Linux distribution (32 bit, or 64 bit with 32 bit compatibility library installed)
Tested on
- Ubuntu 6.06/7.04(1)
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation 4 and 5 (2)
- openSUSE 10.2
- SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 10
- Fedora Core 6 and 7 (3)
If a distribution is listed here, that means two things:
our regression suite had to pass on that distribution before
we would ship, and that we are ready and able to support customers
that use that distribution. Note that prior to running our
regression test, each test system was updated to its
most current patch set as of September 1, 2007. We test on both
32 bit and 64 bit systems running each distribution, and, where possible,
we test both KDE and Gnome.
(1) Ubuntu 7.04 has a font that can cause problems
in CrossOver. See this FAQ for more information.
(2) Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 uses a form of SELinux
that does not allow CrossOver to function properly by default. Their default tool will
allow you to customize permissions to allow it to work, however.
(3) Fedora Core has a range of experimental technologies that
often break Wine, and therefore CrossOver. You will likely have
to change your system in order to get CrossOver to work,
particularly on 64 bit systems.
You should be able to run this on a variety of other
distributions, particularly older versions of the distributions
listed here. However, our ability to test and support
older or other configurations is somewhat limited.
Gentoo users in particular should note that
we do not install or test on Gentoo, nor do we have any plans to
do so, so you should use CrossOver at your own risk. We have
many customers happily using Gentoo, but we also have a high
number of users with problems on Gentoo.
