Cedega is Wine. However Cedega has been heavily tweaked and optimized for games, and has many things that regular Wine doesn't have to make running games easier.

All the Unreal Tournaments have linux installers - you don't need wine to run them.

Put your cd in, mount cd drive and run this file: http://www.unrealize.co.uk/files/unr...guage.goty.run


PS: Let me know how the install works because I have 2 versions of the installer but I will only put one on my site for space reasons.
