i quickly gave up getting ie to run, since the pull-down menues didn't
even exist when i tried it, and i needed them to change the network
settings.

did it actually install? (ie: check the installation dir) you might be
able to run it anyway..
word 97 runs ok(ish) for me, but i'm running an already installed copy
(off the mounted windows drive)

some of the past Wine Weekly News (www.winehq.com somewhere) have some
good articles on choosing DLLs, setting up no-windows installs, etc.
if you want a real laugh, try running explorer. if it can't write to
some directories (like i'm going to let it do that), it thinks its
doing a fresh windows install and does the whole "setting up your
hardware" bit.
(i've just patched a bug in wine (i hope; its still compiling) that
should let me play heroes3 ;)
