Why why why why.... Just burn some frogskins and get VMWare, run it as a virtual machine on your Linux box and run CPRS in its native environment, that's what I do on my laptop.
I gave up on Wine in 1998, although I did purchase CrossOver Office by CodeWeavers, codeweavers.com. You may want to see if it will run inside their version of Wine. Personally I hope CPRS gives way to other more flexible cross platform and web based clients, written in python, java, etc. On Monday 28 March 2005 02:57, Doctor Bones wrote: > I realize that everyone pretty much has written off CPRS and wine with > linux. > Well, I decided to give a try for grins and giggles.... > And guess what! > It doesn't work. > > But...
