By default, games installed in Ubuntu 12.04 have a pair of touch-and-touch functions, such as playing the dragon, clearing, Sudoku, and card games. This certainly cannot meet the entertainment needs of most users. Fortunately, the Ubuntu Software Center provides many interesting games for users to download and install.
The first step to installing a game is to install proprietary drivers.
Both Nvidia and AMD develop proprietary drivers. The source code of these drivers is not published. Therefore, the Ubuntu software center cannot load these drivers into Ubuntu software systems. Some programmers develop free drivers for earlier video cards. When installing Ubuntu, Ubuntu will automatically detect the free drivers that best suit your system and install them in your operating system. Although these free drivers also provide 3D acceleration, the speed and effect of the latest graphics card and its driver are far inferior to those of the latest ones due to rapid hardware updates. The method to activate a proprietary driver is also very simple. Dash home page-> application-> additional driver, or system settings-> hardware-> additional driver. Select and activate the appropriate proprietary driver.
After the driver is completed, you can install the game you are interested in.
Search for your favorite games from the Ubuntu Software Center and click Install.
After installation, you can find the game you have installed on the Dash homepage> Applications> games.
