Running a .desktop file from anything else than a launcher or a filemanager doesn't work, even if called via xdg-open (bug)
Create a python file and call it, passing any .desktop file path.

* Fix font-family:Times showing as Nimbus No9 on Linux | |
* | |
* Example (debugging): http://jsfiddle.net/2GzvY/3/embedded/result/ | |
* | |
* Problem: Specifying "Times" and not "Times New Roman" in your css will render with the Nimbus No9 font. | |
* Solution: Force the browser to select "Times New Roman" with @font-face rules. | |
* Dependencies: msttcorefonts installed | |

I had some problems installing this game, and after searching for any solutions out there I found that I wasn't alone. I was surprised to find that it does install pretty easily, and runs bloody well. I compared the performance with the open sourced version of Jedi Outcast, and considering that Jedi Academy is a bit more resource heavy, it's close to native speeds.
So, the problem I noticed many had, is the installer, because there are 2 CDs, and switching cds in Wine is always a problem, especially when you're mounting them as iso's. Beware that this solution requires you to use a "NoCd" exe, but since you own the original game you have nothing to worry about. Follow these steps:
