You may want to VirtualBox. i am also Kubuntu 8.1 and running the latest AGS beta in virtual box an i am quite pleased with the results. I setup it up for seamless integration and so I can run Linux and windows programs simultaneously on the same desktop, the same as if there were only one OS.
There are only a couple of minor issues outstanding:
1. AGS allows you to edit game files residing on a networked mapped drive but won't allow you to do any compile type operations. It seems that .NET returns a "no more files" error and AGS responds by aborting the command that caused it. It's been determined that this error can be correctly identified and safely ignored and so it's possible a future AGS version will address this.
2. The AGSEditor Run command can only be used in "Force to Window" mode. It kind of makes sense that a virtual machine isn't allowed to change screen resolutions. Anyway the 2x and 3x filters work so if you have a big resolution screen you can blow-up the test window to usable size. So I think this is not a peoblem.
2. Moving the test window sometimes causes a screen problem. Specifically if you move it past the top of the screen the part that goes off screen turns up at the bottom of the screen along with a lot of blacked out or un-updated rectangular areas. I suspect this is some kind of virtual box error. There is newer version available but I don't want to install Vbiox, windows, and everything again.
AGS V3.1 is well worth the trouble of upgrading and insytalling Virtualbox. Goo luck.
