P99 on Linux Mint

[Trude]

I used to play p99 on a windows desktop but have been away for years. I'm trying to get back into Norrath, but the only computer I have is a laptop running Linux mint. I'm not at all familiar with Linux and don't know where to start. I know there is a guide for linux users but I don't understand much of the technical jargon and again....i'm not familiar enough with linux to get it working...I'm becoming discouraged.

Help?
