It works for me too, with fml.exe, downloading the full client (under my Debian Sid). My output is the next: fixme:ntdll:NtLockFile I/O completion on lock not implemented yet fixme:dsalsa:IDsDriverBufferImpl_SetVolumePan (0x1321c8,0x132960): stub > > > The "get_url" message in the above console log seems to be in regards > to the "Sign Up" button, which appears to be broken.

I have a dsl router, a cisco router (877W), and connected to the router, an access point, it offers dhcp to my client. I tried direct connect using cable, from my laptop to the dsl router, and it doesn't work (using fml_launcher.exe). I will try ubunt 8.10 again with wine 1.1.12, I will comment with it later. > > > Here's a screenshot: > http://img19.imageshack.us/img19/2936/screenshotf.png > > I'm on Ubuntu 8.10 x86-64.
