Check out wine or cedega, since CS does not exist for Linux you have to emulate windows using some sort of emulator. But how well that works is a different story. Some games work, some don't.

Well you could have just used google to find them but I'll help you anyway. Check out freshmeat.net, it is a good resource for finding programs for Linux.

Here is wine: http://www.winehq.org/
and cedega: http://www.transgaming.com/

When installing programs there are different ways. The program may be a binary and then you just need to run ./install or ./setup (or the name of the installation file may be different). It may also be a rpm or a deb (depending on the dist you are using), then you should use "rpm -i <file>" or "apt-get install <program>", check out man rpm or man apt-get for more info on that.

But, if you are like me, most programs are source code and then you need to compile them for yourself. Some programs have a configure file with the source, then run ./configure from the source tree. That will give you a Makefile, if you have all the dependencies needed. The usual thing is just to run
./configure
make
su
<password>
make install

Some programs do not use any configure file. Some may use different ways to get installed.

If you still need help almost every package come with a README and most also have a INSTALL-file. Read those, they tell you how to do things. Just RTFM.

There are good tutorials right here on LQ. Check this one out: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...ticle&artid=15

To install wine, do this:

Code:
su
<password>
mkdir /usr/local/wine
chmod 777 /usr/local/wine
exit
cd /usr/local/wine
wget http://puzzle.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/wine/Wine-20050419.tar.gz
tar -xvzf Wine-20050419.tar.gz
cd wine-20050419
./tools/wineinstall
Now just follow the instructions and wine should be installed. This example is using a mirror in switzerland (fast for me at least) and unpacks it in the /usr/local/wine dir.

Sorry, IIRC cedega is not for free and I am not sure where to find any rpms for it. I used to be able to get WineX (the old cedega) via cvs but I think they have removed it now.
