Hi Uwe

I installed it several weeks back, and nothing now sticks in my mind as
being exciting. I followed the instructions online for 5.2, but used 
the 5.1 ISE cdrom I had to hand.

Lets see - This is currently a rh9.0 system, 
((which I don't much like - Mozilla and other things hang under X/Xinerama.
 maybe I'll downgrade it to rh8 or maybe something else.))
rh7.x was much more stable, rh8 was better, except for usb.
wine I compiled from source.    wine --version => Wine 20030408

I just ran the xilinx setup after editing wine.conf - done manually.
this took several passes to get wine.conf correct.
(I can post that if its of use)
This box will dual boot win2k, and there was a valid webpack install
available. In fact - I know I installed to a new place (on a separate
samba/nfs server) but when I ran the code - I have a suspicion I ended up
running the win2k-installed stuff , as I suspect it read the windows 
environment variables. 

I program from this box (impact/win2k/parallelcable IV)  and thats 
been fairly error free on ~60 xc9572 devices now.
1 or 2 crashes - restart navigator -  one device failed - that one 
got heatsoaked unprogrammed, wich perhaps upset it.
