Title: Computer Geek needed
Post by: Vash on October 30, 2007, 08:14:00 PM

Let's see if this makes sense to anyone:

I own a Zune, the mp3 player made by Microsoft. My computer is currently running Ubuntu (Linux) I want to move mp3s from my computer onto my Zune, but I can't install the Windows .exe files needed for the interface, because I am running Linux.

Anybody got any ideas?

Try WINE that will allow you to create a Windows like vitural PC than you can install Windows Media player.......

Yeah, I think WINE would be my suggestion, too. If not that, isn't there a winamp-like player for Linux that could interface with the zune?

Yep, WINE was going to be my suggestion also.
