Excellent, JenX!

Installing V4 and M4 were a bit of a "trial and error" mayhem for me. Obj import has been problematic for me, but other than that my P7 doesn't crash - at all - when run with Wine. Poser did lose it's marbles when I tried to use the Wine options for smooth Gnome desktop interaction with window decorations and all. I tried to use P7 spreading the several palettes and other windows to several Gnome-managed virtual desktops, but that was a bit too much for the old buddy and since then I've been content on using P7 in a single emulated and dedicated virtual desktop among other virtual desktops. It feels a bit like Windows-use being restricted to a single screen, but luckily I'm running a 24" 1920x1280 monster so everything fits nice enough in there.
