I assume you are installing in windows, you may try what the error message states and remove the trial version.

I seriously doubt that visual studio 2005 will run in wine.
Install virtualbox, put windows xp on it and then install VS 2005.
In this case I think virtualization is the way to go.

I have both VB6 and VS2008 running in Virtual Box.
Here's my setup.
Ubuntu 8.10, then I installed Sun xVM VirtualBox, then I installed XP service pack 2 with Framework up to 3.5 and then I installed VB6 and VS 2008. Both working great without errors.

MAKE SURE, that you DO NOT install Virtual Box from repositories. Install it from this link: http://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads

and MAKE SURE that you install the correct version for your linux distro, NOT your CPU. Eg. I have amd 64 CPUs but that version wouldnt install on my Ubuntu distro.

PS >> I do not imagine there to be any alternatives to program in object oriented windows type language, however, you might want to check out KDevelop.

Run into any problems let us know:)

He's right.
The version in the repositories is the OSS (open source) version, and it doesn't have a bunch of useful features like USB support.

There are a lot of IDEs for linux, but the right one depends on the language you want to use...
