I'm interested in this, could you document your 'fiddling', or make
the .conf files available?



Open this link and then select/copy the whole page contents.
Paste it into a word processor and then save it as a text file.

After it's saved, right click on the icon, get 'properties' and make it
an 'executable' file by checking off the little box in the properties
listing.

Open a terminal, go to the directory you've saved the file in and type
in the name of this now executable file. Do this as a normal user, NOT
sudo or su or root.

Don't forget to put a ./ in front of the name.

A whole bunch of Microsoft stuff will now be downloaded into your .wine
folder. There have to be some responses during the download, so you
can't leave the room in shame.

It isn't something I'm proud of and it's certainly something I would
never tell the children.
