i recently had some time on my hands and i haven't played the way in a while, so i installed the way on my laptop to start fresh. My laptop is a linux system (mint linux, cause i'm lazy; fluxbox desktop, cause my laptop's old).
if you are like me (setup a dual boot system just for the purpose of running the way) this is very good news. the way runs very well in the newest version of wine.
only a few hiccups with the sound... but that maybe because of my ancient laptop...
