Description Zhenzhi 2005-04-08 01:52:45 UTC
Win4Lin Pro
Comment 1 Zhenzhi 2005-04-08 01:52:45 UTC
Win4Lin Pro is the flagship product of the Win4Lin product family. Using Win4Lins high performance virtual computing environment (VCE), Win4Lin Pro runs virtually any Windows 2000 or Windows XP application as intended, without the need to patch the host operating system (e.g. no need to patch the Linux kernel). This next generation product is the perfect solution for the technical workstation, home, or enterprise Linux user. Organizations wishing to migrate to Linux need wait no longer because they can now run those Windows legacy business applications that until now have prevented them from moving forward.

Have you looked into this yet with Netraverse?

Ebuild is incorrect, It has to support modular X as well as monolithic.

updated for latest testing builds, modular X supported proprly

This should do you all real well now, I have done extensive testing with it and have had no other problems to resolve.

6.3.0-05 ebuild

Much improvement for the x86_64 arch. There is a small typo in the init script view it before you use it and you will see what I am talking about ( MERGENAME not MEREGENAME )
Comment 11 José Alberto Suárez López (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-10-15 07:48:17 UTC
thanks for you work :)

so after all this time trying to contact with netraverse to update our serial numbers for testing i dont have any reply. Netraverse dont support this ebuild more. If you want you can use the w4l installer is not so bad :)

so the remove will be cancelled if you have a good point to mantain the ebuild in gentoo.

w4l is now hardmasked and i will remove it in 30 days.

regards

29 day(s) left in evaluation period.

You may use Win4Lin Pro without entering a license code
until the evaluation period ends.  If you already have 
a full license code, you may enter it now.
If you do not have a license code, you may enter it at
any time in the future by running (as root):
        /opt/win4linpro/bin/ask_license.sh

This should be reopned and assigned to maintainer wanted :) I will provide the latest ebuild in just a bit.
