...r a known anomoly. A mate of mine runs MYOB Premier (the brilliant (not!) multi-user accounting package which claims to not support SAMBA (or visa versa). I've had it running glitch free for two years on a Samba share off a linux box. They are so pleased that they are going the next step to Win4Lin Server Edition and Thin-client Linux X for desktop apps which have an OSS equivelant. Currently they need to keep MYOB. Problem is that when they run Win4Lin thin-client from the server that also runs the samba share, the only way to share the accounting database with the other windows users is t...

Anybody get win4lin 5.0 running on CentOs? I have a Ibm Thinkpad 600 running centos 3.3. I tried running the win4lin installer which downloaded a supported kernel and installed but when I went to reboot the laptop, the drivers for my wireless card were missing along with usb support. Then when the laptop went into run...

Has anyone been able to make the Quickbooks Delivery Agent work under Win4Lin? I find that it slows the system down to a crawl and it never completes it's task. Removing the Delivery Agent is not a great solution because Quickbooks won't perform certain functions, like writing a paycheck, without it. Has anyone tried Quickbooks Pro 2001 under Win4Lin? does it work an...

Does anybody know what is happening with Netraverse the company who makes Win4Lin? They appear to have closed down, their offices are shut down and phones disconnected. Their internal user newsgroup is saying most of their developers have been fired. Their Web site (www.netraverse.com) looks like business for ususal. I wonder what happens if you try to buy anything from them -...

It looks bad from the (possibly outdated) list on the winehq web site. I am also extremely interested in running r14 on Wine or possibly some other emulator. Any suggestions other than WINE???

Is it true that NeTraverse just went under? Does anyone know any details? Do they have and plans to put Win4Lin into the public domain so that the Linux community can continue to support it?

Hi! I would like to install Win98SE as a guest operating system on my Linux Mandrake. Is it possible using wine? If so, how to do it? Shall I leave the free Win partition that will be used during this installation process, or maybe it's not necessary? And do you know anything about the possibilities of windows installed in this way: will all my games and programs run properly? Also the sound

I'm new to the list and to Wine. I loaded wine wine-0.9.7-i486-S10.2 into Slackware 10.1 in order to run the Forte Agent newsreader. It was setup and running under Win4lin which I have discontinued. What would be the syntax to load Forte Agent and specify the old "start-in" directory used under Win4lin? wine ./agent something_for_start-in_directory ?? Does Wine have the concept of a Desktop with icons or is winefile what we must use? Thanks, Larry...

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Is it possible to setup wine without a Windows partition? I have a Debian 2.2-r2 system and want to run a few Windows apps, mostly games, but don't want to go through all the bs of resizing a partition, creating a new one and putting Windows on my laptop. Any chance of being able to do it without a dedicated partition? - -- Darryl L. Pierce

...ying to run a windows program called ACR with Wine on a Mandrake system. The install goes beautifully (thanks to all of those hardworking programmers!). But when I try to run ACR it complains that Windows is being run in Debug mode and quits. This is also what happened when trying to run ACR on Win4Lin. Does this make running ACR hopeless on any emmulator or is there a way around this? Thanks!

OK- A dumb question. Will a "generic"(kernel.org) kernel work with Centos 4? My reason for asking- I'm needing to upgrade from RH9, and would rather go ahead and go with 4 for the 2.6 kernel, but I need a patched kernel (Win4Lin), and I'm not sure they will offer a prepatched version (though they probably will for EL4). Thanks! -- Chris Bryant

Hello list reader, Did people succed in trying to run Delphi applications with wine ??? Well, if they didn't work we can always try to use kylix to get them work. But I suspect that we will have to go with lot of rewriting because of the type of these applications : graphical intensive ones. Any ideas about that ? Thanks ! Guy

I had the latest wine running under winblows 98 SE for a week or two with no problems, then I installed winblows 2000 and now I cannot get wine to work. It is important for me to get it running again since I run United Devices cancer research agent (http://members.ud.com) 24/7 to help them find a cure for cancer. Is wine compatible with Win2k, or will I need to re-install 98 again? -- Interested

I'm curious about the feasability and possibility of using Wine as a basis for running as much MS code under Linux as possible. Let me explain: Windows XP (and most of it's ilk before it) don't support remote booting, that is using a diskless workstation and booting the OS from the network. Linux, of course readily provides that functionality. However, switching to linux is not

I have a Win4Lin 3.0 Terminal Server that, for reasons the developers can''t explain or fix, requires me to use MDK 9.2 (there''s a NumLock issue that occurs in every other distribution I''ve tried, except MDK 9.2). This server is fairly old and needs replacing. I have another Linux server...
