I have an Ubuntu machine in my home office and wanted to play UO on it yesterday. I have a laptop running windows but my Ubuntu machine has a nice 30 inch TV connected to it for my monitor. I was looking over the hoops and hurdles with running Wine to make this work but I went the VMWare route. You can download and use VMWare Player for free...non-commercial use. I then grabbed an old Windows XP CD (with a CD key) and made a VMWare image of the XP installation. I did all my Windows updates and installed UO and UOSteam to get it working without any fuss...
I just wanted to post this so if others run Linux...you can play UO on it this way. I have been playing this for a couple of days and it is working great.
