why pay good money for binary-only kernel modules, when you can get and use wine for free?
wine is in heavy devel though, so you'll never exactly what will run on it, and what wont. updates sometimes fix some apps, and break others. usually, if you have a specific app you want to run, download the newest wine and try it..if it dont work, get a version a month old, and try it, and keep working backwards till you have one
want. at one time, i had a 'magic version', that would run Word97, Excel97, Cognose Reportwriter, Winamp, Mirc32, IBM
I just installed the source for wine from the 6.2 distro.
I end up with a wine*.tar.gz and a wine*.diff file.
What do I do with the DIFF file?
Are DIFF files cumulative or will I have to download all the
newer ones?

and all the stuff i *needed* at the time. cant remember what version that was though..:(
The last I heard, Wine would only run Windows 3.1 applications. Do you know if that's changed?
