That's a headache in it's own right.

Havent actually tested SS under WINE or other Win Emus (ok, i know the official line is they aint emu's, but we know that's pretty much what they are).

But i'm pretty sure there are things that are installed into a Windows environment (by Windows, by the Sony software, or both) that are not present or handleable 'yet' under Wine and suchlike. Could very well be a driver issue that's simply not substitutable at this time.

That said, it was a good while since i read anything on people's attempts to get SS running in Linux, so maybe my recollections are wrong.

*prepares self's virtual furry ass for the incoming kicking/flaming ... if info given is inaccurate*

Shame really, if it simple aint happening, being able to run SS under Linux, as that would be one simple gesture (to get it WINE friendly and some Linux device drivers) - as the no. of Sony users who do run Dual OS systems is not infinately tiny, and i'm sure there are plenty of long term users who (especially in the MD circles) who would love to simply run SS under WINE and add appropriate driver/handlers to their Nix installation for device use.

Sounds like a classic Dual Bootable OS setup to me, Windows for Sony and other non-Nix compliant soft, Nix for what you can get reproduced on the Nix side of life.
