wine users - Feb 2006 - Installing visio 2003 with wine

Hi, folks.

My name is Breno and I'm new to this list. The main reason that made me  
subscribe it is that I've recently changed from the Microsoft world to the  
Linux world and I'm marvelled. I'm using fedora core 4 and it is working
perferct for me.

The problem is that I am an engineer and most of my job is done using  
microsoft visio. Unhapply Dia is not being enought for me.

I've tried to install Visio with the last version of wine. Some windows  
pop-up, I'm even able to insert the registration key but, when it comes to  
the real instalation it fails.

Can any one help me with a visio 2003 instalation guide using wine?

Thanks in advance to everyone.

Breno.

Start out by checking the AppDB:

Also, Visio is a CodeWeavers supported app, so you might want to fork
out a few $$ to be sure that it runs properly:

Other than that, you could also try the KDE clone "Kivio" (what a lame
name).

If you still have problems (which is still expected with many apps..),
 1.) run your wine app from a console.  Run it with
"WINEDEBUG=fixme-all wine <app.exe>" if there's enough error
information without the fixme's (hard to judge..), otherwise just with
"wine <app.exe>".
 2.) report your problem here along with a copy/paste of relevant
errors from the console.
