Spearhead in Linux a No Go

[privateink]

Ha! Thought I'd give it a try, but it didn't work as expected. Here's what I did to save you all the hassle:

+Install Spearhead on my XP machine
+Copy the entire Spearhead directory to my Linux box
+Copy the MOHAA linux binaries to the the directory (to which I called MOHSH)
+Rename the DEMOTA directory to MAIN
Took a deep breath, crossed my fingers, ran the exe and here's what I get:

At least you tried. Hopefully EA will have the Linux server out soon.

also moved to the new spearhead section.

The developer in charge of creating the Linux version said he won't be able to start work on it until after Comdex is over. It looks like we'll have to wait a bit for this :(
