This method is not that hard but requires -some- knowledge.

What you will need:
Internet, a Linux with installed VGA drivers, a private server with gameguard check disabled (like RaidFight), Patience.

1. Install Lineage 2 Gracia: Part 2, update client.
2. Get patched system: http://www.raidfight.com/files/linux/Linux_Gracia_Part_2.tar.gz
3. Remove/backup old system and use the one provided above.
4. Get Tahoma font, and place it inside ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/fonts – without it you will see no text in game: http://www.raidfight.com/files/linux/tahoma.ttf.tar.gz
5. Install Wine. I used wine from Ubuntu repositories working perfect. Try the one from Ubuntu repositories and if doesn’t work use the one from Official Wine Website: http://www.winehq.org/site/download
6. Setup Wine, run winecfg and set compatibility mode to Windows XP (not always necessary).
7. Open /etc/hosts as root. Enter this: 89.149.255.12 L2authd.lineage2.com
8. Run Game

   Very good! It really works.

   What patches have you applied to system dir to create this: Get patched system: http://www.raidfight.com/files/linux/Linux_Gracia_Part_2.tar.gz ?

   You don’t need DirectX on Wine.
   It works on retail for me, but they know you use a «hacked» system which is illegal so I can’t guarantee anything.
