i also found this useful
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Sibelius_4
although now i think it is a little out of date. i gave up on timidity as i
found it to be terribly unstable with jack and sibelius. now i just use it
without sounds/playback. i concur on the graphic refresh issues and CPU
usage.

on a side note(heh)... i would much prefer to support linux notation apps
and i visit threads like this every 6 months or so. sibelius and wine work
great for me but i would much prefer a intuitive interface to lilypond
anyday, alas we are not there yet. but i am greatful for all the hard work
exploring this world.

also, svoufff... what does gdiplus.dll mfc42.dll, msvcirt.dll and
msvcp60.dll in ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32 do? do you have any info on
this?
