Transgaming Cedega

Cedega is a special version of Wine with extra support for DirectX® developed by Transgaming. There are 2 versions. One is the proprietary RPM that you can  get by subscribing to Transgaming. The Transgaming RPM has copy protection code,  so you can install copy protected games, Installshield, a native copy of the Microsoft® msvcrt.dll runtime library, the Microsoft® MFC components, texture compression code and the Transgaming RPM will allow you to play Windows® games full screen.
If you want to download the Transgaming rpm, you can go to www.transgaming.com and subscribe to their site at a cost of 5 US$ per month for a minimum of 3 months. The transgaming RPM cannot be redistributed.
As the source code of Cedega can be downloaded for free, we build and host binary RPM packages; you can download them from the link below. To install the rpm, in most systems just click on it, and follow the on screen instructions.
If you've never used wine or winex, run WinexSetup to set up winex;  you can find it in your KDE/Gnome menu. Alternatively, type alt+f2, write winesetup in the run command that will appear, and click on run.
Click on Next, then if you have Windows® 95/98/98SE/ME, click on Next again, if you have Windows® nt/2000/xp/server2003 or you don't have Windows®, then click on "Create a new windows partition", click on Next and then on Finish. To run a Windows® game or game installer with Cedega, click (Or double click, depending on your system settings) the exe file from KDE or Gnome. You can also run Cedega from a shell;  just run
wine filename.exe      (Where filename.exe is the name of the file you want to run)
If this fails, run  wineserver && wine filename.exe
NOTE: You cannot install both Wine and our Cedega rpm.

Please note that Wine now has DirectX
