RHEL5 - Download via EPEL was success but with errors

Errors keep coming back when I try to configure WINE. This is on RHEL5, and I do not have sound support installed (if it makes any difference).

Why are you running it as root?

It sounds like you have a 3D graphics driver problem.
Does glxgears work for you?

Also please never run wine as root

I do not use glxgears - should I?

I am not sure why but now under 'root' I can get to winecfg GUI and c: maping is there. However if I switch to other user I get these errors and nothing happens. Does this still point to the Graphic drivers?

Application tried to create a window, but no driver could be loaded.
Make sure that your X server is running and that $DISPLAY is set correctly.

Are you logged on as normal user or root?

Yes, but it's just a little test program, there's nothing big about using it.
Just run it and see if it displays whirling gears. If it did, your 3d
is set up properly.

Good (except for that part about root

No. That points to you logging in as root and then doing "su user",
which isn't going to work because plain users should not be able
to display things on root's X window server.
Better to log in as a normal user, and then for those moments when
you need root, su or sudo to root.

I tried logging in as user and it works. I see the drive mappings and winecfg GUI comes up. This is excellent news

...

Now, I have to spend some time and figure out how you download applications and configure them in the most beneficial way to compliment multiple user setup.
