    DSO is not a cross platform game, essentially, it is neither browser nor java game. It is Win API application that depends on Win API libraries and environment. The only Linux option would be to simulate that with Wine. But the process of getting it working under Wine isn't that simple and straight forward, you might run into versioning issues with various libraries, so prepare some extra patience and pick a longer day for that activity.

    I've tried that once and no success but my knowledge on Linux isn't that great... If you manage to get it working, please share with us.

    Read Trakilaki post. Just remember your running qt5 and it works on Mac and windows. That is why there is a thinclient for mac. Qt5 is the program that you want to focus on for the setup. So if QT5 ever changes then you will have to change your wine with their provided file for that. The Wine project does update qt5 setting from time to time so just keep an eye for the new settings on their website.
