cd /where/you/saved/Cedega/
sudo dpkg -i XXXXXXXXXXXX.deb
Where XXXXX is the name of the package. Remember to grab the .deb of Cedega. Also that Linux is Case sentitive.

That's exactly what I did yesterday evening, but no luck. The install process didn't complete.

I was under the impression that if you PAID for cedega, you got tech support for 3 months. If this is the case, why are you asking here?
On the other hand, there used to be a requirement to add a package - The output from the dpkg -i command will tell you what's missing.

All right, maybe I was too harsh, but hey during almost 1 year I just wasted my money.
I uninstalled Cedega then reinstalled again and guess what: For the 1st time in my life I have a windows game ( Colin McRae rally 2 ) running decently on Cedega
Just a slight glitch when assigning the controller buttons , but the graphics are smooth and the sound is good.
I have to admit now that Cedega came a long way with their version 5.0
Now I consider that Cedaga is worth it's monthly $ 5 and I won,t feel ripped-off anymore.
