Hello.
I don't know what is your problem, but here is how I installed Buzz on Ubuntu Mate 23.4. Maybe it can help you.
---------------------------------
Install wine
Install playonlinux (https://www.playonlinux.com/) and run it
Download Buzz (x86) and install it with playonlinux

Install on a linux partition, not a windows one.
Move the microsoft fonts from C:\Windows\Font to ~/.local/share/fonts

You can use the system version of Wine (if above 5.5) in playonlinux, else choose a newer version in PlayOnLinux

Set it up as 32-bit Windows
include library dotnet40
include library msvc100
include library vcrun2015

Run Buzz under PlayOnLinux

If error :
System.Windows.Media.MediaContext.Get_CurrentMediaContext() Service d'authentification inconnu (translate in your language)
System.Windows.Media.MediaSystem.ConnectTransport()
Install : WinBind (Synaptic)
sudo pluma /etc/sysctl.d/10-ptrace.conf
kernel.yama.ptrace_scope = 0

If the fonts are unreadable in Buzz : change (Settings) WPFIdealFontMetrics = false

That's have done it for me. It works fine.

Hope it can help.

It may be that the installation of DotNet didn't work fine.
I remember that I had several problem before dotnet was OK.

[Slumber]

It was Dtnet40 ! Working fine now

Thank you, chahur .

[chahur]

Nice to see more Buzz linux users !

[HerrFornit]

After 20 years of develpement the Linux kernel 6.12 has become "real-time-processing" capable now !?

So I wonder how it worked before

It may be that the installation of DotNet didn't work fine.

It seems I cant install dotnet in play on linux. Do you have any tips on how to get it to install?

Hello
I use a PlayOnLinux environment.
After creating the Buzz virtual drive and installing Buzz, open the configuration (in PlayOnLinux) and go to Install Components. Install DotNet4 from here.
If something goes wrong, PlayOnLinux sometime hides the error messages, it's not always easy to know what's going on.
You can try to run directly the install program of dotnet (download it before from any place, maybe Microsoft), using the last tab ("divers" in french) and "Run an .exe in this virtual drive".
You can also use the one from PlayOnLinux (in $HOME/.PlayOnLinux/ressources), you'll probably get the same problem, but you will see what happens.
Hope this can help.

Thanks, will give it a try if I find the time.
