    Nah, I really was trying to help him. Anyway, I'm wondering how the hell he managed to install it with those commands... he shouldn't have permissions to do so. :S

    Im pretty sure he didnt. He just compiled, but didn't install.
    Which reminds me. mac666 make sure you uninstall any existing wine version before trying this.

    Well, he clearly has some version of Wine installed. And he's complaining about it not showing up in his menu, so I assume he didn't have one installed previously...

    or he just ran wine from the compiled directory.. although that wouldnt be in his path, so .. oh well, we'll find out. (Or not, I guess mac666 is off reinstalling his ubuntu for the 85th time this week )

    I'm considering reinstalling too... don't have anything important I'd lose, and maybe it'd fix my problems. :\

    Oh well, if it works, so much the better

    And I guess you dont have to worry about uninstalling wine before trying to upgrade, by then you'll have done half a dozen fresh install anyway

    If you only installed ubuntu to "play a stupid windows game" you wasted not just your own time..
