it is java based ..I don't see the need to use qemu or linux emul...

1) the linux tar ball seems to  work as is for command line  (wualacmd)

2) for the gui version, it complains about not finding a specific version of swt-gtk :

$ ./wuala
Wuala Loader 2008-09-18

I added -classpath /usr/local/share/java/classes to  the java call in ./wuala to not avail... I suspect it is an easy fix for someone with more expertise on java than /me.

FWIW, the linux tarball is simply a 'downloader', which creates ~/wuala . 

My brief tests were done on :
