Using Notes through the web is a pain. From what I've seen, it uses a lot of Java applets that don't always work all that well. I've been able to get the Lotus Notes client to install and run via WINE 20011226 (currently in Debian testing), and that'd be my recommendation to anyone.. It's even flakier than the client running on Windows, but it seems to work well enough, and at a decent speed provided that you have a low-latency link between yourself and the server. If anyone knows of someone to pick on at IBM/Lotus about getting a Linux-native client, I'd love to hear about it. Basically, I just want to tell someone, ``I'm running Lotus Notes client on Linux through WINE. It works, but it's not as good as a native client would be. Please look into creating a new client for Linux, or porting your current client, possibly with WINElib.'' Of course, Notes is buggy as hell anyway, so if there's just a bug reporting site, that'd be some great info to get as well.. -- _ _ _ _ _ ___ _ _ _ ___ _ _ __ If you're not part of the / \/ \(_)| ' // ._\ / - \(_)/ ./| ' /(__ solution, you're part of \_||_/|_||_|_\\___/ \_-_/|_|\__\|_|_\ __) the precipitate.
