<img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/smile.gif" alt="" /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/lmao.gif" alt="" /> <br /> <br /> Ok, I installed Kubuntu and passed some sweet hours with it. <br /> I managed to settle the configurations (even my wireless card) , all runs fine and updated <br /> problems with Wine and Poser, sometimes it runs, sometimes not. Actually it is not working (when I try to move something the inside screen disappears) <br /> I tried all kind of different configurations but actually I failed <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/connie_ashamed.gif" alt="" /> <br /> <br /> I'll test it again tomorrow or later ( <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/lazy.gif" alt="" /> )

Ok so what you are saying is you had to get the WINE software for Poser <br /> to even come close to work and it is not in the Kubuntu package. What WINE operation did you get and can you point <br /> me to the site? <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/ph34r.gif" alt="" /> This is very interesting by the way. <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

Ubutnu/Kubuntu makes a plain installation, then it has an automatic upgrading utility, I've it translated in italian, however you find it in the programs menu it's "Add/Remove programs". You have a quick search box, type in it "wine", select it and it will install. Now you can directly install Windows programs by clicking on them, there is also a configuration utility that comes with wine and i found a Winescript that tricks a little the program (winth not much luck...) <br /> <br /> You find the .wine (hideen directory) under /home/(your name)/.wine <br /> <br /> here it is a windows subdirectory, then also a fonts subdirectory. <br /> <br /> I noticed that moving there the fonts that you find in the usual /windows/fonts directory make the installation work better... <br /> <br /> BTW with Add/Remove programs you can directly install a lot of programs like blender, firefox, Gimp etc. <br /> <br /> About the Wine windows emulation you can find documentation, faq and a forum here <br /> <br /> <a class="post-url" href="http://www.winehq.org/" target="_blank">http://www.winehq.org/</a>

About Poser, Now it is working but as I said I'll have to learn more. <br /> <br /> Actually it is a little slower then the one in Windows, I think it's due to the linux video Driver. I installed the accelerated 3D driver for Ati Cards but I need to find something better. <br /> <br /> I'm going to try it with games <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/connie_yoyo.gif" alt="" /> <br /> <br /> I'll let you know.

An add, I'm trying to render a complicate scene using 4 separate threads together, that was impossible in windows and Poser 7 (I've to use only one) . And it is working <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_shifty.gif" alt="" /> ...

Very interesting Davide. Keep going. <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/thumb.gif" alt="" />

I just fu**d up my Kubuntu trying to trick with ATI drivers <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/crybaby2.gif" alt="" /> .... <br /> <br /> I've to begin from scratch... I want to use Ubuntu instead, rayera says it's lighter... <br /> <br /> (but not now... <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/lazy.gif" alt="" /> )

<img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/sign4.gif" alt="" /> I didn't dare trying to install Poser, yet. I'm simply happy to have a working system and being able to access all my data, for now. There's a lot to learn. I'm messing with the restrictive rights management, still. <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> <br /> I installed Opera (generic linux) to find out there's i.e. no flash player supported by macromedia for opera@linux so I have to use one of firefox's family browser for the web to work. <br /> All the common stuff, multi media and www works very well. the rest will come step by step ....

So where do you get the driver support for Soundcard and VGA Card? <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/dash2.gif" alt="" /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Oh! By the way thats Fu**ed up Torm. Spelling 101. <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/redembarrassed.gif" alt="" />

They are already built in, but I wanted to have more <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/redembarrassed.gif" alt="" />

Yes Tormie, but is not Ubuntu that is lighter but the basic X that is Gnome, is less beautiful and Mac OS like, but lighter.

Next question? Not many people express themselves the way you do.

I did some test in my Ubuntu and I can install and run Poser 7 and Daz Studio 1.8.2.1 not newer versions of DS nor Poser 5 or 6 <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/smile.gif" alt="" /> I'm using Wine 0.9.59 in Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron

Really you don't think so?

It's off topic, but I'm trying Vista 64 bit, it looks like a little better from the first one that I tried and the renders are faster. I'll play with it for a while <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/connie_yoyo.gif" alt="" /> ...

A great news I think for ahjah, <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/JC_howdy.gif" alt="" /> I WAS ABLE TO RUN POSER 6 IN UBUNTU <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_dance.gif" alt="" /> <br /> and it runs even faster than P7 <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/thumb.gif" alt="" /> <br /> <br /> I did it under Ubuntu 8.04.1 hardy, <br /> <br /> and thru wine 1.1.3+3dmarkPatch-1 <br /> <br /> I downloade it from here <a class="post-url" href="http://www.getdeb.net/app/Wine" target="_blank">http://www.getdeb.net/app/Wine</a> <br /> <br /> Hope it works for you friend so you can use Poser again and under Linux <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/TFR718 (6).gif" alt="" />

<img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/TFR718 (6).gif" alt="" /> Thanks, my friend. <br /> I'll give it a try, when I have more time. I have to re-organize my whole sytem. Right now, it's a complete mess. Partitioning, that don't make sense anymore, leftovers of former win installation etc... <br /> At the moment, I'm working with Kanotix linux. It's a Debian based on the Ubuntu kernel, but I'm on KDE. Maybe, I have to try Gnome to get Poser work <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_think.gif" alt="" />
