Bridge will start up and work properly if the file 'install.adb' is present in
'Program Files/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop CS2' This file is an XML file containing
Photoshop serial number information, install dates etc. and seems to be what
Bridge is looking for to determine whether there is another CS2 application
installed. The Wine installer does not create/install this file, but it can be
copied across from a Windows installation if one is available.

Once this is done, Bridge works flawlessly. It's a pity this problem cannot be
rectified as Bridge adds so much functionality to Photoshop - to me Bridge is a
vital component of Photoshop.

In Windows, Bridge itself has an install.adb file in its program directory (as
I suspect does every other CS2 application) and this also does not get created
by Wine; however, this seems to be of no consequence here, but may cause
problems elsewhere perhaps?
