Works:
Most everything
Does Not Work:
Alt+Enter fullscreen; will wreak havoc on your display, pressing Alt+Enter will reverse the damage but it is rather startling.
Playing .mid or .mp3 files (use .ogg instead of .mp3, its open-source anyways); wip (this is a general linux [for midi at least, mp3 in linux {not under wine} is pretty easy] and/or hardware issue [If your sound card can do midi it may work] and not RMXP on linux in particular)
I have taken the liberty of converting the RTP music for both RPG XP and VX from .mid to .ogg, you can download either by clicking the icons below. There is not one for VXAce as their music is already all .ogg.

Just unzip the contents into the proper directory and delete the .mid files.
Also, This method's (and likely any other's) success/failure is in part based on your graphics card.
