wine users - Jun 2011 - Airfoil in wine

Has anyone successfully installed Airfoil in wine? When I install it (Linux
distro: Mint/Ubuntu 11), wine complains about .NET 2 missing. But it seems to
install this automatically without problems. However, the Airfoil installation
"ends" with this:

Airfoil has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the
inconvenience. (Standard Microsoft message)

Then:

The program Airfoil.exe has encountered a serious problem and needs to close. We
are sorry for the inconvenience. (wine error message)

The installation "completes", however. Then, when I try to run the
program from the ...drive_c/Program Files..... folder, this error message shows:

** (./Airfoil.exe:11118): WARNING **: The following assembly referenced from
/home/frank/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Airfoil/Airfoil.exe could not be loaded:

Always check to see if the program you are trying to run through WINE has a
native version for your operating system or if there is an equivalent
alternative that runs natively in your operating system, first.

Always check the AppDB for your program, second:
http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=17399

The AppDB says to use AirFoil Speakers for Linux. Don't bother trying to get
it working in WINE.

Well, hope it works for you.

Cheers,
Jake
