Have you tried using Wine? It should work on there (as reported by http://appdb.winehq.org)
I get the same error as Jeremey:
'Could not load 'CARDS.DLL' required by 'FREECELL', error=21'
with Wine 20050310.
freecell.exe and cards.dll are in the windows directory, cards.dll is in windows/system too. Both come from a win98se installation disk.
This seems to be a regression, as it worked for me in former versions of Wine (sorry, can't recall which ones).
Now thanks to various hints, I've played a bit with the win98se and/or winxp versions of freecell and cards, and, for those interested, that's what I get:
a) both from win98se: no joy a') freecell from win98se, cards loaded builtin: no joy a'') both from win98se, cards.dll.so REMOVED: ok b) both from winxp (cards loaded native): ok c) freecell from winxp, cards loaded builtin: ok
So, now c) is my standard - no native dll, no dlloverrides ...
BTW, solitaire (sol.exe from win98se) runs without cards (WINEDEBUG=+loaddll wine sol doesn't show any cards.dll loaded)
