All - I can't run Book II under Ubuntu 10.04, 32 bit. When I run from the command line, all I get is "Segmentation Fault". Any ideas how to troubleshoot and fix this?

Oh, I should add that the seg fault occurs after I enter my registration code, and click to begin the game on the main menu. Thanks!

Update: When I choose windowed mode, it works. I'm only a dual monitor system, so it's apparently something to related to that. I actually prefer windowed mode, so it works well for me. Something to keep in mind for others nonetheless.

Ah yes! I haven't run dual monitors on my Ubuntu workstation for a while, but when I did, the game would crash. This has been reported to the BliztMax people.

fyi
I'm running the game fullscreen in a dual monitor setup - but with seperate X-servers for every monitor. The game runs smoothly (but only on the first monitor).

This happens to me with every game in fullscreen mode with fixed resolution with Nvidia drivers and twinview setup. This must be something odd with the Nvidia implementation of libGL...
