How can I save the game? And how can I use the off-hands weapons?

Me too, I'm on 12.04. I've not tried 12.10 yet. Maybe I will try it but I registered here on Desurium to play flare and after the 100megabyte(FLARE) download it didn't start. Now I'm getting it as a simple 'linux download'. Will be fun...though I had hoped it would be on Desurium. Btw thx to makson96 I got desurium through an Ubuntu ppa.

An extra little update. I successfully compiled v017_1 and am now playing it(still on 12.04). I wish it worked here on Desurium.
