I've tried to run it with different settings (cycles, core), but i remains to fast. Strangely enough, you can play the game at normal speed in Windows Xp, but without the soundblaster, and my primary desktop is a LInux machine.

Other games i've tried works as expected (Kings Quest 1-3, Street Rod 1-2).

What might be wrong? Is it my configuration? I'll attach it so you can view it and tell if something is wrong. Thanks!

try a cvs build.
There have been some fixes to the timer part of DOSbox.
(see the development forum on where to get them)

Theres a way to set speed in-game.....either by +/- or the f-keys I don't remember. Cycles don't seem to affect the timting nor speed of this game though. Try Qbix advice using AEP's CVS build. Oddly enough though for me 0.65 runs it just fine (using the Jetpack version released as freeware)
