I *don't* advise moving to 2.6 yet, because performance in starcraft is pretty much unplayable with 2.6/nptl. 2.4 works well enough to keep up in a battle.net game. - O -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

Re: [gentoo-user] Playing Starcraft
You can try wine. Or you can use winex-cvs but if you do that give them feedback (see the web site) on any problems (and let them know if it works). There are some commerical alternatives such as VMWare. On Saturday 27 December 2003 12:45, you wrote: Hi, At this moment i jump to windows to play StarCraft.

That's right. I don't use it and forgot you need a copy of Windows to install in it. Scratch that one. On Saturday 27 December 2003 13:43, you wrote: Brett I. Holcomb said: You can try wine.

Re: [gentoo-user] Playing Starcraft
It has been a while, but I do remember installing, and playing Starcraft via wine. It wasn't that hard to get up and running. And, everything seamed to work ok.
