Wine

[RobyX]

I've been using Linux for.. about 4 day's now. I learned the basics of installing/uninstalling/updating and navigating thru Ubuntu itself and etc... But now I want to install DiabloII.

So far from what I know, is that I need to install something called Wine? then I just pop in my installation cd's? Can someone just point me in the right direction of what need's to be done so I dont end up wasting time and doing something stupid.

This will help you set up WINE step by step. I've followed the WINE guide before and it worked for me.

Perhaps you can google a bit of advice?

Not to sound grumpy, but you should value the time of people willing to help more than you value your time, as they gain nothing from helping you. Read a bit, and only then come and ask questions; your questions would be more to the point and much more sensible that way.
(hint: wine's .deb repository is located at http://wine.sourceforge.net/apt/)
