I think many people will be happy to hear this

Actually I found this thread on linuxquestions.org :

The only problem is that I don't have FC2 at the moment nor do I know which version of wine shipped with it. It will take me a couple of days to get FC2. If some one who has both the game and the OS can check it I would love to hear. Otherwise I'll post my results in a few days.

Does that mean it only works on that version of wine then, in that case get that version of wine instead of the whole distro

[warrion_2000]

Well yes that should do it. This is the original thread: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...58#post1790658

I checked whether there was any version of wine shipped with FC2 but I found nothing. So now I'll wait a bit and see how this thing goes, then I'll install it.

Btw, are you an AoE fan?

in case you havnt heard, the 3erd aoe is coming out this winter...

[warrion_2000]

Yes it is. I don't like the screenshots I've seen though. I loved the graphics of AoE2, the perfect graphics IMO, and I can't understand why every game has to have 3D graphics nowadays.

As for my original post, I found out that FC2 did not ship with wine, but I know that the version of wine needed to play AoE2 is a 2004 version. I posted that on linuxquestions and now I'm waiting for a reply.

My colleague was running Half Life under linux with winex, with display exported to other host where X server was running on windows, and the other colleague actually played it on that windows machine. This is cool!
