion Fair Pty Ltd -- Sent via Telstra Blackberry --

Is this correct?Open a terminal, change to the directory where the program exists and do the following: wine <program>.exe And report back what happens. James McKenzie

Report the incorrect path to your distro. You can fix it by editing it with your menu editor.
