I think there is a mis-understanding in that you have to run ulimit -n 
to up the number of available files as root.  Running Wine as root is 
not a good idea as the inherent safety of running it in userspace is 
diminished.  It also prevents running Wine in the future as a particular 
user IF you ran it as sudo or as su (not su -).  Running Wine as root 
should build the Wine 'fake' structure in root's home directory.  I'll 
have to try this with my Linux installation.
