Yes! I read an e-book on my Linux computer \o/
 
  
I did this on 2013-10-25 with SUSE Linux 12.2:
 
 
* go to http://www.amazon.com and get some free e-books.
 
* downloaded their [http://www.amazon.de/gp/feature.html/ref=kcp_w7_ln_ar?docId=1000487353 Kindle reader for Windows]
 
* delete the old version of the Windows Emulator [[wine]] from my computer. To do this, [[open a console]] and type
 
rpm -e wine wine-32bit wine-mp3
 
* I knew that I have a 64bit computer. If you do not know, [[find out if your system is 64bit or 32bit]]
 
* download wine 1.7.4 and wine-32bit 1.7.4 for SUSE Linux from http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Emulators:/Wine/openSUSE_12.2/x86_64/
 
* and wine-gecko from http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Emulators:/Wine/openSUSE_12.2/noarch/
 
* Then install it:
 
rpm -ivh wine-1.7.4-290.1.x86_64.rpm wine-gecko-2.24-43.1.noarch.rpm wine-32bit-1.7.4-290.1.x86_64.rpm
 
* Now you start the reader's installation:
 
wine Downloads/KindleForPC-installer.exe
 
* And start the reader:
 
cd .wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Amazon/Kindle
 
wine Kindle.exe
