I do not use wine, but I do know that 9.3 is pretty old. 10.1 is much more recent. > * Has anyone tried to create customised installation cds for OpenSuse?

Disclaimers like this are useless. I can not recieve anything in error. All that I recieve was send to me on purpose. If it contains any confidential information then it is up to you to keep it that way. The moment I recieve it, it isn't confidential anymore. So how do we know this message is official business of UMN? I asume it is. houghi -- To have a nice mailinglist experience, follow the guidelines below: > Please do not toppost.
