Thanks for the feedback. I'm happy to say that Darwine worked very well. In fact, better than I had hoped. Installation, of course was very simple and not only does it load the program I want (Sturmovik IL2-1946) but I tried it on some others where it worked well, too. The only problem I have now is that IL2 is not recognizing my joystick and rudder pedals, both USB devices. I think this is likely a different problem unrelated to Wine, though. Thanks again for the quick replies.
