Yes, it can to some degree be compared with DirectX. About other games
that use it I did take alook at the reverse dependencies of the
libsdl-mixer1.2 package and maybe you have one of these games in use:
blobwars, blockattack, blockout2, briquolo, ceferino, crack-attack
(like that one ;)), cuyo, enigma, fillets-ng (cool puzzle game),
frozen-bubble, icebreaker, mirrormagic, pachi, pingus, pokerth,
supertransball2, supertux, widelands, wormux, xmoto ...
Aren't all but should be enough to get you started. If you want to have
a full list, install the dctrl-tools package and use the following
commands:
sudo sync-available
grep-available -FDepends libsdl-mixer1.2 -a -FSection games -sPackage
That will give you a complete list of packages that depend on
libsdl-mixer1.2 :)
So long!

wesnoth no sound, high cpu usage, can't quit without freezing the application

Status in “wesnoth” package in Ubuntu: Invalid
Bug description:
Binary package hint: wesnoth
I hear no music or sound, wesnoth freezes after trying to close the game by pressing button "quit". Removing settings folder and starting the application fresh doesn't help:
rm -r .wesnoth1.6/
It also freezes after trying to untick all sound options in sound preferences (buttons sound, music, unit sound, something else...)
At all time it attempts to use 100% cpu
