When I use Ubuntu 14.04 there was a memory leak issue in the proprietary driver.

X.Org was experiencing RAM overflow until it lock the system.

This is not a game. This is a installer only. I don't own the Loki Soldier of Fortune disc.

That literally is Loki's port of the game. All Loki did was the installer.

You get the Windows version, and you use the Loki installer to install it for Linux.
