[cw-discuss] IE's for Linux

[Zeno Davatz]

Hi Jeremy

Thank you for your Mail.

1. I am running Gentoo on a newer 2.6 Kernel. Yes this indeed quite
strange. Are there any other solutions to Wine and QT7?

2. Do you know of this project.
http://www.tatanka.com.br/ies4linux/page/Installation:Gentoo - It
installed flawlessly on my Gentoo. Just still no Quicktime.

Best
Zeno
