Windows is to Linux as Intel is to AMD.
Complete your rebirth and make the switch.

In Savage, you have to turn off "Extra Optimisations", that will stop corruption and crashes.

On the downside, that make the performance crap.

Thanks for that, works 100%, even better than under windoze. I now have another problem though, As soon as i enter a game all that I can do is spin around and around and around and around and around and around, and on i go, still moving forwards or backwards but spinning around......any clue?.

Yep.

Edit savage.sh, so it looks something like this:

#!/bin/sh
# Needed to make symlinks/shortcuts work.
# the binaries must run with correct working directory
cd /home/tom/games/Savage_Demo
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=libs:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH SDL_VIDEO_X11_DGAMOUSE=0 SDL_MOUSE_RELATIVE=0 LD_LIBRARY_PATH=libs:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH ./savage.bin /home/tom/games/Savage_Demo
exit 0

Replace /home/tom/games with the path to your savage install obviously
