well, not help yet, but guidance. i am wanting to move off of winXP at the house and move to linux on all systems but my gaming box.

i know how to keep XP safe, but dont always have time to repair what my duaghter and wife do to her computer. my duaghter uses the system to browse the web, and do some playing around in 'word' and plays a handful of the 'JumpStart 2nd grade/3rd grade' type games.

i know the first 2 things she uses it for will not be a big deal, and she can learn fast enough to get used to the diffreance between XP and linux in gnome for her.

i want to know if anyone here has had any luck with wine and the jumpstart line of games working in linux?

if so please let me know what you had to do, what complications you delt with, etc.

thank you.

also would not mind sujestions for getting a start on it.

wow im disapointed. no one here has kids who play on the computer?
