I was using Protoshares-qt on Windows so I have a wallet, but my Windows machine crashed. :'( Fortunately I backed up the wallet file. ;D
I have a Linux (Ubuntu) box and I'm running Ptsminer on it with my wallet address, but I have no way of accessing my PTS or even checking my balance. Are there any PTS wallet applications available for Linux? I've been looking around and I can't find anything.
I've even tried running Protoshares-qt under Wine on the Linux box, it runs but it can't find a block source so I'm assuming that it just doesn't work under Wine.

That first link seems to be talking about building something called Bitcoin-qt. Will that work for Protoshares?

The thread from your second link was a huge help. I successfully compiled it, it successfully connected, and it's now in the process of synchronizing (it's a few weeks behind). Thank you!

I am glad it worked for you too ;)

The Windows version of Protoshares-qt runs outstandingly good under Linux with the latest version of Wine.
