I use it on a 4.7 at work; the only apps I use are the word-, excel- and ppt viewers for the occasional doc/xl/ppt files I receive as attachments. Corporate windows environment, you know :-) It's a bitch to configure and integrate with mutt. And all the messages about font diddling look scary, but it does what I want, viewing the files without rebooting or buying vmware.

I use it a lot for 1 application, but I mostly use my version of a 6 month old version of -current for large parts of -current, and a 2.4 year old version of wine. Known problems: (1) rfork() in -current (not my version) was temporarily broken. This broke the old version of wine though not an 0.4 year old one. (2) Wine apparently lost something in the screen redrawing methods used by the application (they became too slow and glitchy), so versions newer than the 2.4 year old one are unusuable for me.

From: Julian Elischer [EMAIL PROTECTED] Is the re ANYONE that uses wine on -current...? for that matter, a -current user that uses wine on 4.x? I set up wine on current to run D2GS (Diablo II Game Server) using XVFB. I haven't used wine for any other purposes than this.

I don't _use_ wine on -current, but I can tell you the brief experience that caused me to give up on it. I wanted to install wine to run Crimson Editor, which is a fairly nice text editor for windows. There's no Linux or BSD version. The wine website claims that Crimson works under wine. I spent about 4 or 5 hours trying to get Crimson to install and/or run. While I was at it, I tried a number of other wine apps to see if I was doing things correctly. I tried Getting America's Army to work, even Windows explorer or IE. The only thing I ever got to run under wine was puTTY ... which is one Windows app I have absolutely zero use for. Eventually, I gave up on wine and cleaned all traces of it from my HDD. YMMV, but I thought I'd throw my $.02 in. -- Bill Moran Potential Technologies http://www.potentialtech.com ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Anyone use WINE at all anywhere?
I used wine on 5.1-RELEASE in order to convert some binary cdrom format other than .iso (all those nice .ccd, .nrg, ...). I tried playing on my own copy of Starcraft but didn't successed yet however I didn't take much time to work on it. Except old games or mirc32 (for my gf), I'm not so much interested in wine but rather in vmware. If you have any patch to try, you're welcome.

Well I used to use wine to play Quake2 and load flash programs but ever since moving from Windows 98 to XP wine doesn't really seem to work at all. Not there is much reason left to use it as I don't use Windows XP much anymore. julian ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
