You could start with looking for entries in the Applications Database
for these programs. Also without a name, there is little we can do to
assist you.

i have wine 1.2.2 and im useing ubuntu 11.04

You are going to hear that you should really update to the latest
development version, 1.3.24. You'll have to add the wine development
ppa to do this.

What version of Unbuntu are you using? The 11.04 Wine Development ppa should have at a minimum 1.3.23 and there are reports that it has 1.3.24. You can visit the Downloads page from the main WineHQ page and this should have a download link for Ubuntu 11.04.

Start with one specific program. Post complete terminal output. If it's too big, please use pastebin.

The Wine FAQ at http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ has two sections on running
programs from the terminal and getting log files.
