For testing purpose i chose 2 games: Starcraft  and Civilization IV   The result should be a one click solution, which edit wine config files , so that it possible to use windows games without any additional configuration.   following help needed: Gui : gtk2-perl wine: basic info how to handle  wine config files. testing : ;)       Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: It will help new openSUSE users to use Linux for Windows games!
