I've been asked this question about getting ptopengui running with
debian linux with wine. Has anyone else got wine working?

I have it working on two boxes (redhat 7.3 and 8.0), neither have
windows partitions.
I couldn't get it to work with "Codeweavers wine", so I had to
revert back to the standard redhat version. The main difference I
could tell was that redhat can run the .exe file directly
('./program.exe' rather than 'wine program.exe') - This seems to be
important since ptopengui needs to be able to run other .exe
programs.
Looking around, this functionality is enabled on this system by a
boot script: '/etc/init.d/wine start'.

I'm not a wine expert in any way, in fact this is the only windows
application I have ever had working properly (it's exactly the same
in both windows and linux).
