[Wine] Having an issue with Gecko

Hi,

It depends how you installed WINE, if you installed using Synaptic I would
double check to make sure that you also installed the "wine1.2-gecko"
package. If this package is already installed you could erase your ".wine"
directory and re run the installer. Sometimes starting with a fresh ".wine"
directory can clear up any issues you may be having. You can delete your
".wine" directory by running "rm -rf ~/.wine" in the terminal. Note that
deleting your ".wine" directory will also delete any applications you've
installed using WINE.

If you build WINE from source, it normally display a message dialog asking
if you would like to download and install wine-gecko (at least it does for
me) or you could follow the directions on this page
http://wiki.winehq.org/Gecko (although I've never done it this way).

Hope this helps.
