I'm thinking of having a Ubuntu partition. I would love to be able to play SP without having to boot into Windows.

Has anyone figured out how to play SP in Linux?

I'm running the SP series under Wine in Mandrake 10.1. Works like a charm - except for no sound. Since I tend to turn off sound anyway - I haven't tried to fix it.

Load save and everything else is flawless.

there should be an option within Wine to enable sound.

I upgrade to Ubuntu Feisty Fawn - the game works ok but I can't see the mouse pointer. Its there for the opening options screen but disappears in the game proper.
