Ok... I don't know if there are anyone else than i who uses Linux here, but if there is, this may be useful.
===PART 1===
If you are using a distro without the "yum" command, get and RPM/DEB m.m. at http://www.winehq.org/ (try "man yum", if you get an error, you have no yum:( )
If you are using a distro with yum(Fedora, RedHat Enterprise, m.m.), just use
> su -l
Password: (Password to "Root" user)
> yum -y install wine
Then wait for it to install
When it is done, you can run Windows .EXE applications by running the command "wine path to .exe"
And, yes i know that f.ex. SuSe uses apt-get instead of yum, but i don't know the args for apt-get, since i am using Fedora 9 Sulphur. If anyone can post the command for apt-get i can add it here
===PART 2===
Run EliteMap
You might have noticed, that if you double-click any of the EliteMap applications, it says something similar to "Pokeroms.ini not found" or "No gba roms in current directory at all", that is beacuse Nautilus(GNOME) or Konquerror(KDE), sets the Current Directory to /home/(your username, a.k.a. your Home Folder.
These examples will assume that you have installed EliteMap in C: \Program Files\EliteMap.
So if you want to run it, you can either:
Method #1, Run from Terminal only, more stable
> cd (wherever your Hack Project's folder is)
> ln -s /home/(your username)/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/EliteMap/* .
That will create Symbolic Links to every Application in the Folder for EliteMap, then you can just type
> wine ./(program)
TIP: Press tab to auto-complete, press twice to show all possibilities
Method #2, Run from App bar, not that stable as #1, can make a mess in your homefolder...
> cd
> ln -s [I](wherever your rom is) .
Then add the Applications to the App Bar!
You can also create an .desktop file, but it is pretty advanced, and requires a lot of time and Photoshoping, so i won't explain it here
Method #3, Run like any command... (thanks to IIMarckus (http://www.pokecommunity.com/member.php?u=64049))
> export PATH=$PATH:/home/(your username)/.wine/Program\ Files/EliteMap/
after that, just run for example PokePic.exe when you are in the Rom directory
Hope this helped!
