    Wine "kicks me in da face"

    Hi mates,
    I am having some problems with Wine, installing it for the second time...(since I had to
    reinstall Linux completely some days ago)
    I didn't have those problems the first time I installed Wine, curiously.
    I downloaded all the necessary dependencies, and the ./configure and ./make work...
    but when running it, this is what tells me:
    [root@localhost wine]# winecfg
    wine: creating configuration directory '/root/.wine'...

    Failed to open the service control manager.

    The things about the 3D driver appeared the first time I installed it, but were no problem at all.
    The thing of the cnotrol manager is the new problem, which doesn't allow it to start.

    Any ideas, dudes?

    ./configure and ./make? Does this mean you're installing wine from source?
    I don't know if this is the root of your problem, but the recommended way to install wine from source is to use the wineinstall script from the tools directory (in the wine source directory tree). Try uninstalling wine and re-installing using wineinstall (as per the README).

    Oh, thanks, I will try... but could you tell me how to uninstall, considering I
    installed it with a .rpm file?

    Oh no...now it tells me that Wine is not installed, when I try to delete it.
    And when I downloaded it again to install it again, it tells me it is already installed... ???

    Perhaps I should try a different thing...Wasn't there a wine-like program more focused to
    run Windows games? I think I heard about it some time ago, but don't remember the name.

    Thanks

    So you installed it from source ? Or from an RPM ?

    You should not run "winecfg" as root. Unless you plan to use Wine as root.

    Yes,yes, from an RPM.
    Do you know why I can't delete it, by the way?
    Do you know where it usually "installs itself"?

    Thanks, mate.

    Sorry the other message doesn't allow me to show it, so I open another one.
    This is the output:

    bash-3.1$ rpm -e wine
    エラー: can't create transaction lock on /var/lib/rpm/__db.000
    bash-3.1$
