AVR512

I'm searching for an API that could allow my to play games on Ubuntu as i do on XP or Vista....please provide my a link for downloading the API and thanks in advance!!!

APIs are commands in which the games are developed with. Having a single API won't run a game.

OpenGL works in Linux.
I believe Wine is a DirectX emulation in Linux.

sorry i'm a n00b in all those API stuff.....is OpenGL already installed on Ubuntu and please give me the download link for both.

Ya OpenGl is already installed in Ubuntu. Most OpenGl games should work in Linux. Here is a website of some OpenGL games.Wine can take some DirectX games and Emulate them so Ubuntu will recognize it. I found a link on how to install DirectX9 in Ubuntu. I am not sure if it works. What games are you trying to run in Ubuntu? Because most top of the line games will not run.

and i suppose ubuntu can overcome PCI errors since my AUDIGY value card is not being detected on two of my PCI slots and works on only one slot but the drivers dont install when i use it on that slot....

i have a similar issue with one of my old systems. the sound card and network card won't work if they're installed right next to each other. only one or the other.
