I have a few writer friends (one of them won the NaNoWriMo contest) who use Ubuntu as OS, and they bother me not to try Scrivener. So i’ve tried to install Scrivener with wine. The installation process has completed, but it crashes at start.
Is there any linux geek here to help me knowing why ?
I think Linux users for Scrivener could be an additional source of fans and fame for Scrivener

There’s all the steps you need. Most importantly, you need to be using at least 1.3.5 of wine and a few things installed via winetricks. (Additionally corefonts, if you’d like better fonts than what normally comes with wine.)
