- I've even got a winemine game on my pc now, lol.  Realizing my error before
- I configured the pregrams (I already recieved messages about possible
- conflicts), I tried to uninstall the program. It didn't show up in the
- installed programs since I hadn't yet configured it?  I tried to delete the
- files via the "yum remove wine" command and several others.  

What does 

	yum list installed 

tell you is installed?

I suspect you received an error message from ``yum remove wine''
was along the lines of ``No Match for argument: wine''

I would suggest trying

	yum list installed 'wine-*'

to see what wine modules are installed, and

	yum remove 'wine-*'

to remove those packages.


Good luck!
