Hi David-
I am contemplating 8.1 right now, but have heard a lot of crap about it
being worse than 8.0 and more buggy, etc... What is your take on all of
this? Does this seem to be upgrade-related (from 8.0 to 8.1) or is this
8.1

The writing and the reality might not always jive, especially with Wine.
Since Wine is admittedly Alpha-quality software, they break things and fix
things all the time (What do you expect when attempting to implement such
a buggy OS API?). Since I use Wine for my every-day Lotus Notes stuff, I
I'd like to see it (although I'd probably be more likely to watch the

there is a no-cd hack for the game so you may be able to get it working.
Is Mechwarrior a bit of an acquired taste? I got an oem copy of
Mechwarrior 2 that came included with something a few years back... I
played maybe 5 minutes of so of the game
I wanted to keep playing diablo2 and counter-strike on the linux
workstation, if I could manage xfree86 and wine(x). When that happens, I
could run away from Window$ foreever.

Then throw away your windoze box(es), cause both work with wine. or at
least that's what some quick Googling indicates.

I can do xfree86+icewm myself,
but wine and 3d driver setup

I have been getting this craving for some Mech2 (heck, I'd probably even
buy the MSMech4-Mercs if it worked). Does anyone know how to make this
puppy work under Linux? Or do I have to use a Grub option not seen in
many months?
Any of the Mech series is appreciated. I've seen Mech4Mercs running
I did check Google first but haven't been able to find a whole lot of
recent information. I skimmed that listing but will read it closer to
glean what I can. It problem is still Mech2 thinking I'm using 16 colors
only...
Thanks,

Well, a quick check on www.transgaming.com shows mech warrior 2 doesn't work
well with winex. Winex is the version of wine that has directx8 and other
features that make games play easier. I haven't messed with it much, but
it's probably your best bet for windows games on linux.

It doesn't say that the game doesn't work, it just says that it trips some sort of cd
detection code. I just ran a quick google search and there is a no-cd hack for the
game so you may be able to get it working.

I hope an expert in wine/winex/xfree86 in this mailing list will write a
sxs article on directx/opengl games on linux. It's beyond me...
