installing photoshop in ubuntu with wine

Installing has to be done in an earlier wine version, 1.1.17
(or perhaps 1.1.16).
The procedure is exactly like this test :
http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=
version&iId=14318&iTestingId=39823.
The exceptions being that one more thing is needed for the install to work properly,
winetricks ie6 and that I used the 1.1.17 version.

Here follows the installation guide:

1. If you have used wine before, please start of with a clean .wine folder.
Or bottle you Photoshop by doing every action with a specific wineprefix.

2. Install Wine 1.1.17 from
http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/archive/index.html

3. Download winetricks and install necessary libraries.
Also make sure you have a decent driver for your graphics card installed.

wget http://www.kegel.com/wine/winetricks
sh winetricks msxml6 gdiplus gecko vcrun2005 ie6
sudo apt-get install msttcorefonts

3. LANG=C before the following command like this:

LANG=C wine Setup.exe

4. To fix the text-layer bug, put atmlib.dll in
“~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system 32″.
You can download it from several places if you search it on google.

5. Install Wine 1.1.20 from
http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/archive/index.html
(or your package manager), to fix the menu bar bug.

6. Try running.

You can delete
/home/[USER]/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/
Common Files/Adobe/Updater6/Adobe_Updater.exe
to stop adobe updater (or unselect it during installation way down in the unexpanded list)
