I just downloaded Codeweavers Crossover Office 2.1 and installed it on FC Test3. It seemed to work fine at first, but after a couple of days (and many updates from rawhide) it now produces an error when I try to run a windows app. IE 6 will not run after the error, but other apps do. "Your system appears to contain a security patch that will cause trouble when running some programs in CrossOver. To fix the problem, please consult the online FAQ at ...." When I consult the FAQ, it says: ============================== 6.1.2.1.6. Will CrossOver work with my security patches? (grsec, libsafe, etc.) Sometimes. Many security patches disallow loading executables at certain locations in the memory map. Some Windows executables are stripped of their relocation records, thus must be loaded at a specific address in the memory map. For this reason, you may experience trouble running certain programs in CrossOver with security patches enabled. If you are using grsec, please contact us as we may be able to help you. If you are using the "not executable stack patch" for Linux, you may disable it for CrossOver by running the following command: $ /usr/sbin/chstk -e ~/cxoffice/bin/wineloader ============================== I do not have a program called /usr/sbin/chstk, and suspect this is not the solution anyway. Has anyone else experienced this or had success with CrossOver Office 2.1 on Fedora? Thanks. Gerry
