EasyWorship 2009, openSuSE 12.3, HP Elitebook 2740p (with one monitor attached to the VGA output, and another attached to Displa

Installation from CrossTie proceeds well except failure to install FlashX ActiveX control.
I was able to install the Flash 9 ActiveX (but not Flash10) into the EasyWorship bottle later using the CrossOver Software Installer.

By default, the CrossTie installs EasyWorship so that it runs from a virtual desktop (a small window).

A much better experience, if you have two monitors, is to not use a virtual desktop.

  • Set EasyWorship's options so that it does NOT display 'Live' by default.
    ** That can be done by a tickbox in EasyWorship's 'Advanced' options.
  • Then set CrossOver, via the winecfg in 'Manage Bottles', to not use a virtual desktop.
  • Start EasyWorship. From EasyWorship's options the 'Live' display, either first or second monitor (I don't have a third), can be set.
  • Go Live!

From GNOME it is possible to 'kill' the Live Display by pressing the 'Windows' key to get the window overview, and clicking the
little 'close' button at the top-right of the Live Display overview. This might confuse Crossover/WINE, however...

  • This allowed me to view the EasyWorship control window when the 'Live' display was on the same screen. Unfortunately,
    using 'Ctrl-Space' and 'Esc' did not switch me to the control window.

Transitions work, at least to some extent.
I have not tested video backgrounds.
Powerpoint Import, using Powerpoint Viewer, appears to work. However, lots of windows appear to be left behind
after displaying a powerpoint if I use GNOME's window overview function.

Was not able to access SongSelect, although other web-pages were visible via the Media tab.
Eventually EasyWorship appears to be at high risk of just stopping.

Overall, EasyWorship appears to be more usable with CrossOver 13 than with CrossOver 9.
