Hello fellow NMGLUGers! The second meeting for ABQLUG is coming up in less than a week! It's going to be at Ideas and Coffee (it's a co-working space, not really a coffee shop). This will be on July 2nd 2019 at 6:00pm. For more direct information, please visit the attendee page. https://www.abqlug.com/attendee/ The main topic will be on how to use Wine and CrossOver for Linux. All the way from the basics to how to handle a more complicated application. For a direct example I will be presenting how to install Ancestral Quest 15 and Quicken (Quicken was easier to install through CrossOver). Although I will admit that Quicken isn't fully functional. This is due to the fact that I don't own any Quicken software and I am missing a certain patch file that should fix this. The patch file should be accessible with a valid intuit login. If anyone else would like for me to take a look at seeing if Wine can be used with any Windows software, just email me directly and I will give it a shot and see if I can include it in the next meetup. Now, I am not claiming to be an expert with Wine. If you are an expert with Wine, you might not get too much out of this. However, I am willing to bet that everyone would at least learn something new about Wine. PS: If you're planning on attending I would like to coordinate (via email) with anyone that would like to bring a bottle of _actual_ wine. I am not advocating excessive drinking by any means. I just think it would be a fun idea to have some wine when discussing Wine. I highly expect no one to respond to this. And if my suspicion is correct I'll bring some Cranberry juice as a substitute. (Since I'm too broke to drop money on wine.) Again, don't just assume you should bring some without at least telling me first. PSS: David, if you are reading this... I tried to email you directly. However it resulted in bounce messages saying your account doesn't exist. I would like to coordinate with you to see if I can get the patch file I need to make Quciken 2016 work. So please email me directly so I hopefully show off a working Quicken 2016 setup. I hope to see you all there!
