As there isn't a Fedora version of MMEX that actually runs, and the compilation directions are wrong (they point to the MacOS instructions, which use MAcOS-specific parameters) I thought I'd at least try the MSWin version under Crossover Office. ***BAD IDEA***!!!!!
After installing, the application starts up, loads the basic application window, then LOCKS UP YOUR SYSTEM. Have tried this under Fedora 34, and Fedora 35. The mouse disappears, and the keyboard is unresponsive. The only thing that worked was to power-cycle the machine.
Do *not* install MMEX under Wine!

Re: Do *not* install MMEX under Wine!
Which instructions for Fedora were you following?
I don't use Fedora, but if there is a wrong link on the official pages, I would like to fix that.
