Hello all!

I was looking for help for how to install wine. What do I do after I install the port? I tried to follow the instructions at WineHQ and any readme files and I can not seem to use any configuring methods.

It is all very confusing. I must be missing something obvious (well not to me...).

Thank you in advance...

Btw, I am using FreeBSD 5.2 and KDE 3.1

You need a wine config (http://www.winecentric.com/wine_ini.html) file. Place the file under .wine, if there aint one mkdir one. After you've configured everything as it should be, run `wine app.exe' should work after that.

Check Linux-Winetools in ports(/usr/ports/emulators/linux-winetools). It's a graphical app that helps you setup wine.
