Hy list,

I'm trying to run some selfextracting *.exe files.

In many cases wine fails to do it's job and spits this error msg:

- -
 ----------------------------------------------------------------------
- ----------- err:virtual:map_image Standard load address for a Win32
 program (0x00400000) not available - security-patched kernel ?

wine: could not load L"Z:\\mnt\\cdrom1\\palm desktop\\setup.exe" as
Win32 binary
- -
 ----------------------------------------------------------------------
- -----------

As it complains about a kernel patch I figured out that you Fedora
people would know what causes this in order to avoid the problem.
GR-Security perhaps?

It's important for me to get wine running properly, because the *.exe
files I am trying to install are some PalmOS aplicactions which are
shipped in this format (PowerOne and the Win32 version of Acrobat
Reader). (So, a way to extract from selfextracting *.exe files would
also help).

Would building a vanilla 2.4.x kernel be of any help?
Would I have troubles within my standard FC1 instalation?
If I decide to build a FC1 kernel source (2.4.24, surely, or later if
available); what setting should I change in order to  be able to work
with wine.

P.D.: If the solution implyes a high security risk I would prefer to
avoid it or at least use the new kernel only for particular tasks or
perhaps ask a Windoze owner to open it for me.

TIA
