I agreed to try installing the Ecco Extension in one or more of the
various distributions of GNU/Linux that I use (based on Debian, Fedora,
Arch and Gentoo) with EccoPro under Wine. However, I had to attend other
commitments. Also, the problems encountered by Ecco users running Ecco
under M$ Windoze are absent, since a commitment has been made by the
developers of the Linux Kernel to maintain compatibility with older
(i.e. 16 bit) applications and this is certainly NOT the case with
Micro$oft, whose objectives have always been focused on economic gain
for M$ first and foremost. Therefore, extracting (or extorting)
additional resources from M$ system users due to planned obsolescence
is consistent with their modus operendi, and that is part of the reasons
I prefer GNU/Linux systems: Both their motives and their products are
superior. (BTW: Since a number of the members of this list are
affiliated with religious organizations, perhaps I should mention that
GNU/Linux distributions have been developed expressed for their use. (I
would have to look into it but can do that, upon request).
I use Katmouse for scrolling in Ecco. So why do I need EccoExt?
Whatever: I downloaded EccoExt4.6.7.7, extracted it and chose install
EccoExt next to Ecco, which was already open, when Wine asked me to make
that choice.
Now what? What should I look for?
I disabled Katmouse and Ecco still scrolls. What else should I try?
