1 Hi,
2 I'm wondering what anyone thinks my chances are of emerging the
3 latest Wine (0.9.53) and having it work well enough for Netflix to
4 play movies inside of Internet Explorer on an AMD64 machine? Is that
5 just wishful thinking?
6
7 How can I unmask 0.9.53? It's showing up in eix as orange. Something
8 in the keyword file I'm not grasping? I've got ~amd64 ~*
9
10 man eix suggests this:
11
12 ~3.3.5.20050130
13 The version would be "masked by ~keyword".
14
15 Isn't that what I have above?

30 If this is known not to work I won't bother but I've seem some
31 forum posts about many games now working better with straight Wine
32 than Cedega so I thought I might give movies a try since Netflix has
33 gone to unlimited online watching as of this week and I don't want to
34 boot into Windows just do that.
35
36 Thanks all,
37 Mark
