i'm new with ubuntu. I installed wine using Synaptics package manager. Everything went fine but when i go to accessories i dont see "wine file". I uninstalled and reinstalled, same results. Maybe it works and i'm just lost ???

Hi, wine should be listed under Applications, if it is not there check Main Menu (System>Pref>Main Menu) under "Items" that the box next to wine is ticked"

I have had times when I install stuff from Synaptic and not 'Applications > Add/Remove,' I have had to restart X, generally I just logout and log back in and then its there.

Also, WINE is generally listed in your applications menu.

I hope this helps.
