Cedega (formerly known as WineX) allows Windows-based games to run on Linux, out-of-the-box, seamlessly and transparently. The new v4.1 supports DirectX 9.0 that works on top of the OpenGL 1.5 API, including Pixel and Vertex shaders, and a programmable pipeline.  The Cedega Time Limited Demo (v4.0) from November 2nd to November 15th is intended to acquaint gamers with the technology and showcase how effectively games can run OpenGL API accelerated on Linux using Cedega.
