i think freespire is debian based, in which case you can use CNR (that might be in the non-free linspre only - i dont know, apt-get (a command) or synaptic (a gui frontend for apt-get)

e.g

apt-get update
apt-get install wine

I did use cnr after and it worked. However, I switched os's and im now using Kubuntu. I find this has much more support.

synaptic and apt are the methods for kubuntu, or you can use the add/remove thing (but i think thats only on ubuntu, i dont use K)
