Hello.

I'm trying to get wine working under 8.10.

I've installed wine from apt (v1.0.1), and tried to run the config as instructed on http://www.winehq.org/site/docs/wineusr-guide/config-wine-main I then updated to v1.1.9 using the repository and tried again, but no result either.

I get the following from console when trying to run winecfg:


mark@Pegasus:~$ winecfg
No protocol specified
ALSA lib ../../../src/seq/seq_hw.c:457:(snd_seq_hw_open) open /dev/snd/seq failed: Permission denied

Make sure that your X server is running and that $DISPLAY is set correctly.

err:ole:apartment_createwindowifneeded CreateWindow failed with error 1114

Trying to run wine config from the application launcher also does nothing. (The application fails to run).

Any suggestions?
