I've been running 4.0b7 on Kubuntu 11.04 for a few weeks and it works great. I've seen a few Flash related issues on a few sites (nothing show stopping), but other than that it works fine.

Every day, I update my local git source repository and compile/install the latest Wine, to check out the new changes and keep an eye out for regressions. Imagine my surprise yesterday when I saw they bumped the version number, up to Wine 1.2-rc1. The official release statement is at: http://www.winehq...

And it's even available to disloyal Linux users and the general public! >> The new version is10.04 LTS, which is arriving right around a year after 9.10 "KarmicKoala" launched. 6 months after. The .## designations after the version number denote the month of release. It's always...

I can believe the full versions might cost more: It sounds like a calculated plan to get extra money from businesses that skipped Vista, and to gouge OEMs for more per PC. But, I expect upgrade versions to remain the same cost. They might even be cheaper. There simply won't be any "killer apps"...

I had a fun day... well, fun for a geek. I re-installed Kubuntu (using the latest daily CD's, here ) so that I could repartition my drives. Here are the highlights, while still fresh on my mind: Switched from using SoftRAID to using DMRAID. I specifically used the alternate installer CD because I...

>> am getting the general feeling that a lot of programs aren't supported for the Linux OS as they are for MS OS's, true or false? The first thing to understand is that you're likely talking about Windows Applications. Linux and Windows are entirely different operating systems, with...
