First off, I'm glad to see another Radio Mobile user out there! I run the
program at work on Windows, but never tried it under Wine.

I am running Slackware-current (32-bit), Wine 0.9.59, and except for a ton
of fixme's scrolling by, the program seems to work just fine for me. I have
not had any problems with FreeImage.dll loading, and all file formats seem
to work successfully. Whether this is from running a 32-bit OS, I don't know
for sure.

Here is what I did to get it running:

1. Create the folder Radio_Mobile in ~/.wine/drive_c/
2. Download and unzip the program files into the Radio_Mobile directory
3. (key step for me) Install the required DLL (msvbvm60.dll) using
winetricks:

$ wget http://www.kegel.com/wine/winetricks
$ sh winetricks vb6run

4. Run the program:

$ cd ~/.wine/drive_c/Radio_Mobile
$ wine rmweng.exe

5. Extract a map (I just let it automatically download the map data for my
Lat/Long), and click File -> Save picture as...

Maybe this will help. If not, perhaps someone else can provide some
suggestions. I'm still getting my feet wet with Wine.

Good luck!
