LOL you're waiting for my response. I was busy for the whole months. Many things happened and now dust settled. Actually, There are several Virtual Machines that allow run Windows and I DID installed Myst III: Exile and ran it. I got little pop up window said "debugger error, please removedebugger". I assumed that software detected that it's not a real machine. I google searched and found the issue. They said MOST Vitural Machines like Cedgna, WINE, VirtualBox, VMware do have issue with several games. They have not yet figure out how to "fool" the game into thinking its a real machine. I DID recalled installing and playing RIVEN game on XP inside VMware while running on top of Windows XP (my old laptop) and it works fine.
Actually, I don't care which OS I'm running. All I just want to run VirtualMachine to use Windows for certain apps which Linux can't or don't have. If I ever had chance to have a copy of Intel MAC OS then I'll install it and use it if any opportunity I get.
Personally, I DON'T know how to use WINE!! I'm just plain newbie with WINE (I'm good with installing and running Virtual Machines but this). I did run WINE files and browsed through. I am not sure how I should start with?? I DID checked WINE HQ website and said Myst III:Exile game runs on WINE just fine. Ummh!!!
Linux is getting better every month. I am seeing improvement like Synapic Package Manager, Add/Remove and several package installer/remover programs which made thing LOT easier to install or remove. Slax are modular. using **.mo file to add from download package. It's an excellent Linux for baby newbie who don't know how to use terminal commands.
I'm sure that game maker one day will allow user to install all games to Virtual Machines or Wine and play. So that they can make $$'s off from Linux users.
I've tested ran Hamilton Relay "InspireChat" on XP inside VirtualBox. It works like a charm!! I've installed Java2 before downloading and installing Inspirechat.
I hope I sastified your qq's If not then what can I do???
Catty
