I've read through some archives on the users mailing list and found some answers to getting Wine 20020122 going. I didn't have to change much with the default way tools/wineinstall. Here's my questions 1) Does Wine run programs that live in a native Windows XP vfat partition using the native dlls? 2) Does Wine run Office XP, even if it is buggy? 3) Can it run programs such as Propellerheads' Reason? I am currently running Gentoo Linux with kernel 2.4.18-pre3. My system is running great. It lives on half of the hard drive, while my WIndows XP Professional lives on the other half of the hard drive. I would like to be able to run Outlook XP (Just because we have Exchange here at work :(... Exchange is junk, if you ask me). I have wine running using my /mnt/windows vfat mount as the C:\. I have modified my ~/.wine/config to reflect my C:\Documents and Settings\Joe\ user Profile and added some PATH arguments to include. But besides that, I haven't done much with the wine setup. If I run wine "C:\\Program Files\\mirc\\mirc32.exe"& it will run mirc32.exe very quickly. It then allows me to connect to IRC and join some channels. It then freezes after about 30 seconds. I normally use KVirc for IRC in linux, which I prefer actually, but I am just testing wine at this point. Eventually I will try to get games going. I know I have a few questions here, but whatever help anyone can give is appreciated. Thanks in advance, Joe Hoot _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@winehq.com http://www.winehq.com/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
