I've tried to get Turbo Lister to work with wine for some time now. It
seems to be close but...
As far as I can tell, the problem with TL is actually with the database
it uses, Microsoft MDB. If the wine developers could get the Microsoft
Data Access (MDA) tools working (and the BDE maybe? :) I think a lot of
other non-functional apps would just start working.

Thanks,
Rick Knight

I *do* use Turbo Lister, like it, and am very interested in getting it
working under Linux.  I most recently tried the 20051005 CVS version
of Wine.  It appears to install perfectly, it accepts your eBay login
info, it downloads your account information from eBay, then page
faults immediately after drawing the main application window.  I've
submitted a bug report [1] and an App DB entry (hasn't appeared yet).
I don't believe my bug is a duplicate of 2873, though it is also in
X11drv code.  I may try looking at it myself, but there's a learning
curve for me as I haven't done any Wine development yet (though I've
done extensive Windows development.)  If anyone is interesting in
tackling this I'd appreciate it.

Have you tested Turbo Lister under Wine lately?
It wasn't working in April, I think, but lots has improved since then.
Here's where to post test results if you do:
