PhotoShop 7 up and running in Linux

You should support the GIMP and not use PhotoShop.

I’m running it through a program called wine.

It allows you to run windows compatable software on Linux.

Performance is as good as when I ran it on Win 2k except startup takes maybe a couple of seconds longer.. Other than that, I don’t notice any difference.

I’m alo running ACDSee and Forte Agent (posting this with it)..

I’m also going to install Guild which is my favorite ftp server..

Be reasonable. Since many folks do not use the full power of Photoshop, the GIMP is perfectly adequate. It isn’t a bad program at all. That it is not quite Photoshop is
not a sin. Lots of programs aren’t quite Photoshop.

I’m running it through wine http://www.winehq.com/ a crossover program which allows you to run windows based programs.

I’m using PhotoShop 7 as well as ACDSee and Forte Agent.

Actually I like Gimp. I’ve played with it and find it on a par with PhotoShop Elements which I would consider to be pretty good..

I am. Note I’m not the one making a blanket statement, and neither Adobe’s actions to date nor the cost are justification enough for print professionals to hamstring their income by adopting something completely unsuited for their work.

And, Paul – experimental, recently-added partial CMYK support isn’t "not quite" Photoshop.

Congratulations. There goes my biggest excuse for not converting. Now to find the time to learn a new OS,

Don’t worry about too much Colyn; I’m running CS on a Win2k PC and it takes a hell of a lot longer to init than PS7 did with 1/3 of the original plugins. Off course, Adobe suppport says this is imgained…apparently a *lot* of people are sharing my imagination.

have you put up your experience on the web, step by step instructions that is. as increasing numbers of windows programs shift to activation, more users will be interested in linux, and how to run their apps on it. for me, photoshop elements 2, and agent are two must-haves on my windows machines.

It’ll be fine as long as you don’t need to process large images. Then you’ll find out why it’s called whine 😉

If you can afford it, VMWare, which allows multiple OSs on a single workstation is a much better bet.

I’ve processed some files as large as 10-15 meg which is as large as I was doing in Win 2k with no problems..

If you can afford it, VMWare, which allows multiple OSs on a single workstation is a much better bet.

Since I’m only going to run a few win programs, wine is good enough for me..

Speaking of functionality, it might be true. The interface (at least in Windows) sucks very badly. After a few weeks, I uninstalled it. The functionality is quite good, but as long as the menus are so annoying, I won’t install it again.

Nope, and I’ll tell you what else it isn’t:

Not AutoFX plugins – PS CS without any AutoFX plugins takes longer to load than PS7 with *all* the AutoFX plugins

Not the amount of plugins – I reduced them to a third of the PS7 plugins…no effect

Not the amount of memory – changes to the amount allocated to PS make no difference.

Not the twain plugin – though removing it loads both versions faster, and since I don’t often scan directly into PS this isn’t an issue

Not the amount of fonts installed – though I have a large number of fonts installed, this isn’t where PS slows down…on either version

Of course if you bring this up on the PS forums at Adobe, Chris Cox will cut and paste a reply pointing you to another thread that doesn’t help at all. (In fact if it wasn’t for another user there I wouldn’t have even been able to find the thread.)

I wonder when Adobe is going to own up to the fact that there *IS* an issue since so many others seem to be making the same complaint. I should note that I don’t have a problem with performance once CS is running (as some folks have been posting) just this interminable wait to get plugins loaded. If anyone has an idea I haven’t tried yet, I’d sure appreciate hearing from you.

Oh, yeah. Mainly to take my mind off clients for a few minutes.

Kooks tend to be ubiquitous these days, though. Most groups have one or two, though the quality doesn’t seem to be gaining anything from the quantity.

Ahh, they’re useful as punching bags.

Up to a point. There’s an esepcially pathetic one in Talk.Origins at the moment – a fan of both Elron Hubbard and a young Earth Creationist named Kent Hovind…despite Hubbard’s wierd religion needing a universe billions of years old and Hovind’s wierd religion needing it to be 6,000. Might be a Holocaust revisionist, too, but he’s so illucid, well…

He’s so beaten and bloody at this point it’s hardly worth the effort. Probably part of what Paul was talking about.
