[SOLVED!] WINE: libSM.so.6: cannot open shared object file= fail

Greetings,

So today I decided I'd play an old windows game with my son. It's been a while since I've played wine game with him... since my last reinstallthat I did just for the S&G to play with the new install method.

Anyways, I go through the motions, installing wine and all that. Then I go and click on the game to run. Nothing.

So, I go and try to run it through command line. I get this fun stuff:

 wine H5_Game.exe
Fontconfig warning: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/50-user.conf", line 9: reading configurations from ~/.fonts.conf is deprecated.
Fontconfig warning: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/50-user.conf", line 9: reading configurations from ~/.fonts.conf is deprecated.
Fontconfig warning: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/50-user.conf", line 9: reading configurations from ~/.fonts.conf is deprecated.

Application tried to create a window, but no driver could be loaded.                                     
Unknown error (127).

I search the mighty internets and try many different things. But I cannot seem to find the file that gives "libSM.so.6" or whatever is needed to make this work. So defeated, I come to you to ask that you please give me a leg up here.

Thanks, in advance, for any and all help!

$ pkgfile libSM.so.6
extra/libsm

Have you tried that?

Honestly, I did not know about pkgfile.

So, I installed it and determined that while I have libsm, I was missing lib32_libsm. So installing that fixed my issue with WINE.

Thanks for the leg up Trilby! Most appreciated!
