“Try as they might there are just not enough
Open-Source game developers (or even closed-sourced ones) that
bring the level of gaming quality, as of yet, to Linux that Windows
enjoys.“Enter the world of Win-on-Lin. The Wine Project, was start in
1993 and has slowly come into maturity over the course of the last
sixteen years. Wine is a compatibility layer, or more precisely a
reimplementation of the Windows API, that allows Windows
applications to run under Linux. While the Wine project does a
wonderful job of what it is designed to do (run Windows
applications on Linux) how ever it sorely lacks in the means of a
GUI front end for easy configuration/calibration.“Which brings me to my topic at hand – Cedega & Codeweavers.
What are Cedega and Codeweavers? They two (closed source) programs
both based off of the Wine Project to create what it lacks – a user
friendly interface.”
