okay , i know what got it working (U won't like this ...), I had to copy the missing? { or all BOINC?? } dlls to :
cp *.dll ~bob/.wine/drive_c/windows/system
it apparently had nothing to do with winecgf, and i was not using the gui, but it was exactly this step that got it working on my home machine this evening
P.S. Is it just me or does Wine have a hard time telling when the user is active . My wine boinc would not start up from hibernation until i changed my prefs to "can work at all times"

Robert,
I'am not a wine expert either but I did, lucky me, had no trouble at all. I had nothing to copy whatsoever. with the advice on frankscorner.org, as i told, i installed boinc as follows:
from frankscorner.org (thank you frank !!)
Installshield Installers
"Many programs use an Installshield installer to install.
In order to get these installers running you need to install DCOM98 first.
DCOM98 can be downloaded here.
Type WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ole32=n" wine dcom98.exe to install DCOM98."
After that i installed the boinc client with:
"To run the application installer it's necessary that ole32.dll, oleaut32.dll and rpcrt4.dll are loaded as native when the setup program is run.
To do that type WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ole32,oleaut32,rpcrt4=n" wine boinc_4.19_windows_intelx86.exe"
I could just start boinc then after first exporting those winedebug stuff.
if i log out, the wine connection to the X server is KILLED, and the Wine run goes away (dies). Unfortunatly, this logout has to be done as my kids have their Linux logins. Any ideas of work-arounds anyone.
P.S. in benchmarks my 2000+ AMD (1666mhz) is blowing away my dual 3GHZ Intels at work (both using wine). ANY BETS they compiled the windows version with AMD optimizations !!!!!!!

Set up an Xvnc server.
/usr/X11R6/bin/Xvnc -query localhost -geometry 1280x1024 -depth 16 -alwaysshared -dontdisconnect -interface $INTERFACE :1 -desktop "No beer, but wine"
Of course $INTERFACE needs to set accordingly. Important is here: -dontdisconnect and maybe -alwaysshared. Then you can log off without loosing any cobblestone ;^)

You should have more virtual screens avail in linux ??
Type CTR and ALT and F1 or any other F-key (F6 is max) to get another text screen; if you run in command line mode it should be sufficient and you don't have to log out.
Pressing CTR ALT F7 brings back the graphical screen (The X-server uses that) for your Kids and for your other work.
You could even run, as I do, wine in a background by ending the exec. with the & sign, so your Xterm or normal terminal becomes free after a while for other purposes.

Give it a try with 'xhost +' then start the server and wine, if it works OK then, you should figure out on what authority the prgramm is running;
You get similar problems when logged in as root in an xterm and starting a graphical application from there. Because root is not authorised to display on the local user screenserver.

You need to edit the xdm-config file.
In my file, I did comment out the following two lines:
!DisplayManager*authorize: true
!DisplayManager._1.authorize: true
Not sure if you need to restart xdm?
And I did start Xvnc in some /etc/rc[3|5].d script.
If wine -- sorry I never used it -- can run without graphics, then you could start the job with help of nohup in the background.
$ nohup &
Thanks guys, got Xvnc to work last night; i RTFMed. i'm finally starting to rack up some points now that I am using WINE (no INVALID results in a day or more ...). i now have a few more points to play with tonight ( XDM /etc/rcXX.d ) ...
