Game is currently in beta devel (current build v0.69) -- one can
use/participate with the beta release on the condition that you are prepared to
pre-purchase a usage license. That purchase must be made via facilities built
into the game launcher UI, however this is not working for us, with the
'Purchase' page of the launcher always displaying the error text of ;

"A detectable CPU, permanent storage device, and Ethernet or wireless (802.11)
card are required to purchase the simulation. Currently, this application
cannot detect these components. If these components are available and you
believe this message is an error, please contact support at rfactor.net" 

...and as such, one cannot purchase a license. I did actually email the support
email cited, but the reply was merely a 'seems wine is not compatible' type of
answer. Other functions of the launcher UI seemingly work, including the config
utility (which does detect GPU setup).

Issue can be reproduced by downloading/installing the latest beta offering from
the following URL, starting it, and clicking on the 'Purchase' tab in the UI ;

*attached a +trace log being the result of such a procedure
