Not likely, unless I rewrite the whole thing (I did it in Visual Basic because, well, I've been using BASIC since before I can remember so that was the quickest and easiest way to do it. That turned out to be a pretty bad idea once I found out that the geniuses at Microsoft removed the ability to have transparent controls after VB6, hence the square notes rather than the circular ones jubeat uses by default, and the white strips on the judgements)

I'm not extremely well-versed with WINE (I usually use Parallels or just boot into Windows on my Mac) but if it supports the Windows Media Player DLL (to play music) and .NET then it should work.

Let me know if the only problem is you need a lower .NET version, I believe Visual Basic can compile projects for older .NET versions

Looks like it can, I'll look into it (probably not in the next release though)
