Is anyone running Half Life and Mods in Linux? I dont think it is possible, but i might be wrong. And is any one running any other games in Linux, that say Windows 98 required or something? Or am i going to have to find a special Linux version that probably doesnt exsist?

Thanks in advance.

There is no Half-Life for Linux nor are there any plans for one (same for CS). You can run HL and CS in Linux through WINE and get pretty decent framerates, though.

The good news is there is Half-Life and other mods in Linux. Check out this site (http://lhl.linuxgames.com/)for the details on how to install. There is also Unreal Tournament and Quake3 that can also be played in Linux. You will need the full install discs for Windows for each game.
