The Bejeweled 3 website says that this game requires DirectX 9.0c. So the game will require functioning 3D acceleration from your Linux OS. Do you have a graphics card capable of playing this game? Do you have propriety drivers installed for the card?

The following command will show your graphics card model (if you are not sure):

Code:
lspci | grep -i vga



Also what distro (and version) are you currently using?
