Running Windows Apps in FreeBSD
LiquidPC writes "ONLamp.com has a detailed new
article on setting up and using Windows Applications in WINE, one of the many FreeBSD ports you could have alot of fun with. It also
suggests going to WineHQ to
find out which programs will work in wine, and which ones will not, so you dont have to waste all your time testing."
Just out of curiosity, how many times have you posted this now? Are you the originator, or has the torch been handed down to you? Why don't you update it with the "Developers have fallen off by a ratio of 15 to 1" meme?
Yes, I agree. The SMPng developer fallout should be amended to the "*BSD is dying" post. Also, maybe some other one-year-delay thing.
It really must be dead if the first five posts to this story only talk about this troll.
Congradulations, you are a moron.
Congradulations, you too are a moron.
What can they do. The lameness filter only gets lamer.
Congradulations? Looks like I'm not the only moron
Does anyone know if Dru is married? There is something special about a FreeBSD babe. :4P
well, at least you can't type a comment and post it in under 20 seconds. thank god for the crapfilter.
Actually, it's "congratulations." You moron.
I agree to that! the less crap I have to read the better life is. :)
No it isn't.
Let's see, bsd is "thriving" because there is the possibility that it might move up into sixth place sometime next year. Let's see, that should give bsd about 0.5% of the embedded os market share. Another way to look at it is that 99.5% of the embedded market doesn't use bsd. Hahahah.
Its odd how strikening the similarity between SOME rotten parts of the linux community and Microsoft really is.
/. if /. does not preserve freedom for all, but Linux. Where are the philosophy?
These fanatics doesn't know about the concept of simplicity and using the right tool for the right job and preserving freedom for all and everything.
They celebrate others hard times and fight other projects with marketing bias.
Do they want Linux for all and everything? Do they want to control others? Are they to decide what is good for others?
Where is their spirit of freedom?
Freedom doesn't come with a license to enslave you. Freedom exists in our hearts and in our minds. Freedom exist and is worth preserving.
If SOME Linux fanatics fight everything but Linux, as it appears, they are no better than Microsoft.
Ever heard about 'The right tool for the right job'?
We are all the same while at the same time nothing is the same, and the concept of freedom lies within.
I am a developer.
I approve of all systems and their right to exist.
I mess with linux, bsd, beos, windows - its all the same.
The bias from SOME people who CALL themselves part of the Linux community despite of not understanding what Linux is a part of, are sad.
Set yourself free, remove you chains.
The more dominant one group becomes and enslaves others, the more the others will gain in energy to evolve.
Who from the BSD community want to be a part of
Is freedom only reality when you break free until you grow and become biased and end up with freedom as an illusion.
REMEMBER YOUR ROOTS ???
smile to your next of kin.
s/he needs it as much as you do.
you are both the same.
In what ways are linux and bsd (or any other unix variant) different? They seem all the same to me: unix.
