I just followed your howto on Lucid Lynx (Ubuntu 10.04 on x86_64) with the PDFXChange 2.0 installer and wine1.2. Works like charm. Thanks for writing this up!

Yes I'm using it under Ubuntu with the Nautilus file browser. I right-click on some PDF, select "Open with > Open with other application..." and I browse to select the .sh file (I called it "openpdf.sh", but whatever suits you). I don't think it'll make a difference, but I placed it in my home directory (just make sure you have proper execution rights on the file). On the other hand, I haven't been able to get the script working under PCMan File Manager, which I use nowadays. What I do is I launch the PDF viewer (from the Wine menu, say) and then select the file in "File > Open". But it's less convenient... Hope this helps, somehow. Hi “Geek”.
