Not quite. Until very recently I waited for reports from interested but
far more knowledgeable friends -- ones who *understood* linux (which I
barely manage to run, because I hate MS so much) -- and knew how to run
and even tweak wine. Then scuttlebutt reached me that Codeweavers' version
could do it; I tried; no joy. Cw wouldn't install for me under FC1, and
under RH9 (which I still had, but don't now) wouldn't install DeLorme nor
Garmin, let alone run them.

If there is reason to believe wine itself can do it -- which would amaze
me, but maybe my sources are less reliable than I suppose -- I'd be glad
to try myself, just in case. Do you recommend an rpm from winehq for FC1,
or is there anything else any more specialized toward this purpose?
