I got it installed and running past the license manager issues, albeit there are more issues...
Here is what I did:
1. Double-clicked TableauPublicDesktop.msi, ran the installation through until there was an error
2. Opened a wine command prompt and issued:
sc.exe qc tablicsrv
sc.exe qc "flexnet licensing service"
sc.exe sdshow "flexnet licensing service"
(As hinted on http://www.tableausoftware.com/forum/unable-start-service-%2526%2523039;tablicsrv%2526%2523039;)
3. The commands above did not generate any output, but when I launched the installer again and pressed Install, it went past the installation point and launched the software.
Splash screen comes up but the program hangs with lots of "wineserver: file_set_error() can't map error: Operation not supported" in the wine error log.
Potentially, someone can make it work better from here? I have to study for 3 more exams so I do not have the time to file a proper bug report. Good luck!
