I have three computers for our local village photo club that will have Ubuntu and one with Xubuntu. The one with Xubuntu will have to have Gimp, but on the other 3 I want to install Wine and use Photoshop Elements (not the new one, but we have 3 legal copies of an older version). These computers don't have internet conections, so I would like to load Wine on them. I am not sure which wine link I download and how then to load it from the disk onto the computers.
Any help gratefully recieved
Tony

Many thaks for that link. I thought it would be too much to ask for it to go smoothly, when loading it came up with:
Error: Dependency is not satisfiable:binfmt-support
What is the next stage to loading please
Thank you

This is why you really need to be connected to the internet. None of the programming languages are installed properly.

Connecting them to the internet is a No as they have no connections. These are basic computers rigged up for one purpose amd yes done on the cheap as the club just pays for the hall. Any other expenditure seems to be mine, but then I do run it.
So is there no way to achieve it other than the internet?

Well, if you have an internet connection, you can search that in Synaptic and install it. If you don't...get an internet connection, I guess. Maybe you could burn the package to disk, but that would still take a connection, and I'm not sure where to find packages like that. I've heard of collections you can order online with the entire Debian repos, that are also downloadable, but you really need that connection for serious stuff. Debian repos disks order: http://www.osdisc.com/cgi-bin/view.cgi/products/linux/ubuntu/repo.html , seems wasteful though.

I had these problems before i could get the internet working with Ubuntu.
Is there any way you can connect the computers to the internet temporarily? E.g. at your house?
The dependencies need to be installed. This is how Linux works, there is no registry like there is in Windows.

Its very awkward. But, if that's the only way then it shall have to be.
Many thanks
