Thanks for the link, i have read all these but i am just not sure that the data files from steam can be used in the same way as the files from an "DVD/CD-install" of the same game. (encryption? key-codes?)

OK, but it is not that easy to find CD/DVD versions of all these games, and steam is just sooo easy when that old gamer-itch need to be scratched ;-)
So i would like to know if anybody has tried this :
1. buy id game on steam, and install in windows
2. run linux installer (in Linux)
3. copy the pk4 files and play (as per the instructions for CD/DVD version)
