Additional Comments

run good video - sound and mouse without problems but not fully playable but not works all game modes and characters Tested on: Wine 1.3.21, Wine Ver Default XP, Wine Sound Acceleration on Emulation (I always use sound acceleration in emulation for all apps for default for compatiblity reasons), CDEmu for drive installs (Daemon Tools on Linux), Athlon II X2 250 3.0Ghz, 2gb ddr2 800, Zotac Geforce 210 512MB DDR2 , Nvidia 270.41, Ubuntu Natty 11.04 64bit

For some distros there is a max opened files limit that is too small for this game - Debian is one of such distros for example. This will prevent you from starting a race because keyboard will go dead. To fix this you need to increase max opened file limit. For Debian - simply put something like this in /etc/security/limits.conf:

USERNAME hard nofile 655355

(of course, change USERNAME to your user name ;] )

and re-log - this should allow you to play this game just fine.

This "bug" also affects Sonic Heroes.

NOTE: This is NOT wine bug - this is simply a security measure in some distributions.
