chief1 Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Will Home Designer Pro work on Ubuntu? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidJPotter Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 You would get a more certain answer by calling Chief Architect Inc Sales. My opinion is that their software is currently ported to Mac and Windows, I do not think it will install or run in Linux. DJP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kbird1 Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 I would do as David suggests and Call ales on Monday , but it is possible it may run under WINE in Ubuntu http://www.howtogeek.com/105271/how-to-run-windows-software-on-ubuntu-with-wine/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not natively on Linux but what about under an emulator/virtual Drive like Wine? Similar to how you could run the windows version under MAC OS before you did a full MAC OS Port 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katalyst777 Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 Something to keep in mind, this Knowledge Base article states: "Note: Please note that running in a emulator, or virtual machine environment, such as Parallels, VirtualBox or VMWare Fusion, is NOT supported for any version."http://www.homedesignersoftware.com/support/article/KB-00093/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KayNine Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 WINE is no good for use actual video card driver software, this is why it does not work good for 3D software. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprised to read that , after reading the article I linked to above which mention Gaming with Wine, but I have no WINE experience myself. M.
