Correct as there's no such thing as Ubuntu 22.03.

When I gamed on Linux a lot (ironically, Return to Castle Wolfenstein and Enemy Territory) I used to run a second Xserver.

Obvious typo (meant 22.04) :p

And yeah I suppose gaming on Linux will always be the test of time however you look at it.

If playing it locally in DOSBox on Linux here are some settings to try out in your ~/.dosbox/wolf3d.conf copy of ~/.dosbox/dosbox-x.xx-x.conf

  [cpu]
  
  core=auto
  cputype=auto
  cycles=10000
  cycleup=10
  cycledown=20

And at the bottom of the file add your own mount like this:

  [autoexec]
  # Lines in this section will be run at startup.
  # You can put your MOUNT lines here.
  
  @ECHO OFF
  MOUNT C /games
  C:
  CD WOLF3D
  WOLF3D
  EXIT

Then start the game with:

  dosbox -conf ~/.dosbox/wolf3d.conf
