OK guys,

I just succeed to run Dreamweaver on my GentooBox, but, (you knew it, huh, that there'll be a but ;)), I got one bug so far.

First what I did.

I just emerged the latest stable build for my arch (AMD64) : wine-20050725-r1

Code:
emerge wine


then, as the dreamweaver installer crashed whatever I did, I copied the installation directory from a fresh install from a WinXP computer
(the whole Macromedia dir, which contains Dreamweaver and Extension Manager)
to my Wine directory ( ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files).

By the way I use WinXP emul as the install was made on a winxp.

And now, when I try

Code:
wine .wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Macromedia/Dreamweaver\ 8/Dreamweaver.exe


It does work, everything seems fine so far, except one "essential thing" : Creating a new website in the website manager.
(as i use the french version pf dw, i don't know the right label, but, ...nevermind)

So when I do :
-> Manage website
-> New website

DW freezes, and on the console, it says :

Code:
err:x11drv:X11DRV_CreateWindow invalid window height -2
err:ole:CoGetClassObject class {a9e69610-b80d-11d0-b9b9-00a0c922e750} not registered
err:ole:create_server class {a9e69610-b80d-11d0-b9b9-00a0c922e750} not registered


So I thought it might be the ole library, but I just don't have any f*** idea on how to handle it. Can I change this library ? How ?

Well, I upgraded to Wine-20050930 and it works, it's still a bit buggy, but it seems to work.

[edit] I still have the same error but dreamweaver don't crash...it works ;)

I reply to myself :

you can't expect to work with that method, 'cause it's so buggy you'll become crazy.

A better way is to use Qemu with Win2K and Dreamweaver. (With WinXP it's too slow, but with Win2K it's slow but workable).
Install a FTP server on your gentoobox and use only Dreamweaver in Qemu.
