          Keywords: download
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2

1. Order the trial version of Oregon Trail
from Broderbund's site.  (You can get it
from other sites as well, but they use a strange
ActiveX app to do the real download, which
doesn't work well in wine.)  After registering
they let you download it.  Better have a fast
connection, it's big!

2. Run the 550MB (566411841 byte) Oregon Trail installer.
Click 'ok' to first screen.  It will
complain that you don't have DirectX 8.
Not sure how it detects what version of
DirectX we have, but whatever it's doing we
seem to be handling wrong.
