With Cedega, you have to pay to get easy access to it. Otherwise you have to download it via CVS and compile it from the source.

If you are new to linux you might have a little trouble with the CVS method. There is no hurt in trying it though.

That's why I suggested he learns GNU/Linux first.
CVS cedega should suffice for most if not all of them games haithamsaber.

Anyone here ever actually tried to compile it from source?  I tried once (Back when it was still WineX), mostly because I was curious about how my favorite games would run under Linux.  I either couldn't compile it or couldnt' download it.

--- Quote from: http://digital-conquest.ath.cx/wiki/index.php/Subscribing_vs_Building_from_CVS ---To be blunt, setting up a working copy of Cedega from CVS is hard. Really hard. There are tools out there to help you do it, but even then, if your system isn't perfectly set up for building Cedega, with all the right libraries and headers, there's a very good chance you're going to have trouble getting it to compile and run properly. Another difficulty with getting a CVS build set up is that it can be almost impossible to get the files from the TransGaming's CVS server. Demand on the server has increased so much recently that access had to be severely limited and it can an extended amount of retrying to actually get the source code from the server.

I actually got it to compile once before. Using a script that did all the work.
