Newly Released WineX 2.2 Supports EverQuest
Mattzilla writes "The latest release of
Transgaming's WineX (details available here) now supports EverQuest. You asked for it, here it is. This release also has Direct 3D and Direct Show updates as well as fixes for Mandrake 9.0 and RedHat 8.0 CD device auto-detection. With EverQuest now under Linux I'm sure a great deal of people won't find a need to be dual-booting any longer." The EverQuest support is called "preliminary"; check out those release notes for a few known problems and workarounds.
Now we will see penguins commiting suicide.
Nero-burning ROM for Linux!
Why would you need Norton Utilities to run under emulation on Linux? None of the utilities are going to help you fix anything on a Linux box.
All Linux users will now be sucked into the downward spiral of Evercrack addiction.
If you don't understand any of my sayings, come to me in private and I shall take you in my German mouth.
It's WINE, not WHINE.

did he drop out of highschool before or after he flunked out of college?
He dropped out of high school, mostly because he would skip school so damn much he couldn't keep grades up.
Later he got a GED (like that is hard at all).
He passed basic tests to get into a community college.
(all this while he continued to play EverQuest)
Now, he eventually got so pulled into the game and some guild that he flunked right out of college.
When his parents found out about the 0 GPA crap, they kicked him out because they weren't going to support him if he couldn't keep his act together.
Now, the last I've heard... he lives in an apartment hardly getting by with the job he has. He still plays EQ....
The game can and will ruin your life. Avoid it. The game is a drain on your soul. It's no more than a mental leech designed by Sony.
I could go into the abnormal social behavior the game causes too... but thats too much to write.
btw, the guild this poor sap plays in EQ is found here. http://www.thehouseofrequiem.com . He used to brag about being such an awesome web designer... *sighs*
He's a pathetic soul now... wasted energy.
Given that:
a) most Everquest addicts only eat/sleep/shower after a Windows BSOD ends their 15 hour EQ session;
b) Linux can run for months or even years without a reboot;
I conclude that this is a bad idea.
