Hoyle Card Games

What works

Every game, face creator, some music

What does not

Installing. I also tried pre-installing .net framework 2.0, but the installer gives an error message on start-up. The 'strategy' help function does not work. Some music does not work. Finally, the game crashed to desktop once without any error message (after several hours of playing) but has never crashed since, so this was probably something incidental. The fact that the game does not install has a workaround. One can either use a pc with any of the latest windows versions on it to install, then copy the entire game folder to linux, or one can use a virtual machine and copy the folder from there.

Additional Comments

Help function in games does NOT work if riched20.dll is set to native (as a note to office 2003 users, me being one of them). Setting it to native, builtin or not setting it at all works though.
