Run it using a terminal, copy/pate output to forum using a pastebin link

This was my output:

And or can we get a Screenshot?
It sounds like its not even starting the EQw.exe in WINE.

Check to make sure you are running a 32bit instance of wine by Going to Configure and check the wine version. You might have to hit the "+" button to get the full listing and or to install a diff version to test.

Also, I'm the dude who wrote the TAKP wiki thing, so if you have comments or suggestions I welcome them via PM.

Hi, what is the TAKP wiki? I haven't seen that yet... Also, I have attached a screenshot of my terminal output (same as I have in the quote above) and my wine version (which appears to be 32 bit as well).

I'm sure there's a simple solution to this, but I've found that running the EQ executable from any kind of shortcut or terminal prompt results in the error Boolean described.

My fix for this that has always worked is to target the executable directly from the folder where EQ is installed in the dosdevices/C:/ProgramFiles/Sony area. When run from inside the folder with all the gamefiles EQ seems to work fine.

Also, consider using Q4Wine if PlayonLinux is giving hassle. It's my go-to Wine GUI for running Windows executables.

Ubuntu 12.04 here, I know i'm way behind the times but it's so stable for everything I use it for I don't wanna mess with it =p

I've tried the direct execution method but that causes the same error. I don't know if PlayOnLinux is causing the error but I'm not suspecting it. I've used it for SC2 and it works fine.
