Hi,
I've been trying to install ChemDraw 11.0 (not on AppDB), using the site license owned by my department on Ununtu 8.04 using Wine 0.9.59. I got the installation to go OK, but when I start the program I get stuck at the part where you put the registration code in and activate the program. When I choose the "Activate over the internet" option, nothing happens for a while, then it says the server timed out. I think the program can't access the internet (however, the win version of firefox seems to do fine).
When I use the "Activate over email/phone/fax", a browser window is supposed to come up with details that I'm supposed to send to the company. Instead nothing happens and I get the following in the terminal:
preloader: Warning: failed to reserve range 00000000-60000000
err:dosmem:setup_dos_mem Cannot use first megabyte for DOS address space, please report
Usage: winebrowser URL
I noticed that when I start firefox, every time it thinks it is not the default browser no matter how many times I click "Yes" to make it so. I tried the package in winetricks which makes it look like internet explorer is installed, but I get the same thing with ChemDraw.
Any ideas?

You should also upgrade Wine; the version you are using is old.
OK,
I followed the instructions on that page, also installed a few things from winetricks because of other error messages and updated to wine 1.0. Now I still get the following when I start the program:
fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),0,0x32f61c,0x00000000), stub!
However, it seems to start fine as before. "Activate over the internet" still does not work, and when the program tries to open a browser for "Activate by email/phone/fax", I get the following:
err:winebrowser:wmain Usage: winebrowser URL
So I think basically if I can get the program to open a browser properly it will be fine. Does anyone know why this still is not working?

I downloaded the demo. The app requires .NET 2.0, and that doesn't really work in Wine yet.
This is a regression in wine. See http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13891
The last commenter says he has a workaround:
"
Great!
Just appended a "%1" to any line in system.reg containing winebrowser.exe and
it works
Thank you!
"
Well, i see often comments like this, but actually there are quite some .Net 2.0 apps that happen to work fine. Just give it a try, and see if you can get it running.
