What's your favorite Linux game that doesn't require GPU acceleration?

[Barfo]

I'm looking for some games to pass the time while in airports or waiting for people. My laptop has integrated graphics and Ubuntu 10.04. Any recommendations?

I like Mahjong and solitaire for mindless clicking. SuperTux is kind of fun, and OpenArena, and World of Padman are FPSs that I think will work with integrated gfx.

Well I've been playing DwarfFortress for windows, but there's a Linux version that renders using text. It's an ASCII game though and it is EXTREMELY hard to figure out what to do at first, but it is AWESOME (if you're in to that type of stuff).

*edit: forgot to mention, this game doesn't use much graphics but really punishes the cpu. It can sometimes bring fast machines to their knees.

The KDEGames package has some interesting games (on 9.04). KNetWalk is fun, but might be hard to play without a mouse. Killbots can take an hour or more to finish, when played properly, so if you like it it's a really good time waster!

I also installed my old Unreal Tournament on Ubuntu. It generally works fine, but you should deactivate your screen saver before running it, or it can lock up your system! :\

World of Goo. Runs at any res, even off a netbook. Only down side is I think I would prefer to use a mouse playing it. The track pad doesn't quite give you the dexterity you need

I managed to get Worms Armaggedon working in a virtual machine through Virtualbox.
