Tom,

	This may be more for a Wine list but I was wondering if your
Scholastic apps that do work on the terminals, SRI and SRC, work as well
as they do on a windows workstation. I was getting ready to make the
changes suggested earlier about the cache for the virtual memory to see
if it made a difference in those. By the way I have SRI and SRC under
/usr/share/ not in each individual .wine folder. I may try that to see
if there is a performance increase. Just wanted to get some input from
someone else using the same setup though.

Tom,

 To verify that your Mplayer is playing different versions of Quicktime
files go here and test to make sure your player has codecs for all the
QT
file formats:

If these all work and your program launches ok from the console but not
on
terminals I would guess you need to create a seperate launcher on the
desktop to start the program for EACH user at the desktop not from the
Wine Start menu,The symlinks must be not cooperating.
Scratch head a little more?
Rethink,,

Take Care,

Barry Cisna
