You posted your output when trying to start the program but you omitted 
to include from which directory you attempted this. I have found that 
wine-20040615 calls the 'c' drive "drive_c' and not the traditional 'c', 
so maybe please check this. Try $ cd .wine/drive_c/Program\ 
Files/<Program name> and then issue $ wine <program.exe>

If you still cannot get anywhere then it is possible I do not fully 
understand your problem yet.

If something happens to show that your program is somewhere 'alive' but 
it still fails, then try the following and post your results:

$ WINEDEBUG=+loaddll,+process wine <program name.exe> [ Be sure your are 
within the directory that the *.exe resides within first.]

Hope this can help 'cause I have been trying to get AutoCAD sorted myself and seek clues from this list by looking at others' problems.
