you complain about security in wine and run it as root? even if i have the strongest doubts, that there is need for running wine as root
It won't work as non-root, and I could waste days finding out whatever's wrong with my X configuration (which is the default as it comes with Gentoo, btw).
?! You're saying that you can't get wine to work for you as non-root? Do other X applications work for you as non-root?
Did you try that with a fresh "test" user?
