Wine runs windows applications but not games. For that you would need what was known as WineX but is now called Cedega by TransGaming. Take a look at www.transgaming.com (http://www.transgaming.com) or www.transgaming.org (http://www.transgaming.org) for a list of supported games and how well they work.

Hope it helps,

Oney i went there and found out it was for sale,.,.

but i found another alternative location,. which is still free,.,

the problem is i cant install it in ubuntu,.,. since the file comes in .gz form,.,

and i can't do sudo apt-get for the said X window system,.

http://www.x.org/Downloads.html this is the location of the X windows system that wine said,.. i saw some screenshots of the games that can run and it was cool.,

can u teach me on how to install the X window system that wineHQ provided?
it comes in src and src-single but i cant manage to install it.,., pls help me,.,
