Hi all, i'll first have to say sorry my erratic odd english, that even when is understandable , is... quite strange, i'm from other country.. you know...
Now, i have been looking at the post of Wine looking for a solution for one problem i'm having. sadly but kind of funny for me, i'm always ending in a problem trying to solve another problem which cause was looking for a solution for another problem, but as it must be done, i'm making things step by step, now this is the deal; i tried some applications i had for windows (no regrets or something for left Wista XD) and ran very smooth, cool indeed, but when i tried to install Adobe's Illustrator, Photoshop and Flash, the installer didn't run, and i mean, didn't run. I tried to cover almost anything i had in mind, for example, the '.Wine' Directory seem to emulate the Windows system, as it is composed of a 'C' directory in which we can find 'Program Files' and 'Windows', obviously i guessed it was about the dll or other kind of libraries that Windows's System have as default, unfortunately i couldn't Copy/Paste some files i had ready as my Ubuntu couldn't dealt with my USB (err... other issue i'm solving right now) nevertheless, i looked further with the internet, i heard of this problem but with different applications, none Installers.. (did i said 'hear'?, i meant 'read'), also some little weird things about the latest version of Wine for example 'Ares Galaxy' closing for some errors and 'minimizing' in a glitchy way, but all (but the issue of installer) compressible for being Wine 1.1.11, the Question, how can i solve this?
Wine 1.1.11 Clean (i mean, no skins or further modifications, nor even Dlls just some programs and unchecked two checkboxes from the options of Wine)
Ubuntu 8.10 Semi-Clean (i can say i started the new year with new OS, but i already started too customize it at my like)
Thank you in advances, Happy new '09 and congratulations for make such useful tool, it makes life a sweet as GNU/Linux do for advanced users of OSs =)
Wine is not running at some installers
First stop is the http://appdb.winehq.org Look up application remember to click through on version and see if there are any special instructions.
Some cases it can be a simple regression in wine code.
Flash you normally don't install in wine instead use native Linux version.
~/.wine/drive_c/ is the virtual C driver location. Wine is not windows. If you just copy windows in you end up with more strange problems than you can dream.
Run wine from console and on stderr output wine will display debuging information that is sometimes really helpful to know how program failed.
I hope my english is read able enough. I am native english with dyslexia your english is not too bad.

=S
A it's ok =P, the deal is that we both can understand what the other say, now i checked the App Database, it's a little disappointing find that CS3 is current 'Garbage' status, as well as some other applications, i find GIMP kind of interesting but the way the panels are distributed are uncomfortably, =(, perhaps (because i couldn't find Linux version of flash) i'll have to look for some other softwares then =C, there are good ones, but some of the best are for Windows.
Thanks anyway Pal =)

Re: Wine is not running at some installers
ye, i understand how is handled all that somehow, what doesn't make sense to me is that the installer itself can't run, i understand also that CS3 may not work in the current version of Wine, but are we talking that it doesn't work from the installer itself? while i wrote the last reply i had myself a research loooking for some software, but still no luck. would the stable version solve my problems? at least with installers?
