similar to: What about performance in 3D games?

Hi, I'm trying to install the game "Aquanox" under Wine which needs DirectX 8.0. I've found a mail in the wine mailing list archive stating that wine already includes DirectX, but Aquanox keeps complaining about a missing d3d8.dll. Trying to install DirectX 8.0, I end up with "DirectX couldn't be installed on this computer". Any hints on this one? Sebastian --

Hi, I often build wine every 2 or 3 days from cvs source, and I recognize that there are updates around x11drv, ddraws, and d3d8/9 at these days. 4 or 5 days ago, where I found that ddraws are unable to draw at all (was still working wine 0.9.15) in some games/programs which use it.

Hello, I wanted to give wine a test (never used it before), so I went forth and installed it on my - humble but not too lousy system: CPU: Intel Pentium M 1.80GHz Memory: 512MB Graphics controller: ATI RV350 (Mobility Radeon 9600 M10) While I had Windows 2000 on it, I was able to run the good old HalfLife2 pretty nice, so I thought I'd give it a shot.
