    Default EB with Ubuntu

    I couldn't find the real answer so i'll give it a try.

    I have been playing EB for a while now ( since 0.7) on windows XP.
    But now i'm about to install Ubuntu and i wonder if EB would still run?

    Anybody uses Ubuntu while playing EB???


    ps EB rocks!!!!

    Question is: does RTW run on Ubuntu?

    I honestly have no idea. If at all possible, you could install Ubuntu as a dual boot, so you still have XP intact just in case?

    Having problems getting EB2 to run? Try these solutions.

    Well, it might work with Wine, but not all PC games work.

    According to this thread in the Hardware/Software subforum, TW games don't work real well on Wine. Sorry.

    Why did the chicken cross the road?

    So that its subjects will view it with admiration, as a chicken which has the daring and courage to boldly cross the road,
    but also with fear, for whom among them has the strength to contend with such a paragon of avian virtue? In such a manner is the princely
    chicken's dominion maintained. ~Machiavelli

    R:TW, according to these reports, doesn't work too bad on the latest unstable (BETA) version of Ubuntu under Wine. It works less well on the older (stable) builds though and won't work at all on some other Linux variants.
