Forums General Discussion Running MIRC in Linux?

Has anyone else ran mIRC using WINE under Linux? I'm getting the error:

This looks like a WINE problem. You should probably seek help from WINE's support channels.

uxtheme.dll is the windows xp theme library. It may be trying to use the glorified button and colorful titlebars. It may also be that you have the transparancy on mirc set, and windows handling of transparency is much different than linux.

Both are just guesses, but none the less something you can play around with. >:D

I've ran mIRC just fine under wine...it was a long time ago though...on linux mandrake 7.0 or 7.2 I can't remember...
