Here are my notes if anyone is interested. Currently not working.

So, install SA via WINE (1.3.37 is being used for this tutorial, legacy ATI drivers, Linux Mint 13 (Ubuntu 12.04))

(Tried using 1.4 and 1.5.26, no good. Decided on 1.3.37 so i could easily change pixel and vertex settings)

Download the following fonts and put them in the C:\Windows\Fonts folder of your wine "bottle": tahoma, tahomabd, and verdana. Or, download this: http://depositfiles.com/files/2o1s1mfp6 which has all three in one zip.

Install MTA. Don't run it.

Use winecfg and go to the Graphics tab. Set NONE for vertex shading and DISABLED for pixel shading.

Enter this command at the command line: echo 0|sudo tee /proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_scope (Reference: http://forum.mtasa.com/viewtopic.php?f=15&p=432279)

Starting MTA: OK Getting Server List: OK Joining Game: Once connected, entire system locks up except for the mouse. If this happens, hold down ALT+SYSRQ and press the following keys one at a time: R,E,I,S,U,B)
