Anybody running DxO on Linux?

Hello,

I currently have DxO & Photoshop on my laptop, but I'm also planning
to build a rather powerful Linux workstation later this year (when AMD
releases the native Quad Cores) and would love to run both apps on
Linux using WINE. I know some people has been able to run CS2 with
different degrees of success, but what about DxO?

Thx,

Erasmo.

Which DxO? Optics Pro? I just tried that. The installer crashes
unless you have native msxml3 installed, and it requires .NET 2.0,
which isn't supported under Wine yet.

Presumably it will work when running it under VMware, Xen, or KVM
virtualization solutions. Note, you will need a legal Windows license for the
Windows installation. I would recomend getting XP before the end of the year
(Vista requires you to go premium to run under a virtualization scheme).
