this has been discussed alot before, and most probably searching for one minute will give you the answer..
no you can't use wine to run i386 programs on an arm processor, as wine is not an emulator
w ine
i s
n ot
e mulator
so using wine alone, this can't be done. the wine package in the repository is there to run windows programs recompiled for arm only..
if you are dying to run a program compiled for x86, you can still do so by using Qemu in user mode, this combined with wine will let you run the program at a miserable speed.
you can do so by installing wine on your PC, install the program you want to use, make sure it's running, then clone your linux partition, and from the n900 install qemu, then copy qemu-i386-static into /usr/bin of your cloned linux partition, then chroot into it.
now you can attempt to run the program by changing your directory to where the program is located, then using wine./program.exe
this is not reliable and you may run into several Qemu crashes and segfaults..

Oh, by the way - how is your project coming along? All the threads you started a couple of weeks ago have been very quiet...
