The only possible hoop you might run into is if your running a 64 bit system. The installer on the disk requires some 32 bit runtime libraries (libXi, libXext, libX11, libXau, libxcb, libXdmcp) so you either need to install them or copy the game files over manually. The game itself do not need the 32 bit libraries to run.
It shouldn't be a problem on Ubuntu AFAIK.
On 64 bit Debian/Ubuntu the ia32-libs package has the aforementioned runtime libraries required for the installer to work.
Ah, thanks. Didn't knew that. Properly because the first thing I do on an Ubuntu 64-bit installation is running the meta package that setup flash, java ia32-libs etc.
I just ldd the dom3 binary for info.
