Can't Find Winecfg on Suse 10.2 ??

Hey,I just installed SUSE 10.2 and added the wine Repo to my yast,when I go to the "software management" and search for Wine I can only see :

Wine
Wineasio
Winedoors
Winetools

I've installed these,now when I try to start Winecfg by running using one of the 2 commands "$ /usr/local/bin/winecfg" or "$ winecfg" in my shell I get a message saying : "bash: $: command not found"

I can't understand what I'm doing wrong,so any help would be much appreciated.

Try running without the $. $ is a symbol saying put this in terminal.
# is similar, but means run as root in terminal.

Hence, when you see:
$ winecfg

Really, they mean:
run terminal
type 'winecfg' without the quotes
Press enter.

"winecfg" is part of Wine itself - you do not need to isntall it separately.
