ALso I found this http://www.segaarcade.com/pdfs/initiald4/id4-manual.pdf This means the game is just DVD. If that is the case then if I get my hands on that dvd along with Montvista Linux, should I be able to load the game? Also I wonder if it is possible to get the logitech G25 to work instead of its hardware. Has anyone ever tried this? Night |

As we're talking about an expensive hardware machine here, I'm pretty sure there's some kind of combined hardware + software protection as well. Either some kind of unique hardware code that each software disc is tethered to, or some kind of USB dongle key. I also doubt that there are Linux drivers for the Logitech G25. But by all means, if you pull it off, let us know. And why is this in the ID5 section? |
