GKS: Graphical Kernel System

[kramerjm at gmail.com (James Kramer)]

The version of Wine on Debian Sarge (stable) seems to support versions up to
Win 98.  I never used Wine previously and looking at the config, it appears
that I may need to select each .dll file for the system to access.  All that
I have done previously was load all the necessary .dlls in the directory.
I'll play around with it and hope that I can get it to work.  Maybe I'll
install a newer version of wine that supports 2000.  Thanks for the advise.
