What works
Everything, except sound.
What does not
Nothing does not work, but the product relies on the underlying OS having a working MIDI synth, which is not installed by default on most Linux distros.... this is not a failing in the product, or in Wine.
Workarounds
Sound output requires a native MIDI synth which is not a standard feature of most Linux distros, I solved this by installing "fluidsynth", and running in a console, specifying "pulseaudio" as the output, and the provided soundfont from /usr/share/sounds/sf2/FluidR3_GM.sf2
Something like:- fluidsynth -a pulseaudio /usr/share/sounds/sf2/FluidR3_GM.sf2
(Some users have reported successusing "Timidity" also).
What was not tested
Hardware MIDI in/out (I have no reason to suspect that this would not work, since Wine appears to be able to map MIDI devices into the Windows environment).

Additional Comments
I really consider this to be closer to "Platinum", it runs without any extra components, VC runtimes etc... and the fact that you have to have a MIDI compatible synth seems obvious really, it's just co-incidental that Windows includes a basic MIDI synth by default.
Note that 2.75 allows you to use the file converter found here:-
http://nwc2musicxml.appspot.co...
to export the files to other products such as Musescore etc. (many of which can run natively)
