Since you're using Fedora, I guess you'd be the best one to ask. I've searched the Redhat FTP site and the YUM repository, but I can't find WINE anywhere. Any helpful info on what you did to get it installed and running? Thanks! - Scott

The latest version is wine-0.9.43-2.fc7, and I got it from the yum fedora updates repository. -- Chuck

RHEL is actually a somewhat expensive version of Linux and I'd hate to think they actually support Fedora better than RHEL :) This might be my ignorance showing, but I'm at a loss on this one. - Scott

I might have an answer to my question - in linux.redhat.install someone said WINE had to many security issues to be permitted in an enterprise version of Linux. Add the fact that my processor doesn't support "vmx" and I'm starting to get a little chaffed :) - Scott

I second that comment. Although, there are so things about it that drive me nuts at times. Some of this is due to my dislike for Gnome ( seems not very responsive, not as flexible as I am accustomed to, and some "artifacts" ) while the rest was due to a need to explore and learn how to make it do what I want. > The thing that really sets Ubuntu apart is the software repository.

This basically only covers typical popular "general user" applications, though. I still rely heavily on the standard "tar... vi README... vi INSTALL... ./config... vi Makefile... make... install" ritual for the non-mainstream fun that I get into. > Firefox destroyed the first big stumbling block, but distributions > like Ubuntu are the only serious hope for FSF/OSS to have any > considerable share of the desktop market.
