Whoo HOOOOOO!

[Lucas Peet]

Yeah, this is sweet...read about it in this month's LJ.

I downloaded the demo, installed it and it worked great...for about one clip.  After that, it 
completely dies, kills Opera (6.01 - exits with @broken pipe, and WON'T come backup), Netscape 
4.7x, or 6.2 doesn't recognize the plugins, nor Konqueror, etc... (note that they all recognize the 
plugins at the start, but after it dies...poof.)  After that, I can get it to come back up 
(sometimes) by un-installing, then re-installing...for each clip or two.

This *REALLY* is a very magical little app, and I wish to the gods that it was actually STABLE!!  
If it worked, I'd pay the $25, and be very, very happy.  I'm just really reluctant to shell out $25 
for a program that not even the demo works as advertised.

BTW, I've installed this both as a normal user (in ~/crossover) and as root (in 
/opt/crossover)...running RedHat 7.2, most everything's default from the install.  If you're 
running it stable, I'd like to know what your setup is (distro, kernel, etc...)
