Just had set up a fresh system because Windows 10 went on my nerves but realized soon after that DAZ Studio won't run that simple on a Ubuntu alike variant of Linux. So I found this on the DAZ forums:

can somebody do a step guide for what to do now that we are using Postgres 12? it would help if we could get a central Guide for keeping it running. thanks and have a good day!
I still use the guide from amyaimei on deviantart with a few modifications

I am running DS 4.15.0.2 on Ubuntu 20.04 with Wine-Staging 6.4, versions 6.5. and the new 6.6 will break dforce simulation, GPU rendering still doesn't work on the newer versions. I use Blender for rendering with the Diffeomorphic plugin.
This is how it works for me, it might not work for you.
0. Use winetricks to get the followings: vcrun2005, vcrun2010, d3dx9
I never do these steps, as they get autoinstalled if needed. My first step is to install DS via DIM.
1. Install PostgreSQL
sudo apt-get install postgresql-12
2. Setup DAZ Studio Content DB.
sudo -u postgres psql CREATE ROLE dzcms LOGIN SUPERUSER INHERIT CREATEDB CREATEROLE REPLICATION; CREATE DATABASE "Content" WITH OWNER = dzcms ENCODING = 'UTF8' TABLESPACE = pg_default CONNECTION LIMIT = -1; \c Content CREATE EXTENSION citext SCHEMA public VERSION "1.4"; ALTER ROLE dzcms SET search_path = dzcontent, public; exit
3. Modify PostgreSQL configuration to allow dzcms logon without password.
sudo gedit /etc/postgresql/12/main/pg_hba.conf
Change "md5" to "trust" for both IPv4 and IPv6 local connections:
# IPv4 local connections:
host all all 127.0.0.1/32 trust
# IPv6 local connections:
host all all ::1/128 trust
4. Restart PostgreSQL.
sudo /etc/init.d/postgresql restart
5. Install DAZ Studio 4.9 by using wine as "Windows XP." It is VERY IMPORTANT, I spent days to figure out why the CMS is not working just because I installed it by using wine as "Windows 7."
AFAIK it doesn`t matter, I always install DS before Postgres using wine as Windows 7
6. Setup DAZ Studio CMS connection before starting DAZ Studio.
Create the file .wine/drive_c/users/<your_linux_user_name>/Application Data/DAZ 3D/cms/cmscfg.json with the following contents:
{
"Port" : 5432,
"ConnectionURI" : "postgresql://dzcms@localhost:5432/Content"
}
7. Start DAZ Studio, the database Content should be populated after that.
From the forums to the original tutorial from amyaimei:

Hope it works!

Spickzettel für wiederholende Windows Angelegenheiten
Entweder geht's über die Systemsteuerung mittels Verknüpfung auf "control" setzen oder diesen Befehl im "Ausführen" (Windows-Taste + R) verwenden. Dort geht's zur Region, wodurch Klick aufs Register "Administratives" oben ins nächste Register gewechselt wird. Dort lassen sich die Einstellungen auch auf die neuen Benutzer übertragen. Was noch fehlt ist ein Language Pack, ansonsten geht selbst…
