Yes you cna but onyl against other linux users, and you have todo it manualyl as there's no lobby.

Although you could try running it through Wine.

if u are playin using linux binarys, they have to be same binarys or u run into sync issues. tvo is working on fixing this

different versions of gcc can play eachother without issues according to tvo, and gcc -> mingw is almost done

Well atm something is messed up in svn.

Since cant play using same binarys on linux = recent enough thing.
So i wouldnt hold out hope for different gcc compiled version (with latest svn) working atm.
Cant last more than 20 mins ingame without a sync error
Why tvo have to go on holidays :/

The Win-Lobby doesn't work with Wine.

Huh? Does the Win-Lobby work for you in Wine?

It works for me as well. The game itself has slowdown/memory leak issues. But this can be fixed by setting Windows 95 emulation mode.

Only with branches/tvo3

With trunk you still need to take same measures as before.. ie. same binary.
