Is there any graphic standards for Linux game programming, like OpenGL and DirectX?

OpenGL is available for Linux, both commercial implementations and MESA a free implementation.

OpenGL is standard pretty much everywhere. None of the other APIs are standardized to a decent degree, and there are too many of them. On a side note, is there any way to do hardware accelerated morphs in GL liek there is in D3D7? Arigatoo gozaimasu

I almost forgot, Glide is also available on Linux.
And I think the icon is supposed to be Santa Claus.

For low-level graphics (think blitting), sound, CD-audio, input, threading, etc. SDL is a fairly standard library. It does not do 3D, or some of the higher functionality 2D. But there are packages that sit on top of SDL that give you more options.
