Hi Frank,
I'm also a Linux user and tried this out for you and have Legacy 8
standard version working fine on my pc. I'm running Linux Mint 17.1 and
I installed Legacy 8 into Play On Linux ( it's a front end for WINE that

Sincerely,
Sherry

constantly stumbling into problems that are caused by trying to workaround
Windows.
Trust me, you will waste (way too much) time over the years trying to run
it on another OS.
