Pretty much this is what I did:
Downloaded the newst version of SL
used regular wine in to install it.
Downloaded an old version of winex here: http://www.tales.pop.com.br/Linux/winex.htm
and basicly ran SL with that WineX binary. Works Perfectly!

Just curious From what I've experianced hanging out with W-HAT Corp (infamous for tons of well, stuff) it seems pretty much the same under Windows. I'll have to go clubbing tonight and see for sure. With all the features enabled and at a high res, there's weird sort of freezing that will occaisionally, but for the most part it works alright. I'm happy that's for sure.  |

I think it's pirated, and it requires root privileges to setup... |
