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 :D
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.
