<DIV></DIV>>As I mentioned, this is not related to wine. Your error says that the
<DIV></DIV>>program wants to open a display to you and can't. You have to fix this
<DIV></DIV>>first. So:
<DIV></DIV>>
<DIV></DIV>>- after you shh to the linux box try to open any application that uses a
<DIV></DIV>> display (e.g. xterm); does this work? No! Make this to work first,
<DIV></DIV>> then continue with wine!
<DIV></DIV>>- type (on the linux box) echo $DISPLAY to see where your display is
<DIV></DIV>> forwarded to; it has to be something like :10.0 to be a forwarding
<DIV></DIV>> over ssh; if it's not you have to enable forwarding of X11 via ssh
<DIV></DIV>> first
