[cod] Cod client for linux?

[Boco]

Installing the game is the hardest part on Linux.  Wine doesn't do the 
installer well.  When I installed CoD on Linux, I used a script I found 
online to install it.  You might want to search Google for something 
like "call of duty linux install script", or something like that.  Then, 
once you get it installed, you will have to reduce the sound buffers to 
get the sounds in sync.  Trial and error is needed for that part.  I got 
CoD to play in Linux at a constant 50 frames/second in Wine, so it is 
possible.
