Foobar runs fine on Wine .. No eyecandy though .. It even update the tags (last played time and played counter) of those files ...
I tried in vain to configure Maxthon to run under Ubuntu .. Same with Yahoo Messenger ..

utorrent and flashget run perfect with all features working.

flashgot(FF extension) now supports flashget installed under wine and so they make a sweet combo.

@gaurav, you run FF under wine just for the sake of a skin????:confused:

Yep, AppDB of Wine has the list and also the workarounds if required. Why are we building a list here?

Hmmm .. I'd think thats personal preference .. Though I use Notepad++ on my Windows machine but I really like using Vim on my Unix terminal and Ubuntu installation ..

Notepad++ was MADE only because windows lacked a powerful GPLed feature rich text editor. It was supposed to give a feel of GVim, Gedit, Kate, etc to the average windows user and be as light.

So I feel there is no point trying to use it in linux. It has equi-featured alternatives.

Nyway, lemme add another program:
