Hi folks,

I installed the latest wine tarball.  For some reason no applications
work.  I'm using on a Redhat 8.0/Windows XP dual boot system.  Starting
very simple applicatiosn doesnt work:

Media Player:

[root at mango Windows Media Player]# wine wmplayer.exe
fixme:reg:_nt_dump_lf unknown Win XP node id 0x686c: do we need to add
support for it ?
fixme:reg:_nt_dump_lf unknown Win XP node id 0x686c: do we need to add
support for it ?

Movie Maker:

[root at mango Movie Maker]# wine moviemk.exe

That same message about 'unknown Win XP node id' seems to pop up.  Does
anyone know what that means, or how I could fix this?  I remember media
player working a year ago, so I'm confused why it doesn't work now.

Thanks for any help.
