My Dad has installed Ubuntu 7.10 with WINE and then installed Scratch.
Works like a dream :-)
Thanks Dad.
It's all free software.

Is it possible to run scratch using linux other then wine, or do you have to have windows?
If not is it possible to upload from the website?

I can run Scratch in a limited fashion (no audio or video effects) by installing squeak, and running the scratch image!
Here are the step-by-step instructions for Ubuntu, probably works the same on any Debian derivative:
sudo aptitude install squeak wget unzip
wget http://scratch.mit.edu/files/WinScratch.zip
unzip WinScratch.zip
squeak Scratch/Scratch.image
Enjoy!
(Don't forget to go back with a browser and fill out the survey form on the download page)

What version of Wine were you using? I'm using 0.9.25 on an EEE PC. I can run Scratch, but the cursor stays stuck in the center. I have to Alt-F4 to close it.
Thanks for any help.
