Hello, I am also new to Knoppix, but have been doing some researching into getting games to work w/ Linux. Basically here is what I have found out it takes.

1. Proper Video Driver - Since you are running a 5200, this is a little easier, www.nvidia.com has a set of drivers for linux, however I am having no luck getting them to work, could be just me or how I got everything set up.

2. This is an either or situation.

A. Linux versions of the games, I know a while back UT and some others were making Linux versions, if you have a copy, this should be much easier.

B. Cedega. This is for your windows versions. It's basically Wine with support for games. You can find out about it at www.transgaming.com


Like I said I am also new. If anyone would like to add things I missed or errors , feel free to.
