Ok, I tried that and it generates errors about the architecture and
various other errors.  Also when you manually patch a vanilla kernel
you have to edit the config file and set the mki option to yes to
enable the win4lin stuff.  That is why I was looking for a howto or
similar information.

I have tried to use (that is my wife has tried to use IE under wine,
she needs IE for her online classes) but it never works correctly with
the website.  I have also asked the school if they could develop their
website to w3c standards only, but I have had no luck in that area. 
Their website is full of bs, err! I meant ms proprietary stuff.  But
thanks for the suggestion.
