[bf1942] BF and wineX 3.1

[Manni Eppe]

Hi
I know, it is quite mad. First i want to do that because i want to do it. 
And second i hate it when a friend ICQs me and sais "Hey, lets go fraggin a 
bit" and i have to restart my PC everytime to start windoze.
So has anyone experiences with wineX an BF?
Greetz, Manni
