Subject: Win/DOS chess programs under Linux (was Rebel 10 compat with linux)

In case anyone is interested - Rebel 10 and Fritz 5 both will run under linux,
if you use vmware. Although, I have noticed that sometimes the mouse gets messed
up with Rebel. It's not too severe, and if you switch to some other X window,
and then back to vmware/rebel, the mouse works fine again.

So there are a few minor bugs, but it works. And, you actually get to see Rebel
run in a window - something that you don't see with win 9X.

Based on my experience with vmware, I think most win chess programs will
probably run under it.
