    Has anyone gotten darklands 0.19 working in linux? I have what I believe to
    be two problems:
    1 - It's looking for a specific socket to talk to, like /dev/ttyS1 or something. Using mystic, how do I tell it what to talk to?
    2 - It appends '\' to dropfile path. So, I tell it to look in /mystic/temp1/, and it looks for the file /mystic/temp1/\door.sys and (naturally) doesn't
    find it. Any suggestions here?

    It _is_ possible to get the source, but I haven't had much luck compiling it into anything that works any better.

    worst case scenario, hex edit the file, find that \ character and convert it
    to / or if it has space in the field to ./ This is a long shot. If you dont know what you are doing dont try it and make backups... always. :)

    Wait for a better solution. ;)
