Hello - I'm new to PlayOnLinux.
Been using Linux since 2004.
M$ since 1985.
DR's CP/M before that.
Punched a lot of cards back to 1970.
No luck with Wine.
Currently using Mint 13 xfce.
Ran Ubuntu from Breezy to Lucid.
PlayOnLinux:
First I successfully installed IE7.
I don't need IE, but the install was on YouTube,
so I thought I would give it a try.
EZPE
More importantly - It seems I've successfully installed Legacy Family Tree (LFT) v.5.
http://www.legacyfamilytree.com/ see older versions. Free.
It took me a couple trys, but I did it.
I found that LFT shows up in //.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/xxx/drive_c/.
So, I pasted my LFT backup zip file in //drive_c/Legacy/Data.
Reinstalled LFT again (from the beginning) using PoL.
Restored LFT db from backup zip file.
I was able to move around LFT and see my ancestors.
I didn't edit/add/delete anyone, but it looks like I can.
Also I was able to make a fresh backup zip file at closing.
The zip file showed up in Wineprefix/xxx/drive_c/Legacy/Data.
Made a 2nd backup to my thumb drive.
Everything looks good.
Wonderful.
Many thanks to all who made this product available.
