Which version of UT Josh? UT2004 has a Linux installer on the DVD - it is a shell script which will install the game for youand UT2003 also includes a Linux installer. Earlier versions are catered for either by installing via Wine or, better still, using the Icculus scripts which are obtained from his web site at icculus.org. Those scripts need Wine, but tweak the settings per game for you. Very nice and straightforward. I play the original UT quite often (I find it more fun than the later versions) but occasionally play 2004. Incidentally, Icculus also wrote the installers used on the official UT2003/4 Linux installs and wrote the installers which the now defunct Loki Games used.
