I don't think that currently there is a way to run COD4 on linux
I might be wrong though

Heh, sorry about that. Looks like Call Of Duty 4 works too, though:

I'd still recommend keeping Vista in case for some reason you can't get Wine working properly, or there's some other game you want to run. Wine isn't anywhere near perfect.

you could try installing a virtual box on top of your linux OS.
COD4 on linux is crap. runs barely on cedgea, and if you do multiplayer your CD player will get banned because it detects that you are disabling the anticheat software (wine doesnt support it)
If i am helpful, please give me reputation points.
