I have installed WINE on my Ubuntu 8.10 and after I put a CD in I install it successfully, but I can not get them to play. I click on the title of the game under my WINE and I have tried just running it by clicking "run using WINE......." and nothing happens. What am I doing wrong and also how do you uninstall a program inside wine, when I tried nothing happened?
Thanks a lot in advance

Check Wine's Application Database (http://appdb.winehq.org/) to see if your application actually works with Wine, as well as what you might need to do to get it running.

As for uninstalling things from Wine, you just need to either run "uninstaller" in a terminal or use the Applications menu shortcut to run Wine's uninstaller application.
