If you installed wine from an rpm it should 'just work' as it is
installed by the rpm. You shouldn't need to run wineinstall.
The documentation should be under /usr/share/doc/wine-{version}
Check the docs and the config file that should be created in ~/.wine/
Note that it may not be created until you try to run an application under
wine.
I believe the default 'C' directory is /usr/share/wine-c/
A quick test you could try:
If you have access to a windows machine, copy 'freecell.exe' to
/usr/share/wine-c/windows/freecell.exe and copy cards.dll (from
windows\system, I believe) to /usr/share/wine-c/windows/system/cards.dll
You should then be able to execute
'wine /usr/share/wine-c/windows/freecell.exe'
I use it here on an machine running 7.2 without any difficulty.
I've been able to get quicken 6 and quicken 98 working under wine. I even
got the windows installer to install them under wine. Both work, with
limitations. Printing a check won't work, not that I really expected it
would. Quicken locks up often, normally caused by using a drop down
selection box. If I baby it, and ask nicely, I can sometimes manage to
enter several transactions without lockup.
None of the above is a complaint, by the way. Wine is a pretty slick
solution, and seems to continue improving. You might want to try a recent
version from http://www.linux-easy.com/daily/
Hope that helps,
