Re: [seul-edu] wine testing efforts



Geometer's Sketchpad actually does very well under wine. I'd have to
check what version we have if someone is really interested.

I've also been successful with GradeMachine. I was even able to install
and run ClarisWorks 5.0. I did all this just a few days ago.  I've not
been following this thread so let me know if you have more questions on
any of these. The one problem I'm seeing is correct use of fonts with
our current default k12ltsp install.

If someone figures that one out before I do, let me know and I'll make
sure it gets into the next realease.
