yes, wine --version gives wine-1.1.28

I have the dotnet3.5.exe here separately and it errors out exactly the same way if I run it. Do I need special qualifiers to install it?

Hmmm... all testing machines installed NET 3.5 successful. If you don`t have nothing better to do run setup one more time and make screenshots of all NET 3.5 errors  :)

I removed my .wine folder and let your install run again, MS can take a couple of GB downloads I guess :D

Nope, still this error. See attachment.

Strange.

Try using dotNetFx35setup.exe.
Download it and run thru wine directly.

It never worked for me so maybe it will run :)

I presume that .NET 2.0 installed without errors?

Ok, the 2,7MB dotNetFx35setup.exe errors out, too. I'll try a different language setting, maybe it's that stupid.

EDIT: No, still errors on me.

It is an AMD64 bit Version of Ubuntu, maybe that's what causes some confusion.

Maybe, maybe. I didn't test net on 64 bit systems.
Give me wine console output when .net installer crashes.

I don`t have slightest idea what is wrong.
Maybe I will think something tomorrow... for now I'm going sleep it is almost midnight here  :)

Same here, too (timewise), thanks for looking into it, mabye I put this on hold till you get your GUI version into gears. As a sidenote: VirtualBox won't run the game, too, since it supports only DX8 IIRC. I tried.

GUI is only visual enhancement if .NET installer crash now it will not help.

Anybody else got 64bit distro and can test .NET 3.5 installer?

I'm running 64-bit Ubuntu on an Intel machine but I don't have enough bandwidth left this month to download .NET.  I've been itching to try this, so I will test at the earliest available opportunity (Tuesday).

K. Don`t use script - it downloads full installer twice.

- Remove ~/.wine
- Download http://www.kegel.com/wine/winetricks
- Run: sh winetricks dotnet20
- Download online installer - dotNetFx35setup.exe
- Run it and pray.
- Share the results :-)

EDIT: Or faster:
- Remove ~/.wine
- Download now only dotNetFx35setup.exe (~2mb) and try run it. It crashing on start or starting download?
