In openSUSE 11.2 x86_64 the "Kickoff Application Launcher" puts the
picasa eexecutable in wine (one line):
env WINEPREFIX="/home/pat/.wine" wine "C:\Program 
Files\Google\Picasa3\Picasa3.exe"

I add an alias (one line)
alias picasa3='wine "/home/pat/.wine/dosdevices/c:/Program 
Files/Google/Picasa3/Picasa3.exe"'
