What works

Everything i tested worked perfectly out of the box.

* Starting a new game in Science mode
* Game settings
* VAB and SPH
* Launching a rocket in a sub-orbital trajectory and landing
* EVA
* Unlocking parts with science points

What does not

My computer froze when i changed from windowed to fullscreen, but I think I'm just impatient and this is unrelated to Wine. Anyway, after a restart I could get fullscreen working.

Additional Comments

Got tired with all the flaws in the Linux version and gave Wine a try. Was not dissapointed :) Used a 64 bits PREFIX, installed Steam and then KSP.

Crashes.

There are 2 times it crashes mainly, when going to/leaving the launchpad/runway, and when you try and look around the cockpit(I didn't realize that until after I submitted the test report).

I found a workaround for the cockpit in a thread here, as it was having the same error : forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=79859

Basically you need to download the 32 bit versions of libx11-6 and libxi6, open them with archive manager and move the libXi.so.6.1.0, and libX11.so.6.3.0 files to /usr/lib32.

I am working on the crashes with the hangars/;aunchpad.

Sadly I was mistaken, it worked for a few minutes, not It keeps crashing like before. I cannot look around in the cockpit and switching to/from the runway from the hangar crashes. IDK, i have had half my memory go bad about a week ago, I have new memory in the mail as we speak so I will fiddle with it then.

Ok, the cockpit fix I posted DOES work, something I had done after that caused it to no longer work, but I re did it and it works again, now to fix the main crash,

The crashes I was having switching to/from the hangars/runway/launchpad were due to me not having enough memory, as I only had 1 gig. Minimum you should have is 2, recommended is 3-4, especially if you are going to install mods.
