				 Re: About "Lindows" and Space Empires IV... 
 I've not used either myself.  I typically stick to Windows, Unix, or AIX depending on what I'm working on.  
 I believe Lindows in a Linux equivalent to Windows.  This gives the easy functionality of windows in a cleaner, more reliable Linux environment.  Windows really is a bloated memory hog with REALLY poor security.
 
 I'd check the game requirements from Shrapnel.  If they don't support it, then you are probably out of luck.
