Working good in CXG 8.1.4/9.0 and linux -- GOG.com version

The GOG release of this game, is a 219mb executable download,
which installs correctly into a new bottle using the winxp profile.

The game itself is hardcoded to 640x480 screen resolution - if
your display hardware is not capable of this native fullscreen
resolution, you will have to enable 'Emulate a virtual desktop'
using winecfg -- see tips&tricks if you need help with this.

The GOG release employs DosBox to run the actual game itself.
Defaultly, the installed game will start using using the SDL
based 'overlay' video rendering driver -- on this linux rig
with a 9400GT nvidia card/190.42 drivers, the game would start
(sound working) but have a black screen. The GOG releases that
use DosBox, come with the executable 'Graphics mode setup.exe'
which is a GUI frontend to manipulate the dosbox config file.
This does not work properly -- you have to manually edit the
config file to get the screen rendering working, by changing
the 'output' variable to 'opengl' -- see tips&tricks for more..

Cheers!
