I''m not very clued up on Linux, but I hear that Wine has hardware support for DirectX up to DX 5. Can anyone clarify this, as I''m way out of my depth here.

It''s called WineX and, like Wine itself, is not guaranteed to work with all applications. WineX is even less mature than Wine, and consequently more prone to failure.

For more information on Wine and its associated projects, check out WineHQ.

Just a question... why ???

If you''re developping for linux, you already have the tools natively available (g++, KDevelop...).

If you''re developping for windows, you''re much better off running windows, if only when you want to test your programs.

even when you get it working, it''ll compile win32applications.
and to run them you need windows or an emulator..
stick with windows if you want vc..

If that's not the help you're after then you're going to have to explain the problem better than what you have. - joanusdmentia
