Playing UO on Linux-Ubuntu

I couldn't post this in the guides section, so hopefully a mod moves it :D

{This guide covers all possibilities and is completely noob friendly}
{You must do all of this in order from Part I-III}



  • [*]Part I - Installing Wine
    [*]Part II - Winetricks and .Net Framework
    [*]Part III - Razor

[size=+2]Ubuntu is the most popular os distribution of linux. This guide will show you how to install .Net framework, Razor and Wine/Wine tricks in Ubuntu.[/size]

[size=+1]Part I[/size]

Wine is a translation layer (a program loader) capable of running Windows applications on Linux and other POSIX compatible operating systems, basically we need this to run razor and .net framework.

First, open a terminal window (Applications->Accessories->Terminal). Then add the repository's key to your system's list of trusted APT keys by copy and pasting the following into your terminal:

Code:
wget -q http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/387EE263.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -

Next, add the repository to your system's list of APT sources:
[size=+1]For Ubuntu Jaunty (9.04):[/size]
Code:
sudo wget http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/sources.list.d/jaunty.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list
[size=+1]For Ubuntu Intrepid (8.10):[/size]
Code:
sudo wget http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/sources.list.d/intrepid.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list
[size=+1]For Ubuntu Hardy (8.04):[/size]
Code:
sudo wget http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/sources.list.d/hardy.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/winehq.list
Then update APT's package information by typing this into the terminal:
Code:
sudo apt-get update
You can now install Wine normally or by typing this into the terminal:
Code:
sudo apt-get install wine

[size=+1]Part II [/size]

You now will install winetricks via typing this into your terminal:
Code:
wget http://www.kegel.com/wine/winetricks

To install .net and fontfix now punch this into the terminal:
Code:
sh winetricks dotnet20
sh winetricks fontfix

[size=+1]Part III - Razor[/size]

Punch this code into the terminal to get the latest razor:
Code:
wget -c http://www.runuo.com/razor/Razor_Latest.exe

Now just install razor through wine, start up and everything should be smooth.
