Hello, tried to play this over the weekend but I get freezes.

Distro: Linux Mint Petra 3.11.0-12-generic #19-Ubuntu SMP Wed Oct 9 16:12:00 UTC 2013 i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux
Software: Wine all tested versions(1.4-1.7)
Desktop: Cinnamon
Errors: It happens when I try to enter a town in a Campaign or when trying to save te game, clicking the save button. The only way to exit the game is ctrl alt backspace.
The HD mod works, as far as I can tell, but I'm trying to play WOG(Era 2) so besides the fact that HD is not fully supported, it also freezes when I try to select a Single Scenario(HD or not).

Computer configuration:Dell Inspiron 6400, 1.6ghz, 1gb ram, [AMD/ATI] RV515/M54 [Mobility Radeon X1400] 256mb.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Most likely a video driver crash.

Thanks for the quick reply.
The thing is that I can play other (even newer) games without crashes...
Anyway, if that's the case, do you have any recommandation for what driver to use? I have the default driver that comes with Mint. I remember that I've tried to install a radeon driver in the past but I couldn't find anything official that supports that card.

Also, when I try to play WoG(with or without the HD mod) I can Alt+F4 it and everything goes well. When the original crashes I have to restart X.
