You need to install some sort of LINUX emulator device that can bring up a graphics window. I'm not too sure on the specifics of that, but try the product called XWin32. You can get a 30-day free trial before you have to pay. Someone else more knowledgeful of this issue will be able to provide better assistance, though.<br>
