Hello Caddish,
While it is probably possible to get C9, the game, to work in Ubuntu with the
proper config for WINE, the issue you are running into is with GameGuard.
GameGuard is the games security layer, that many games have been using to
protect from hacking and other security issues. At this time I do not believe
that any game running GameGuard can run in WINE because gameguard has no
workaround as of right now. There may be some more experienced users that have
figured out hacks or a workaround for the GameGuard software, or certain
configuration with WINE combined with specific install procedures (i.e. Native
install on Windows that has been copied to your WINE directory) that work.
In short, I don't believe there are any reliable solutions to games that use
GameGuard at present.
Hope someone is able to point you in a direction that helps if they have a
solution that has been tested.
Good luck,
