msater Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 Hi, I´m new here. Please don´t shout at me. Does FM09 work on Ubuntu? I would really like to play it, but because I´m on Ubuntu, I´m scared of buying the game then not being able to play. Can anyone help? Thanks, msater Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildhagen Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 You need Windows (XP or Vista) or a Mac to play. See the system requirements of the game. So if you want to play it, you can install Windows in dualboot (or remove Ubuntu entirely, of course ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wildhagen Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 Well, maybe you could try an emulator like Wine or something, but I doubt it will work fluenty, if it works at all. Or you could use something like Xen, Vmware workstation etc, with a Windows-guest, but I doubt it would perform very well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoulpain Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 1. Wine Is Not an Emulator 2. The game installs fine but when you start it with WINE you get black screen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike7077 Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Every time I see mention of Ubuntu it puts me in mind of some awesome Congolese regen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
