From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

true enough, video acceleration is a bit harder / more expensive with an extra gpu, thats why i shyed away from suggesting vms
Yeah, I realize that and that's a nuisance for a videogame... If the game is small enough, OP might be able to give it a virtual GPU with VirtualBox, I did it in the past to play with friends on a single computer. I don't know if the usual KVM-based VMs support it as well.
