I've tried running it on OpenSuse 11..2 with Wine; I get the opening splash screen, then it locks up. (I don't remember the version of Chairgun; it was the newest one as of about six months ago.) I think it would go with some messing about with Wine settings, but I just haven't taken the time to figure it out. I really should.  |

I'm getting the same thing on Mint. Splash screen opens then a code error.
I looked into it and it seems that the code is completely incompatible with wine and would need to be rewritten... somebody offered but the developer was not interested. |

The old Linux story, not a big enough consumer base to interest windows developers.  |

Yup.

Has anyone here tried VirtualBox? I use it to run anything that Wine can't. You need a Windows disc laying around to install with, but it's nice to emulate a Windows desktop from your Linux OS.
I've been running chairgun on it...
