Additional Comments

there is a work around for the setup.exe not displaying (doesn't under windows either) but even with that it has a serious error and crashes. use wineconsole: start /wait setup.exe --mode=Silent --deploymentFile="./deployment.xml" remember to enter your serial into deployment.xml

HowTo / Notes

HOWTO

To install on a clean .wine prefix In Ubuntu Jaunty or Karmic (from http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=14514):

If you already have wine installed, delete or rename your ~/.wine directory if you don't want to lose your current wine programs and uninstall your current wine installation by typing sudo apt-get remove wine in your terminal.

 You will need to install git if you do not already have it by typing sudo apt-get install git into your terminal. To download the wine git repository type ­git clone git://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git ~/wine-git

Type cd ~/wine-git to change directories to the wine source folder. You will need to use git to revert commit b8965ee7c90a687af4c84ad0ede73b1df901e16c by typing git show b8965ee7c90a687af4c84ad0ede73b1df901e16c | patch -p1 -R into your terminal and then you will need to apply this patch­ by typing  patch -p1 < ~/path/to/patch.diff

Now you need to compile wine. I compiled it by simply running ./tools/wineinstall as it recommends in the WINE installation instructions. Take a coffee break while WINE compiles and come back to download winetricks

 type cd to get back to your home directory.

wget http://www.kegel.com/wine/winetricks  will download winetricks­­

chmod +x winetricks will give winetricks executable permissions­
sh winetricks msxml6 gecko gdiplus vcrun2005sp1 ie6 winxp to install the required winetricks.

Now run the Setup.exe from your terminal by typing wine ~/path/to/Setup.exe

The buttons in the installer GUI will not be visible but by clicking around or tabbing you will be able to find them. On installation, I received an error that Setup.exe needed to close when Adobe Illustrator was installing but it didn't close for some reason and the installation completed.

Flash will now be installed but will crash at startup.

Some interesting things to note RE: the crash
  • The crash seems to happen when the splash screen says it is either "Moving First Run Files" or "Loading Standard Profiles". It seems to alternate between the two.
  • In Windows Flash sometimes crashes on start-up due to a problem with the configuration folder. Deleting it usually fixes the problem in Windows. In WINE, Flash still crashes, but it rebuilds the config folder before it does.
  • Changing winecfg to Windows 2000 got Flash to display the "help make our products better" regsitration dialogue but crashed immediately afterwards. 
  • Overriding atmlib.dll will get the splash screen to "Loading User Profile" before crashing.
