Hmm. I just checked the wiki / user manual and it says a few times to include winecfg as part of the installation process (http://winehq.org/site/docs/wineusr-guide/introduction and the general page-turning of the manual). A case of RTFM and then ignore it?  [Rolling Eyes] 

Seriously though, isn't it a problem if the manual that we're supposed to be directing people to is giving misleading information, especially if it is triggering false bugs? With the influx of noobs since the forum and the upcoming v1.0 release, it sounds like documentation deficiencies may have the potential to trigger significant additional work depending on the true accuracy.
