Pity - SimplyMEPIS Drops Win4Lin 9x Support

Win4Lin Pro runs like a dead dog and it isn't much better with kqemu installed. I have a fast processor and heaps of swap space as well as 1G of RAM but I'd rather use Win4Lin original if I need to use a windows program. I now have a copy of the Australian Tax software which runs under Linux so that leaves one program (Oziexplorer, a map reading program) to get going under wine this time.
I'll look on the win4lin site for a patched Debian kernel for the future use of Win4Lin.

Liz,

Which version of E-Record are you currently running? I have tried a few and they all had glitches under Wine and Crossover..

RossD.

i got a pilot release by snail mail from someone on the gnucash list
but I have got it here.
http://www.billiau.net/coffee_break/files/incidentals/ECIClient-Linux-CD-20050426.zip
i have heard back from ATO that was this only intended as a pilot, and at the end they will decide whether to go ahead
"The Linux version of ECI was only made available as a pilot to a limited
number of users. That pilot has now finished and an evaluation will be
completed in due course. Once the evaluation is complete the ATO will
determine if or when a Linux version of ECI will be made available to
the general public."
that came from
"TRPESD"
and the more people email them the more likely we are to get the full release, and updates!
