30 Oct '09

Hi, I have started using The Reliance LG LXU800 modem for their NetConnect service. I have used it under MS Windows as of now. They provide Linux driver for kernel 2.6.27-7-generic specifically on the CD which came with the modem. It did not load with the linux kernel 2.6.30.8-64.fc11 which I have on my laptop. Search on the Internet only advised me to change to that particular kernel. Can anyone provide links or information on how to make this work under the present kernel and later … [View More]

@steve well, thanks for reminding but I know it is based on Wine. But for playing games in linux using Wine with default drivers, you have to do hell lot of tweaking and config settings.PlayOnLinux does all that for you. So no bubbles are there to prick :) thanks Pratik Anand

Now here is a better way of playing games of Windows flawlessly on Linux. http://www.playonlinux.com/en/ Just stumbled upon it. It contains patches specific to game titles to make them executable in linux … [View More]
