What version of WordPerfect? I had no luck with FreeBSD 2.1. I booted a -current kernel and got through the install without problems but I haven't been able to get the *#$&@*& license server to run and WordPerfect won't run without the license server. Various part of the package that can be run independently (eg the drawing program) seem to work fine. BTW, this is genuine licensed version, NOT the demo. -john == jfieber@indiana.edu =========================================== == http://fieber-john.campusview.indiana.edu/~jfieber ============
