Go up one level in this thread
Good Afternoon,
I've tested this on 2 machines, both 32 bit Celeron 700mhz and 1ghz
machines, yes I need to upgrade ;) Running Debian Linux 3.1Ra, with
linux-2.6.11.6 kernel.
The version of wine I use is "Wine 20050310" which is the stable version within
the latest Debian. I just did "apt-get install wine".
I'm using "fake-windows" and not an installed windows partition, so windows
really isn't needed at all.
Both machines have 512megs SDRAM.
If you wanted to play the engines from the shell you can run "wineconsole
engine.exe" to play. Though if you chmod +x it you can just ./engine.exe to run.
By chance know where to get the open sourced version of Zappa? If not I'll
search the archives back a week or so, remember seeing a link.
Take care,
Josh
