I managed to get Photoshop CS6 installed on Lutris, using the script on their site. The problem is however, that whenever I open a file (doesn’t matter if it is jpg, png, psd, etc.) the screen remains black. I can see the picture in the Layer thumbnail, but not in the main work-area. Does anyone know what the problem might be? (Also, sorry if this is the wrong place to ask).

    You might like to look here, https://github.com/LinSoftWin/Photoshop-CC2022-Linux

    No idea if it works, but I installed something similar a few years back, and it worked (might have been CS6 at that). Searching Photoshop linux github has a few hits. There’s also a project for GIMP to skin the interface to look like Ps, I just sucked it up and learned GIMP…

      Thanks. I will probably end up keep using gimp and krita.

        I also struggled to get photoshop up and running on my linux machine, I was even going for cs6 too funnily enough. Purely out of exasperation I ended up trying photogimp, and I haven’t looked back since.

        I think the look they’re going for is like, current gen photoshop essentials? I don’t really care, it’s close enough to cs6 that it doesn’t feel like I’ve had to relearn anything.
