I grabbed the 1.1.10 wine source this weekend and installed it along with VNC and I was happy to see it start up and run pretty damn well.<br>
<br>
<br>
So yeah Wine and vnc for the win.<br>

Guys,<br>
<br>
I can't for the life of me figure out why you're doing this so<br>
complicated. The use of a X system with a lightweight window manager<br>
such as fluxbox or Xfce draws negliglable system resources on any<br>
hardware worth the electricity it runs on. Save yourself a lot of<br>
hassle and just run the server in wine 1.8.x, I'm telling you it works<br>
just fine as a temporary solution until Linux binaries are released,<br>
even if we have to wait for cod6 next fall.<br>
