I reported earlier that I was getting a lot of error messages out of Wine running Family Tree Maker. As requested I updated to the beta version of Wine, but since doing so nobody has responded with any followup. I now find that after running FTM for a long period of time that Wine hangs up.

Has anyone tested AutoCad 2000 with any recent wine ? Once upon a time I got Autocad R13 to work, only toolbars and screenrefresh was not working to 100%, then it broke completely, and 10 months ago when I tested with AutoCad 2000 it was still broken. Has anyone done any testing recently ? AutoCad and Quark express are two very important pieces of software for wine, since they both lack

Hi all, I've checked the archives and can't find anything regarding the above so here goes: Has anyone had any luck getting GTA2 or other games that require DirectX 6.1 support working under Wine so far?

I am two applications away from being MS-free. The second is Photo-Paint, but that's another message. The first is CompuServe 2.6.1, a/k/a WinCim. If I try to run cs261.exe under wine, it crashes with a blank error window after attempting to run InstallShield. If I just try to copy the files from my old computer and run wincim.exe under wine, absolutely nothing happens (which is absolutely

I went to the trouble of setting up Visual Sourcesafe on a Linux system recently. There was a fair amount of futzing required, so I've documented what I had to do at http://www.kegel.com/linux/vss-howto.html Comments and corrections welcome.

This would resque our old machine which is getting left behind when it comes to hardware (and it would also put fun back into computing). The problem is that if I convert the only machine our family has to Linux, it would mean that an important program, Photoshop, which we use everyday has to be abandoned. This
