I also have been struggling to get it to run, with the same problems as mentioned. I am also running Linux. I will come back in a few hours and see if you have found a workaround, but need to sleep now. Go well.

I don't think it will run in linux or wine for now, or even remote desktop. The javascripts and the way it is using graphics etc. does not seem to work yet. I think if I eliminated the light plugin and a few other things it'd work, but then the visual appeal would be reduced significantly. In a next game I will consider these posts when trying to make it more linux compatible. Thanks for commenting
