Most emulators emulate 32 bit systems and so it does not make total sense to port them to 64 bit.
Many 64bit OS users keep a "chroot"ed 32bit system where 32bit apps (such as mozilla with flash & java plugins, openoffice) can be run with 32 libraries. WIne works fine for me there.
It is also possible to install parts of a 32bit system in the main tree (ie without the chroot) making sure ldconfig knows where the correct linkers and libraries are and that installed applications don't confict.
I'm a Debian user, so I'm sorry I don't know how easily this can be set up in either FC or Mandrake.

when I write Cedega now
after I've installed it I think

it says

Code:

[zuki@localhost usr]$ cedega
Moving all local fonts to /home/zuki/.transgaming_global/Fonts and removing local Fonts directory
usage: cedega [-use-pthreads <yes/no>] [[-]-winver <version>] [[-]-debugmsg <debug>] [[-]-version] [[-]-use-dos-cwd <dir>] [[-]monitor-cdrom-eject] <application> [application parameters]

If you require additional help, please refer the HOWTO guide in the downloads section of the subscribers area.

How can I run a game with it?
:S

I've installed Ati drivers but now, Generals sometimes loaded with lag and I have to exit and then I should reenter my username and password to login to linux
and sometimes writing the line with cedega ... generals.exe making me go to login screen again without doing a thing!.
