It's easy :) Install wine and winesetupkt. Then get sol.exe [NOTE: this is copyrighted by MS so you need to own one copy of Windows just to use run this!!] Then, just type: wine sol.exe it should start config script [first time run]. Just select fake windows install and Win95 or something for look and feel... Finish, Next time you run wine sol.exe you'll get solitare. :) - Adam PS. it is easier to use older, Win95 or 98 version of sol.exe as it doesn't depend on some stupid cards.dll and stuff..
