Does anyone know of any games that will work in linux Mandrake 10.0. I would like to find a space type game. When I was on Windows 98se I used to play an online mmpog called Mankind. I love that game but it won't work with linux. I can't seem to find any games such as this that plays in realtime. Everything that comes remotely close is mostly turn based. I like to explore and build and every now and again fight. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! I am going nuts that I can't play anything in my game genre.
Thanks,

Ive gotten Homeworld 2 working very well useing Cedega. There is also a native linux port for Homeworld 1. These are very nice space Real Time Strategy games. The are not however MMOs
I have Homeworld 1 lying around here somewhere. I played it a bit when I was on Windows. But I couldn't get past like the 4th or 5th level. I never tried to play it on Mandrake. As far as Cedega goes, I tried to download it yesterday to play some of these Windows based games but the company wants a subscription in order to download the Cedega software. I haven't looked into an older WineX version for Mandrake 10.0.
Thanks,
