Not really sure where to put this post, but here it goes. I have a Dell CPXJ650 with P3 and 128 ram running xubuntu. I love the Elder Scrolls series, and though I know I won't be playing oblivion on the machine (that would be cool though) I would be able to run Elder Scrolls: Arena. This is an old (dinosaur age just kidding) game, that was meant for MS-DOS. I know an emulator for windows, mac, and linux, but given the machine I run and software, I don't know if it will work. I don't see ubuntu on the list. Here is the link:

please tell me which one do I download, or tell me if I should get another emulator or something, like wine.

DOSBOX is in the repositories, just run:
sudo apt-get install dosbox
You can also install it through Synaptic or from "Applications->Add and remove"

do you think Daggerfall may work?
