Has anyone gotten IPX network support to work in starcraft with wine? I can play single user fine, but when I try ipx it says it can not initialize the ipx subsystem or something silly. IPX support is compiled into my kernel (2.4.9), do I have to do something else to set it up? A userspace ipx daemon or something?

Ok, well I found this: http://koti.mbnet.fi/~hoppq/sc-howto.html Which looks pretty helpful. I think I'll give it a whirl, or something.

Ok, so I did "/sbin/ipx_interface add -p eth0 802.2" and then did "/sbin/ipx_interface check eth0 802.2" and it gives me "IPX Address for (802.2, 802.2) is DCFDDD9E:0020780389C2."

Then I start Starcraft and go to IPX network play and it gives me "Unable to initialize network provider," which is the same error I got before.

Any ideas?
