Anyway, the first error is stating that your wine.conf file doesn't have /usr/local/etc (or /usr/local or /usr) defined as a drive in your wine.conf file. Edit your .winerc (IIRC) or copy the system default to your home and rename it to .winerc and edit that. The file is pretty self explanatory. The second error isn't a Wine error, it is an X error. Wine cannot find an X session to run on. This probably means you are either on the console of the machine, or you telnetted in. What you need to do is set your X display environment variable to the X session you are currently running. Say for instance you telnetted in from machine foo, then you would set the variable DISPLAY to foo:0.0. If you are on the console, you need to start your X session before you can run wine, type "startx" at the prompt (you may need to configure your X server before doing this. Configuring the X server is covered in the handbook. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
