EB with Ubuntu

[Omanes Alexandrapolites]

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.

You could try it with Cedega, but the problem is you will be using a lot of RAM on top of what you are already using just for EB.

Then again, I don't like Cedega as a product because they aren't really playing by the GNU rules.

I know the deal here; I'm on a Debian/Win XP dual boot on my laptop, and on a triple boot Debian/Solaris/Win XP in my workstation at home, and while emulators might work (It depends on; WINE is really horrid for most of the time, you might want to try VNC or something else, but I wouldn't count on it). It's pretty much the only reasonable solution, lest you want to buy another HDD.

Wine works well for quite a number of games, but unfortunately RTW isn't one of them. I wouldn't even think of trying EB on wine, it's already slow enough as it is. (and it's also one of the few reasons making me keep that windows partition).
