A workaround:

1. If you delete the entry in .wine/user.reg:

[Software\\Advanced Chemistry Development (ACD)\\Size] 1239142252
"ACDLabs"=hex:....

running chemsketch again seems to work. Unfortunately, when you exit, this
registry entry is recreated, and so you need to delete it again.

A script is mentioned in this website (Polish, I think):
http://uran.blog.root.cz/2008/11/06/wine-a-chemsketch/ (comment #10).

2. Another thing you can do is start chemsketch from the command line with:

$ wine start /MAX ~/.wine/drive_c/ACDLABS11/CHEMSK.EXE

Of course, you can wrap this in a script if you want to. If you want to run
other ACDLABS program, you need to run it the same way, i.e., start /MAX
<program name>. Running it from ACDHOST does not seem to work.

I'm using chemsketch 12, but I tried chemsketch 11 and it worked. Running on
Ubuntu 8.10, wine 1.1.18

I hope this helps.
