dumb wine question

I just installed Solaris 10 on my computer 2 days ago and I still want to be able to play windows games. I have heard about about wine so I downloaded the package and added it. Now I have no clue what to do. I cannot run the command wine in the terminal without getting "wine: not found" and if I type

# '/opt/cfw/wine/bin/wine' filename

it tries to create the '//.wine' directory but comes back with "wine: not found"

I am relatively new to using operating systems other than windows.

I got a little further than that but I dead ended. I still have not found a definitive 'yes i got it working on sol10'

I tried Wine with Windows and only ended up wining about wine.

Best option is to just dual boot.

I spent quite a bit of time trying to get Wine working on Solairs, and failed... Works real well on Linux though...

codeweavers make and absolutely excellent product for linux based on wine. Too bad Schwartz hasn't slid a little money their way to port it to x86 solaris.

Oh well, I guess I will keep my eyes open for anyone that has success and continue to mess with it on my own. I was originally planning on dual booting but given that there was no windows xp disk around when I got the blue screen of death (for the last time), I just installed Solaris. Thanks anyways.
