I run a windows 2000 with Virtualbox on the same laptop so i just installed it there and all works fine and dandy.

Other then facegen I had no problems in Linux with the game however.
I'm using troubleshooting mode 1, and it works for me. What kind of video card does your laptop have? If's it's an ATI card, that could be the issue - form what I've seen ATI cards tend to be a little flakier on Linux than Nvidia ones.

I see that Ubuntu is suggesting that I install Wine 1.0, though... I think I'm going to, as I've never had any problems running OOTP.
I'm actually using Wine 1.1.1 now, you can get a .deb file direct from the Wine folks. I'm not using any DLL overrides, either.
