Deus Ex: Linux Style


I have a question for Linux folks.

I am preparing an Ubuntu dual-boot as soon as I can get a D-Link driver. But I was wondering what this file was:
http://download.dxalpha.com/DX1/linux/dxls0.3.tar

I thought it might have been a Deus Ex driver for Linux, but it doesn't look like it seeing it is only 10 Kb.

For those who don't know, Deus Ex is a game released in 2000, and remains the best game ever.

It's not a driver but an installer

Deus ex is the best game ever, even now its still the best game ive ever played! the sequel wasnt very good and that other game they made of similar story, they concentrated on graphics too much, but the original had a really immersing storyline with so many different ways to do everything!

I never knew there was a linux installer, i think i picked up a copy of the game for about £2 a while ago, so ill see if I can get it working
