I know SCID, but the last time I looked at it, it was a database, not a playing program. Also, I don't know how well the DGTNix driver for my DGT board will work. Even the official Windows driver is sometimes flacky...

- Games: I use few of them but you can try Playonlinux . Remember also that SteamOS will be a Linux distro and that we can expect more and more games in the next months.

I'll look at PlayOnLinux for my older RPG's. Quite a few of them seem to work fine in WINE. I don't do Steam. I only buy games from GOG.com. Maybe Steam does Linux, but their games depend on their service, and I don't like that.
