Go to your /media/cdrom and run the setup with wine, install it like you would on Win (C:\ProgramFiles\Starcraft).
Now to play starcraft, goto the terminal, then go to the .wine directory

dude@mypc:/home/dude$: cd .wine
then go to drive_c/ProgramFiles/Starcraft
and wine theprogramtolaunchSCwichIcantrememberthename.exe

As you know wine emulates windows exe files,
If you install a windows program, where would it be instaled?
Normally in windows like this: Driveletter:\Thefolderordirectorythathasyourprogra mfiles\thefolderordirectorywiththenameofthefile
(in my case: C:\Archivos de programa\Starcraft, yes, its spanish)

right?

since the linux directory tree will never be like win dir tree, then wine creates a "hidden folder" (dot file for the techies :razz:, all files that start with a dot are hidden files ) and creates a similar structurure WITHIN the folder of wine (wich is hidden too)

so where is this hidden wine folder?

in your username folder

in my case: /home/Rodrigo/.wine

ok?

you can go to .wine any time just with cd, "cd .wine"
in there you will find a folder named drive_c/, guess what? thats your c: drive :grin:

got it?
