I am going through the process of trying to get a Hauppauge PVR 250 card
to work. Part of the process is to download the latest drivers. This I did, downloading it to a windows partition. In the prcess of copying it to a more convenient location, I must have double-clicked on it. To my amazement it started to install. I allowed it to do so an it completed the process. I do not yet have Wine installed. How on earth did it work? Any ideas anyone? Alan |

Look in /etc/rc.d/init.d/ and see if wine is there as a daemon. fwiw Steve |

The exe still wouldn't execute, but Linux may have recognized it as a archive and started extracting it. |

Funny though, it didn't crash. It usually does ... under windows. <G> Alan |

I have no idea how it got there.It was on my todo list. I'm amazed at the way it just worked! Sorry for the red herring. Linux amazes me a little virtually every day. Alan |
