man tux racer brings back memories. getting hardware acceleration to work on xfree86 to enjoy the wonderful linux gaming selection

tux racer!
armagetron!
frozen bubble!
watching xscreensaver for hours!
being amazed at xmms visualizations because whoa this OS just has everything on a single CD and it’s free!

@getimiskon yeah tux racer is extreme tuxracer now but only got minimal changes since 2003 or so. armagetron is still in the repos too, as is frozen-bubble (also still on SDL1). and xscreensaver got a lot of additions. i actually hacked on that back in the day because each screensaver is really simple C code!

xmms is dead but there are replacements

@mia @getimiskon Funnily etr is the only one which doesn't works without xwayland (due to SFML still not having wayland support), while frozen-bubble does thanks to sdl12-compat.
