I tried setting HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Direct3D\DirectDrawRenderer to "gdi". It made no difference. Is that the corrent way to turn off the new DirectDraw changes?

Hello everybody, I installed Ubuntu 10.10 a few days ago after Windows Vista crashed again. I have to say that Linux is way better than Windows, so I don't want to go back. But I like to game sometimes, and that's the only thing Windows does better than Linux. I want to install Battlefield 2, but it really doesn't work.
