eTax 2011 still broken (Wine 1.2.2, Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx)
by Philip Machanick on Thursday September 8th 2011, 3:27
I opened a saved file and it views and prints OK (with some font glitches) but help is still broken, and accessing the network e.g. for updates doesn't work (though that is also broken on Windows on my network, since the eTax software doesn't grok proxies). So could be an option if you don't need NW services like prefilling to fill in the form and print it (or copy to Windows machine just to submit).
