I have Ubuntu 4.10  |  IP: Logged Dave Macaulay Film God Posts: 2321 From: Toronto, Canada Registered: Apr 2001 posted 02-09-2016 11:01 AM                     Looks like NO. The only link goes to a windows download.  |  IP: Logged Pietro Clarici Expert Film Handler Posts: 136 From: Foligno (PG) Italy Registered: Sep 2008 posted 02-09-2016 11:06 AM                        The Windows version of DCC runs fine in Mac OS X using Wine (www.winehq.org). I've never tried, but there is a Wine binary package for Ubuntu too.  |  IP: Logged Dave Macaulay Film God Posts: 2321 From: Toronto, Canada Registered: Apr 2001 posted 02-09-2016 11:13 AM                     It does run under WINE according to reliable sources. WINE runs on most any flavor Linux/Unix - plus Mac OSX which is really BSD "Unix".  |  IP: Logged Frank A Cianciolo Film Handler Posts: 15 From: Clinton, Michigan USA Registered: Oct 2013 posted 02-09-2016 12:22 PM                        Thanks Guys - Wine worked!  |  IP: Logged Leo Enticknap Film God Posts: 7474 From: Loma Linda, CA Registered: Jul 2000 posted 02-09-2016 01:22 PM                        Yup - I use DCC under WINE (both the series 1 and 2 variants) without any problems. Just as long as WINE can interface the Windows app with your network connection (ethernet or wifi, depending on what you're using) and apply the settings from those of the Linux operating system it's installed on (whether static or DHCP address and that sort of stuff), no problem.  |  IP: Logged
