I've recently tried Paraworld Gold v1.05 on Fedora 15 and my experience differs
a bit: when starting a single-player game (campaign or skirmish), the game
neither crashes nor freezes...it just sits there with the loading screen (the
mouse pointer is moving and music is playing but nothing else happens).
As if the game was waiting for something...

After starting a single-player game, there are 3 processes running:
PWClient.exe
Paraworld.exe
PWServer.exe 127.0.0.1:666

PWServer.exe tries to communicate on a low port number which is not allowed for
a normal user under Linux. 
Unfortunately, I couldn't find a way to change that port number by looking into
the game config files. Maybe it is hard-coded in the executable.

On the other hand, multiplayer works because in MP the PWServer.exe uses a
higher port number. In case of hosting a MP game, in the process list:
PWServer.exe  my.ip.add.ress:1905
