I've been using Linux Ubuntu for a few days, but I already love it :) However, when I'm running windows games under wine, I get less than 10fps, while under windows they work really fast. I have installed latest Nvidia drivers from ubuntu repositories and Direct X 9c under wine (yes, dxdiag works, and it passes all the tests). I have also seen on youtube, that many people don't have

I've recently installed Wine onto my ubuntu intrepid ibex box and I'm having endless issues when it comes to running games. Right now, I'm specifically trying to play World of Warcraft and I am receiving graphical issues that cause the game to be unplayable.

I have been trying to add a launcher to the gnome menu for some of my wine games, but I have found that when I add them to the menu the games complain about missing files, I assume because it is looking for the rest of the game files in the directory that the launcher is in. This doesn't happen when I run the same command within the games directory they work fine. I used to have this problem

In 1.1.5 the sound/music in games played allright. Since 1.1.6 it skips badly - plays for a couple of seconds, then stops for half a second, then plays again, then skips and so on. Happens on every game on Steam - Team Fortress 2, Everyday Shooter, Peggle Extreme - and also without Steam - Icy Tower. I have Razer Barracuda AC-1 sound card. I've found that in Winecfg when I choose Alsa driver

Hello, I noticed that in the last period, many gaming companies started to build free games for the online platforms. I think that in the next period of time, they will appear allot of 3d games on social sites. My example is N.O.V.A. from facebook (developed by Gameloft). From my pov it's a very good start for online 3d games. So, what's my problem: I want to play nova on linux, using

Knowledge Probe Inc. makes some very nice math and word puzzle games. These worked a while back in WINE but not recently. (A lot of that going around, even now going to beta!). I do not have their URL handy. They all fail with unregestered objects. Problematic in the past but not fatal was their trying to check for new games on line. I have never had such work with WINE.

I have recently gotten back into making a games with gamemaker. I had a big game that I didn't finish on my old computer running Windows XP. But then my stupid sister dropped my laptop done the stairs. That was about 2 months ago, and I got a new laptop running OSX because my parents hate Windows (while I love it). I was looking through a flashdrive with my stuff from my old laptop on it

Anyone else notice that launching of games (CSS, HL2, etc.) from Steam appears to be foobar'd using the current SVN (wine-1.1.15-221-g79cc416)? I haven't had a chance to do _proper_ regression test yet, but a quick test of jumping back to 1.14 made things work again. Other games (tested with Anarchy Online) are working fine with the current SVN, so I'm supposing the bug is somehow

See bug 23374. Originally, this was an issue raised for one particular game. But my experiences with other games from the same company indicate that this may be a more widespread problem for their games. The original poster tried one of their "Strange Cases" games. I've tried a "Natalie Brooks" and an "Alabama Smith" adventure. Each keeps coming up with the

I just got a steam update and steam stopped working. It didn't work in wine 1.1.43 (which I had at the time) or wine 1.2rc1 (which I installed to try to fix it) including after a reinstall.
