Playable under WineX 3.2 but with some visual glitches e.g. unreadable text. Sound is now fully working.
Installation notes:
I copied the Origin System directory from the Windows partition to the WineX drive directory and changed the movie path in Options.ini

Fully playable with the optimize Options.ini (below) under WineX 3.3. Bad visual glitches with Cedega 4.0

Cedega 4.2 fixed the visual glitches in U9. Seems to work quite stable.
