Default Re: Poker on a linux computer - some tips.

I'm very interested in running Party Poker in crossover office. I have Novell Linux Desktop (SuSE) and crossover office already. What are the modifications you are talking about?

IMO you should forget it. I tried ub, party and stars. IIRC stars was the only site that would work (party and/or ub would never run, always complaining about some html file).

I fiddled with it for quite awhile and realized:

1) this is a very fragile setup when it comes to something like potentially losing online money from emulation glitches;

2) any change or new software from a site would likely put me back in troubleshoot-mode with no guarantees of getting it working again;

3) would require getting pt/gt+ working under xover as well.

Been using vmware ever since and IMO it's the hands-down only way to do this. (And setting up linux pgsql to serve pt like the other poster mentions should be pretty cool if I can get it working).
