Hey Ok here is what I did.
Got the dosemu binaries of the webpage, and installed them in my home dir under /dos the way it setups up by default (I think) it uses (in my case) ~/dos/dosemu/freedos as the root dos dir. so I made a tmp dir, copyied the XCom install files to the tmp dir ran then installer and let it install in the default dir ran the setup...doesn't seen to matter about sound on or off doesn't seem to work anyway. then under X run xdosemu from ~/dos/dosemu the game starts but there is a problem with the mouse, I'm not sure if the game is running to fast or too slow, it doesn't seem to capture the mouse events correctly so what I have to do is click while the mouse is moving over the button, so the game starts, but is useless to play in this state with the mouse. I hope this helps and isn't to long winded.
