Title: Will this run on an Asus EEE
Post by: Chief on December 09, 2007, 05:28:29 pm
Is it possibly to play this on a Linux distribution (Most likely Ubuntu) on the EEE. Here are the specs for the one I'm getting

 Processor: Intel mobile CPU (Intel 910 chipset, 900MHz Dothan Pentium M)
 Memory: 1gb RAM
Integrated Intel UMA graphics care

Im assuming not but it would make my year if it did.

It'll probably run, just very sluggishly, that is if you can get it to work on linux.  Here's (http://www.bit-blot.com/forum/index.php?topic=224.0) the linux thread, we're currently having some trouble getting it to activate in Wine, although the demo should work.

Here are the minimum requirements.  Your CPU is a little old and the graphics are quite under powered, but it's worth a shot.
1.6Ghz
256MB RAM
Mid/High-End Video Card
Latest Video Card Drivers w/ OpenGL support
Sound Card
200 Mb Free Hard Disk Space

It runs beautifully (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=2365562668503516866&hl=en) in XP on my 701 4G Eee PC, with the RAM upgraded to 2GB - and it'd run better if you overclocked (or, given the CPU is underclocked, uh... clocked) the CPU. I assume that the Linux version will work just as well!

Nice! That's really cool to see. :)

It also runs on the Windows XP/1GB RAM version of the Acer Aspire One. The framerate is slightly reduced, but it looks every bit as gorgeous as it should and I didn't experience any real problems.
