Are you running a 64-bit system? If so, you might require the 32-bit version of "lib-atk". Also, which version of Picasa are you running? Open up a command line window and execute the following (you can copy-n-paste each command from here to make it easier ... for those who dont know ...with *nix, you highlight the text then move to the target window and "middle click" the mouse and the highlighted text will be pasted - no need to CTRL-C, CTRL-V :): export PIC_BINDIR="/opt/google/picasa/3.0/bin" (WINEDEBUG=1 "$PIC_BINDIR"/wrapper winedumpfontver.exe.so "AR PL ZenKai Uni") (the previous line (WINEDEBUG...) is a single line ... it may get truncated or word-wrapped in this editor) You should see output as the following (different user of course): mtob...@stimpy:~> (WINEDEBUG=1 "$PIC_BINDIR"/wrapper winedumpfontver.exe.so "AR PL ZenKai Uni") AR PL ZenKai Uni /opt/google/picasa/3.0/wine/bin/wineserver /opt/google/picasa/3.0/wine/lib/wine/winedumpfontver.exe.so fixme:ntoskrnl:KeInitializeSpinLock 0x457784 mtob...@stimpy:~> On an openSUSE system, we can execute this (after downloading the Picasa RPM): sudo zypper install picasa-3.0-current.i386.rpm zypper will resolve the required dependencies, download and install them and then Picasa 3.0. It's been years since I've used Fedora, so am not familiar with their high-level package management system. If Fedora uses zypper, you might want to try running the above. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google-Labs-Picasa-for-Linux" group.
