Kratz00 helped me to run this game on Ubuntu 14.04:

Segmentation Fault
I installed ghex and I modified the file ref_glx.so
"When you start reading the Kingpin and Kingpin GL_EXTENSIONS breaks off with Received Signal 11, exiting ... Opens the ref_glx.so with a hex editor (eg hexcurse), studied in ASCII mode by GL_EXTENSIONS and replaces the% s behind by two space (hex code 20)"

I had to install the package alsa-oss:
sudo apt-get install alsa-oss
I typed this command in the terminal to load the kernel module:
sudo modprobe snd-pcm-oss
I added this line: snd-pcm-oss to file: /etc/modules.
I rebooted my computer as root I typed this command:
echo 'kingpin.x86 0 0 direct' > /proc/asound/card0/pcm0p/oss
exit
FInally, I can run this incredible classic game for Linux which was published in 1999:
cd kingpin
./kingpin.sh
