What Linux are you using? While TS4 runs on the mac, OS X is a version of BSD Linux. I believe TS4 runs on the Mac using a shell like Wine (at least that's what TS3 did). Is your computer a mac?

Would be nice to get more proprietary games on Linux but drm then drm becomes a problem as Linux is meant to be open.
