Yesterday we released Soviet Unterzoegersdorf Sector II.
Today we get feedback about the Linux version - it was made with the help of Codeweavers / Wine by the way. Unfortunately I am no Linux wizard - I learned to code AGS scripts, but I hope that the AGS community can help with this tricky question:

Starting the linux version the game engine complains about a missing DIGMID patch on several Linux distributions and versions. This site
http://alleg.sourceforge.net/digmid.html
tells me that this could be a problem of Midi support. I wonder why, because I don't use any Midi in the game at all - and I found no switch where to switch off Midi support. Maybe the Sound and Music support derived from a very early Midi support and is somehow woven into?

Any help appreciated.

Soviet Unterzoegersdorf (pronounced
«oon-taa-tsee-gars-doorf») is the last existing
client republic of the USSR. The soviet enclave
maintains no diplomatic relationship with the
surrounding so-called "Republic of Austria" or
with the capitalist fortress "European Union".
The downfall of the people's motherland -- the
Soviet Union -- in the early 1990s had a
devastating effect on the country’s
intra-economic situation. External reactionary
forces threatened the last remaining proletarian paradise.
Party secretary Wladislav Gomulka has been
kidnapped and is being held in
US-Oberzoegersdorf. We must save comrade Gomulka!
Because communism isn't an opinion. It's a promise.

A few words on the plot

Those who played Sector I of the trilogy already know the sad story of party secretary Gomulka, who was instructed by the Supreme Soviet of Unterzoegersdorf to send the people of US-Oberzoegersdorf a clear message of discontent! But he got captured when he tried to burn the American flag on the Tumulus hill. Sector II is the story of his rescue. Commissar Nikita Perostek Chrusov is a professional. He knows what needs to be done.
