Hi i have just started using linux... swaped over from XP
I have a leagle copy of Photoshop cs4....
It is installed on V-Box
I am running Mint 9 - Gnome standard 32 bit....
I have tried to follow the instructions...
Also hunted posts, google etc
I have tried with the latest wine...
Also with wine 1.1.19, with wine 1.1.17 & wine 1.1.23
Each time i start fresh... install the winetricks.. as follows...

sh winetricks msxml6 gdiplus gecko vcrun2005 ie6 dcom98i aslo have added the atmlib.dll as native
i run the command in a terminal.... LANG=C wine Setup.exeThe photoshop installer fires up... but then tells me it needs html rendering & will install GECKO.... but it is installed ????then it downloads the package..
then it prints in the teminal... something like... Failed.. Rendering will be disabled....Then it just stalls....even if i leave it over-night ??????Can some one PLEASE help me..... this Linux stuff is driving me Crazey..

ThanksDAVE

Start with a fresh WinePrefix and follow the how-to in the following
Applications Database entry:

Copying the OP's reply that somehow became a new thread on the forum:

Hi James
Thanks.
but that was where i started, Have been round & round all articles etc i can find..about this... still No Joy
I have even tried to copy over the V-box XP files....
I am not sure about trying the Compile wine from source... not up to that level yet.
I have been working on this for about a week now....
Just dont know. If i install Gecko first it fails.. if i leave Gecko out until prompted.. it still fails...?????
I have even looked on the Gecko forums... did not find any-thing..easy... i get lost if it gets to technical...
IS Photoshop cs4 extended any different to install, Because that is what i have....
Any way thanks for the reply.

Please stick to this thread. I have closed the other one.

Blame it on me and the messed up Web Mail client I use during the day.

However, I will stick by my original reply to use the How-To in the Applications Database. It may bring joy, but it appears this did not happen. I have nothing further to add as I don't use or possess this program.
