--- Comment #2 from nathan.n saturn_systems@yahoo.com 2010-11-01 04:46:32 CDT --- Tried with LTSPICE IV version 4.10a (Oct 22 2010) (which is the Freely available version) and the programmer has unfortunately made the program wine aware as when you go to view help it comes up with the following:
-- Unable to launch Xchm
For help under WINE/Linux, Please open the HtmlHelp File, C:\Program Files\LTC\LTspiceIV\LTspicehelp.chm, with xchm or refer to file http://LTspice.linear-tech.com/software/scad3.pdf --
Which means you have to start the program with the following parameter to work around the wine workaround.
wine scad3.exe -nowine
This brings up the help file and shows the subject tree on the left and the help pages appear as normal
The help file only suffers from the same issues as bug#23416 (PAF5 help content panel is blank for most chapters.) and bug#17021 ([winhelp] CHM help menu only shows "Printer icons")
this bug can be closed.

--- Comment #6 from Sergio Callegari scallegari@arces.unibo.it 2010-11-01 13:45:20 CDT --- The bug was initially reported, because /with the nowine parameter/ the help pages were blank.
The latest wine releases have fixed the bug, though.
So also for me it is ok to close the bug.
Please, close as "fixed" rather than as "invalid".
