copy the entire program dir that Hearts lives on your DOS partition to
your Linux home dir, enter that dir in a terminal window and then on the
command line call wine and name the executable you wish to run.
Example:
wine hearts.exe <ENTER>
If all is well and you're not missing any .dll files or any other support
files the game will run just fine. That is as long as it's not a 32 bit
game. Wine doesn't do very well with 32 bit programs yet.
