It's easy :) Install wine and winesetupkt. Then get sol.exe [NOTE: this is
copyrighted by MS so you need to own one copy of Windows just to use
run this!!]
Then, just type:
wine sol.exe
it should start config script [first time run]. Just select fake
windows install and Win95 or something for look and feel...
Finish,
Next time you run wine sol.exe you'll get solitare. :)

PS. it is easier to use older, Win95 or 98 version of sol.exe as it
doesn't depend on some stupid cards.dll and stuff..
