Linux really isn't an operating system that is used for gaming. If you are seriously considering using that laptop for gaming, I'd suggest you at least dual boot Windows on it.

Here's some lists of some games that do work on Linux:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_gaming#Massively_multiplayer_online_role-playing_games
http://www.brighthub.com/video-games/mmo/articles/20510.aspx
http://www.wiki4mmo.com/index.php?title=Linux_gamers

Also, if you run a program called WINE, you should be able to run many of the games developed for Windows.

Good luck Very Happy.

Are you calling it Linex for a reason?

Yeah honestly if you are going to keep with linux the first apt-get you should do is Wine.

If you are running Debian or Ubuntuu linux you can just go to the terminal and type apt-get wine

Otherwise visit
