I have an old computer which i have ubuntu on but i want to be able to play a few games on lan, the pc isn't used much so its not worth buying a new copy of xp anymore as i have bought a few already over the years, i remember reading here or elsewhere years ago that someone was able to get an extra XP key from support when they explained a similar situation as this, basically they wanted it for an old pc for their kids if i remember correctly, so do you think they will?
If not is there anything else i can try to either legally get xp working or just the games on ubuntu, wine really doesn't work as well as i was led to believe, especially when it comes to lan games, i either have issues with RA2 on ipx or issues with directplay on games that use that, its such a shame because i do like ubuntu for everything else.
