I run WINE on Suse9.0 and it runs fine (I dont know wether Suse9.0 has utf-8
as default). As far as I know there are at least two wrong configurations
which cause a
"Warning: the specified Windows directory L"C:\\Windows" is not accessible"
First, your fake-windows drive ("c:") is not set up correctly or the
permissions on the fake-win directory are wrong. (By the way in newer WINE
versions there are symlinks in .wine/dosdevices not in the drive sections in
the wine config file)
Second, the path two the windows system directory in wine config is wrong.
I never experienced any other problems accessing a fake-win directory. If you
post your drives section/dosdevices directory listing and the permissions on
your win drive, maybe I can help you.
cu,
Stefan
