my friend told me that he wasn't able to get games running in linux 
because linux doesn't support directX (he had just scratched the 
surface on this subject though).  while i don't play games a lot, 
occasionally me and him will link up over cable and play multiplayer 
games.  so the question is....can directX be used in linux or is there 
an equivalent to it that i can run all my windows based games off of?  
or is there a way to patch it in?  i havn't even attempted to install any 
of my games yet, but it'd be nice to be able to and then point him in 
the right direction as well.  btw, he's only dependant on winblows 
anymore because of gaming.  that's the only thing holding him back 
from making a perminant switch to mandrake.  Thanks for any info.  

and now that i am sending this out, i'm about to switch back to 
mandrake from winblows and start searching the links that you guys 
(and gals) gave me for programs and i'll probably run across a fix for 
this...that's just my luck...ask a question then immediately find the 
answer on my own!
