You shouldn't have to copy Photoshop from Windows; just install
it under Wine by running its Setup.exe. (To run a .exe under wine,
you have to doubleclick it, right click and choose "Run with Wine",
or run it from the commandline using the 'wine' command, depending
on how your Linux distribution integrates Wine.)

Does upgrade or full version matter?
by Eric Lorenz on Wednesday December 30th 2009, 23:11
I am a fairly new Ubuntu user...and I have 9.04 running on my IBM laptop. I am attempting to install Photoshop CS- but it is an UPGRADE version (from 5.5). I cannot seem to get it to install successfully. I issue is the upgrade check- I can't do search CD, as the CS CD is 'locked' in the drive and cannot be released while the install program is active. So, I installed 5.5 first (went fine, seems to run OK). When I look for the folder where the 5.5 install is to verify, I get an error message saying "Verification error: A qualifying version of Photoshop was not detected", but the install program itself says it's looking for anything 5.0 or higher. Am I doing something wrong here, or should I report this?
