The older version of Win4Lin doesn't run on the SuSE 2.6 kernels, but I 
believe can be used on patched vanilla kernels.

This was one of the reasons I delayed updating to the 2.6 kernels.  When 
Win4Lin Pro came out I updated and installed it, but it was very slow, 
unusable in fact, maybe others had better luck.

I ended up installing VMware instead, which I have to say is excellent, 
 using VM machines of XP Pro and Solaris 10.
