From some Cedega release notes:
64-bit Linux distributions
Since Cedega is intended to run standard 32-bit Windows games, it is by
nature a 32-bit application. When running Cedega on a 64-bit Linux system,
an appropriate 32-bit
That seems like a very interesting idea with VMWare. Another option to
consider is CDEMU, which supports mounting Alcohol images (which are able to
contain tricks to make them act like copyrighted discs). The problem for *
that* would be in getting Cedega to recognize CDEMU as a CD-ROM drive. The
Awesome to hear. I'd like to pick his brain on how he has some of the
games configured...as far as the cons: Wine can be fooled into
mounting ISOs as CDROM drives by first mounting them as loop devices
under fstab and then adding them using winecfg.

people ran Linux (Ubuntu 7.10) for the reason that he couldn't install
Windows on his computer. He said that his Windows XP license is an upgrade
from a Windows
Hmm. It would be a total hack...but if they allow mounting of the
drives via the network, you could run VMWare with windoze...mount the
ISO via DaemonTools and share it out?
I don't have games with these requirements any longer. Actually, the
newest game I play is UrbanTerror 4.1, which is based
I have to fight with Windows to get Civ IV Bio-Shock to play at the highest
quality level. I could not imagine tying to get it working under WINE. But
then again, I am thinking of moving to console gaming as soon as I can afford
it :) But it is really good to see that Windows is not a lan

I went all Linux for a while and found it did not work for me. I do LAMP
development and my favorite editor does not run under Linux and running IE for
testing under wine was not optimum either.
So I have a Linux dev server and a Win XP desktop. For me this is the best
