Summary: CONFLICT BETWEEN WINE AND VLC - Can't have both
                    installed !
           Product: Wine

        OS/Version: Linux

Conflict between WINE V1.01 and VLC (version 0.9.4 Grishenko).

These are the versions which apt-get installs for my version of UbuntuEEE.

Depending on the order of installation, the problems which occur can vary:

a. Inability of Browse C: drive in WINE

b. WINE (i.e., EXE files) that have been installed using winecfg do not show uo
in the drop down submenu from Applications, WINE drop-down menu (using GNOME
desktop).

c. The worst case: clicking on Browse C: drive gets interpreted as a VLC
Playlist, whereupon VLC goes completely haywire, trying to "play" various DLLs
and such.

I have concluded that I cannot have WINE if I want VLC on this machine (ASUS
EEE).

Help !
