[K12OSN] JRE in WINE

[Kemp, Levi]

I'm finding out what version it is but I know it was installed in 2004,
so it is fairly new. The installer won't work under 95/98, it has to be
an NT platform. WINE gives me an output of missing Java Runtime files,
so I'm assuming that is my issue. Your version may not have been created
using those. I'm considering installing the client on the same machine
as the SRI server, and just running the final executable from there.
Anyone have any thoughts on whether or not that will work?

I am using version 2.0 of Reading Counts. I believe we purchased it 
around 1999 and ran it on Windows 95 clients. I have never upgraded to 
anything more recent.

I installed it by simply running the installer (setup.exe) under WINE 
and tweaking the WINE configuration until everything worked as it
should.

I remember having to deal with font issues on older versions of WINE, 
but I've not had to do anything special on more recent versions. The 
only thing I do now is force WINE into an 800x600 window to make Reading

Counts display correctly.

Which version of Reading Counts are you having problems with?
