There are several internet posts that reference a minor "tweak" to wine (essentially changing the winecfg to windows98 ) and "Kindle for PC" supposedly works fine. I've done the the winecfg tweak on both my OpenSuse 11.2 desktop and my Ubuntu laptop with similar results.
The "Kindle for PC" program appears to install, an Icon shows up on the desktop, but when the icon is clicked - it tries to launch but crashes. --
If all you want is an eReader for your pc, look at Calibre. It can convert the various formats to whatever you like, catalog your books, and has a built in ereader. It's free and has an easy one line installer. You can find it here: http://calibre-ebook.com/download_linux.
