What works
Installation works fine.
Text chat to/from phones works perfectly. Voice calls seemed to work just fine.
The emoticons don't make the translation from phone to Windows (but I think that's the desktop application, not Wine).
What does not
Video calling couldn't find the camera on my end. I could see the video from the other end.
I can't quit the app: it displays in the notification in the bar, but left/right clicking on it does nothing. Exiting takes a "killall Viber.exe". Double clicking does open the window, as expected.
Workarounds
What was not tested
I haven't tried calling phones.
Some DLL hacks or something might have helped with the video.
