Mozilla/Firefox browser integration done via a plugin.Camera/media detection integrated with Gnome/KDE.Sure, you can simply install the Picasa 3.9 Windows binaries and directly run it under Wine, but Picasa 3.8 will lack Linux integration (with Gnome, KDE, etc.) such as: The latest Picasa version - 3.8 - is not that easy to install so I though I'd post about installing Picasa 3.8 under Ubuntu with simple copy/paste commands (except one step in which you'll have to install something visually). So why not downgrade to the version you love. I create symlinks so that same folders work on all platforms. Also, Picasa 3.8 comes with a Batch Upload new feature as well as the ability to edit images in Picnik (online image editor) and Face Movie (unfortunately Face Movie doesn't work in Linux but you can create movies from your photos in Linux using PhotoFilmStrip). provides free software downloads for old versions of programs, drivers and games. This version of Picasa 3.0 can load newer 3.9 databases if you rename '.picasa.ini' to 'Picasa.ini' (the Windows filename). But Picasa for Linux is really old - 3.0 - while starting with version 3.6, Picasa has a really interesting feature: face recognition and that might be very valuable to some. It seems a lot of people are using Picasa under Ubuntu (which is a bit of surprise to me - I would have though people prefere gThumb or digiKam).
