[TriLUG] Transgaming WineX question

I know some people are running WineX so I thought maybe
I'd see if anyone here can help me.
I can get Diablo 2 LoD running nicely under WineX 2.01
but only as my root user. This leads me to believe I
have a permission problem somewhere. I'm running the latest
version of Gentoo and I will supply some info that might be
pertinent now. (I feel like it's a permissions problem for
my non-root user to open the CDROM device in some raw mode
for the copy protection reading that the executable wants
to perform. I get no errors or messages when trying with
non-root user, it just sits there with no windows popping up
and no messages forever. Like I said, it works perfectly
with my root user though.)
INFO:
[From /etc/fstab]
/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,ro,user,exec 0 0
ls -laF /dev/cdroms/cdrom0
lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 33 Dec 31 1969 /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 -> ../ide/host0/bus1/target0/lun0/cd
ls -laF /dev/ide/host0/bus1/target0/lun0/cd
brw------- 1 myuser cdrom 22, 0 Dec 31 1969 /dev/ide/host0/bus1/target0/lun0/cd
I can't think of any more info to provide right now.
Anyone have any ideas? (I dislike running winex as root as you
might imagine)
