[Discussion] os/2 on linux

Hi Jim,

VMWare has never supported OS/2. I think they even had an official non-supported statement at one time. OS/2 runs great on Virtual Box (Sun Microsystems) and Virtual PC (Microsoft).

Sincerely,

James Cannon

I started migrating to Linux (sad day indeed), and after experimenting with four different flavors, am setting up
two.  PcLinuxOS (easy KDE), and CentOS (KDE).

I had a copy of PrimaFAX (FaxWorks) that I have installed.  All works except... I have been unable to get it to
recognize the keyboard (a library translation issue).  So, has anybody had luck using vmware on linux to run
os/2 and apps? 


Later,
Jim
