I picked up some data from the nearest hospital to take to the specialist at the next one, with whom I had an appt.; it came on a CD, which is marked "DICOM Volume with GE Centricity Viewer." When I put the CD into a drive, Fedora 11 auto-mounts it, and fails to find the autorun.exe, which is right there in plain sight. (F11 knows it exists, and asks whether to run it, and then fails. This is currently normal for most M$-intended media.) So I open the file, find autorun.exe myself, and right-click on it. The first option I get is to open it with Wine, as expected. When I accept that, I get a huge popup, which I can't seem to copy, saying only that it needs "scripting support" and urging me, obscenely enough, to get M$'s so-called browser 5.0 or higher. (I take all mention of that abominable browser as an obscenity.) I thought that browser, or a cleaner clone of it, of level at least 7, was an integral part of Wine. Worst of all, I could swear I've brought home similar media before, and viewed them, or the parts I wanted, with earlier releases of wine under earlier releases of Fedora ... -- Beartooth Staffwright, Neo-Redneck Not Quite Clueless Power User I have precious (very precious!) little idea where up is.
