Awesome! Great troubleshooting skills. That is the way I handle most game. Some require different libraries, clients or graphics settings. As long as its Direct X 9 compatible, it should run. How does it run on your video card? Enjoy!

I'm still consulting with the admins about this. I'll definitely get back to you

Wow, I had no idea you were running 32-bit hardware. Your lspci didn't show 32-bit CPU What Intel CPU are you using?

GOG is GREAT! Almost every single game I have purchased there runs in Wine. Even newer games like Darksiders, Risen 2 and Alan Wake series. Daerandin and I have done a lot of PlayOnLinux guides for GOG games and a few Steam games. You can always search Google: alan wake linux guide Our Guides...

Geesh, what a pain, I would just remove the Chrome PPA

Thanks

I'm honestly not sure at this point. My Mint 17 is based on Ubuntu 14 and I've updated on a regular basis and even upgraded to 17.2 and 17.3 I've never had problems with updates. Try rebooting, or installing them one at a time

What?? Then time to yank a video card from their systems. :D Seriously, if you have a spare $100.00 you can get a decent GeForce card and Linux gaming will be a LOT happier. I just purchased a GeForce 750 Ti for about $120.00 and it came with a $20.00 rebate This card doesn't require a power...

Not that I remember. IE was only necessary for some MMO's or Online multi-player games because the launcher was HTML based. Are you installing the GOG Far Cry or Retail (boxed) version?

Wow! You broke 3 ribs trying to get your USB drive? You are dedicated! I would have probably just yanked it by the power cord or USB cord instead of climbing over the dresser.

You may want to try the Disk Utility and scan for errors. It may not be the hard drive at all. Your old drive may still work. There could be something wrong with your laptop controller or Memory. Also, allowing Ubuntu to sleep could cause some disk read errors What laptop do you have again?
