Hi all.
I installed Wine (windows emulator for linux) and tried to get SPWAW up and running. The whole installation process took about 15min and now SPWAW runs just fine

Everything works fine except small mouse flickering. I didn't install SPWAW in linux, only copied installed version from my windows partition. I'll try to install SPWAW under linux when I got more time.
I'm using Fedora Core 2 final.
Here is one screenshot to proof my words (PNG image):

The graphics look a lot better when you can run it in a window at 1024x768

I wish you could do that on Windows

I installed wine form wine-20040505-1fc1winehq.athlon.rpm package. Settings are almost default, display mode set to "Desktop" = "1024x768" with winesetuptk utility.
Occasional crash happens sometimes when playing SPWAW. [:(] I don't know yet what causes that.
