I'm trying to use Wine on my intel mac running snow leopard. I followed very thourough instructions (that I can no longer find) involving installing Xcode, Xquartz, Wine, Macports and the Java development kit. I thought everything was working since I was able to work through any errors in the installation process and things were looking good. However, when I try to install Sound Forge 10 using wine I get this error: fixme:thread:SetThreadPreferredUILanguages 1, 0x0, 0x0 Xquartz opens, I hear the install disc start to spin up and then I get the error message and everything stops. Can anybody offer and help? I really don't know what to try next. Thanks!

Also, please be aware that 9.x version of Sound Forge is rated Garbage for running on Linux and 10.0b is rated Bronze on an old version of Wine. James
I tried printing the debug log and all I get is the same thing in the log: fixme:thread:SetThreadPreferredUILanguages 1, 0x0, 0x0 I don't think it's a problem with Sound Forge since I'm running Sound Forge 10. I'll try installing another program that has a higher rating and see if that works.
I was able to get an application to install and run using Wine, so it could just be that Sound Forge doesn't work and my Wine install is fine. Either way, I expected to be able to install it even if it doesn't run well. I've tried Wine, WineBottler, CrossOver and Macindows. Some of which are based on Wine anyway. I found some information from someone succesfully using Sound Forge with CrossOver. Although it's a different program, I'm wondering if the issues he had to work through will be the same as mine using Wine?> Sound Forge requires that the .Net Framework, the WMF 11 redist (if you're using an XP bottle) and VC2005 & 2008 SP1 runtimes are installed before the setup will continue. >Could this possibly be my issue? Does anyone have any input? I'm close to giving up, this seems to be extremely difficult!
