Dear FF team

Occasionally I try to install FF in the latest build of wine, with the hope it will run.

Got to thinking would you all even be interested in?
1. the bug reports
2. the wine build I used
3. the wine conf so you could see the overides I used

As it stands with 1.37 build
error
<class XFW::OSCallError> ::GetScrollInfo failed

I figured you would have your hands full right now if not allways just thought I would offer
Thanks for the reply
and I allready use vmware

If I ever do succeed in figuring out a method that works I will let you all know

The first time I read it I thought that it was a joke and that voldemort wanted to get FF drunk using wine (the one that comes in a bottle)

After the answer of GMM I knew it must be some kind of emulator and is true you can see it here www.winehq.org

While on the subject, I was wondering if FF could run on a vmware virtual machine.
I have a friend that works at a server farm, and all the computers run vmware virtual machines so each client sees his own system.
Would it be possible for him to use FF under a vmware virtual machine running Windows?

Yes FF will run in a virtual machine
vmware
parallels
virtual box
etc
The virtualized operating system will not know the difference --there will be a performance degradation though

as far as wine goes I never did follow up to this

It is possible to actually get FF to work with wine but you would have to violate microsoft licensing by copying native dll's from windows --runs very well on linux port of wine for some reason exact same build of wine ff blows up on a mac

You can get FF to work with wine without copying those dll's but it will quickly create a memory leak in my experiences

Since I do keep 1 windows box around in my house for reference purposes I simply rdp to that box using Cendio's seamless rdp so that Im exporting only the app not a full desktop
