Additional Comments
Random crashing could be driver issues with my Nvidia graphics card; many openGL apps seem to crash randomly with my pc. fixme:bitblt:X11DRV_ClientSideDIBCopy potential optimization: client-side compressed DIB copy Keeps being printed in the terminal, I do not know what it means. Good old game - glad to see it runs in wine!

The configure script didn't complain about dependencies except those needed for scanning, digital cameras and ISDN.
The installation of the game was OK, the intro movies also worked well, but when I got to the screen where I could choose what do I want to do (multiplayer / single player / tutorial / etc.) it got unreasonably slow.
Setting to low-quality didn't solve my problem.
My hardware is much more powerful, then the recommended in the readme.
I got the following messages in the terminal:
