That's great to hear! I'm currently switching from windows to ubuntu, and I was thrilled when I discovered that Picasa is available for linux. I was very disappointed though when I discovered I couldn't upload photos to the web albums. Can't wait for this feature!

By the way, I just tried Picasa 2.7 with the new version of Wine which was released yesterday and it's oh-so-close to working. It scans my photos, has the web uploading button, but it just happens to freeze whenever I click on an image. We're getting close! :)
Good luck,

Great, I am looking for the new version with better export features. I am still using F-Spot but thinking about Picassa for Linux... It loads images very quickly and I like this feature.
I'm on kubuntu and the windows version under wine works better than the linux version, the uploading works and it also scans my folders for new pictures. But it's not native so I'm using digikam for my photo manager and picasa only when i need to upload pictures to web albums.
Like everyone else here, I love Picasa. I also have a paid subscription to picasaweb.google.com (needed the extra storage) using another account. I'm running and hp Pavilion dv9000 with the Intel Core 2 Duo. The OS is 64bit Ubuntu 7.04. Will I be able to run a 64bit version of this new release with Picasaweb on Ubuntu? Or will this just run in 32bit mode? Can't wait to run a native linux version with web upload. Thanks for all of your efforts all!

I was totally blown away when I discovered Picassa would run on Linux. I am a new convert to Linux, and still drop back to Windows occasionally, but am firmly determined I will NEVER own Vista. I eagerly await the ability to upload to Web Albums. Until it is done, I'll fall back to a Windows PC. Keep up the good work, Linux IS coming. Native would be nice, but the financial realities are that native apps are expensive and not always cost effective. I really appreciate the efforts, and WINE wins as well. Thanks.

This is a much needed feature. For photo management, we have other options in linux too, but picasaweb is the most important feature we are looking in Picasa.
What we need is a version of Picasa which includes the Web Album upload, and which runs directly on Linux distros (i e, does not require Wine) and supports both 64- and 32-bit systems. That would be the proverbial five-cent cigar !...
Is there anything else except F-Spot in linux for uploading to web album. I'm using KDE, and F-Spot requires a lot of Gnome packages to be installed I never use otherwise.
Thanks

You might want to try the Firefox add-on called Universal Firefox Uploader. It does a really nice job and lets you create folders, too. And you don't have reindex your entire drive of images before using it.
Good luck!

Mine did the same thing, but I found that if you simply do a "File -> Add File to Picasa..." and then select a picture from a watched folder (any picture works) it will kick in and scan the entire folder including all of the data from your ini files (if you have them) so I did that for all 10 of my folders and now they are working great now. I'm running on Fedora 7 w/ full blown wine-0.9.39-1.fc7.
I have yet to experience the slow issues some people report and I can upload to web albums just as fast as I could on Windows. Also, the cool thing is that in the "Help -> About" window is shows "Picasa Version 2.7 (Build 36.4000, 0) for Linux. They weren't joking when they said they were getting close, just a few more bugs to work out.

Did you really need step 5? I would have thought that steps 3 and 5 would get rid of the need for step 5. What happens if you do rpm -e msttcorefonts ? - Dan
