I can play WoW perfectly, it is 100% stable and I can get great fps. One problem though, when I minimize the game and I maximize it, sometimes I can just keep playing happily but sometimes thats not the case. I minimize it, maximize it again and the FPS drops to about 10-20fps (anywhere). As you might know, this is VERY annoying, I've tried changing loads of settings in-game with no help.

I've successfully set up 3 machines now (2 nvidia and one radeon 7500, all ubuntu gutsy) with compiz and aiglx and have been very happy with compiz on all of them. Scaling is wonderful. I'm trying to do my main workstation now which is a multihead (dual) configuration with an nvidia 6150: 00:05.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation C51PV [GeForce 6150] (rev a2) Both displays

Hello, I'm having big trouble getting wine to work. What I basically want to do is get steam to work, now it even fails to launch at all. It updates to 99% and then it segfaults. Other games has done this too (rollercoaster tycoon 2, starcraft 2). I followed the instructions on winehq, removed oriya/samyak fonts and I don't think I've done anything wrong - I've installed steam

Hi I am trying to get Battlefield 2 and Battlefield 2142 to launch under Kubuntu 10.04 & Wine 1.3.6. I'm using an Nvidia 8800 GTX 768Mb GPU with Nvidia blob driver 260.19.12. Anyway launching BF2142 (retail copy, patched to v1.5) gives me the following error (2x) in the console output streams: Code: ... err:x11settings:X11DRV_ChangeDisplaySettingsEx No matching mode found 800x600x32

Hello guys, i've decided to test nouveau driver and installed it recently from official repos. My videocard is GeForce 4 with additional S-video and Composite outputs, 64 MB of memory. I installed xubuntu, and tried to use nouveau driver instead of official nvidia's. After switching driver, the boot splash xubuntu logo turned into poor coloured low-resolutioned one, but X loaded normally.

Good Day, I am not 100% certain if here is the right place to bring this up, however if this is the wrong place for this please redirect me to right place. A few weeks ago I was trying to install KVM on my laptop, I bought a new laptop and immediately after I install the nVidia drivers I receive the following error "libfcoe_device_notification: NETDEV_UNREGISTER lo" I spent several

Hello CentOS-Community, I have to maintain a server that should be useable with VNC and some software requires to run VirtualGL. Also a nvidia graphic card is installed. After downloading and installing the nvidia driver from nvidias homepage and modifying the xorg.conf as mentioned on the virtualgL-homepage, I am not able to restart lightdm anymore. Lightdm should be running, otherwise

I have two monitors, one landscape and the other portrait. When I rotate the portrait monitor using xrandr (or the xorg.conf option) the mouse cursor on the landscape monitor is also rotated and the "click point" is no longer below the cursor (this makes the mouse practically unusable). The cursor is correct on the rotated monitor. Setting NoAccel "False" and HWCursor

I just purchased a Dell Inpiron 9300 from the Dell Outlet store. Installing CentOS4 went very, very smoothly until I tried configuring X. The 17" screen has a 16:10 aspect ratio with a 1920x1200 resolution. The best I could manage using system-config-display was 1600x1200. So, after a bit of research, I hand editted the xorg.conf file (reproduced below) and it now works great. Maybe

Hello, I try to run StarCraft on FreeBSD 7.0 using wine 1.1.1. The game hangs while I'm running it (I can see loading and image with 3 characters). Also StarEdit is very slow, however it doesn't hang. I installed Stronghold Crousader on FreeBSD using wine and it seems to work fine. I installed some linux games (unreal tournament 2004, unreal tournament, tuxracer) and I suppose that DRI

Last Thursday, for some reason (possibly a power failure), my work desktop had a different video configuration than when I left Wednesday evening. I have two 17" flat panels configured as a two-head wide (side-by-side) single display. When I arrived on Thu, I had two individual desktops instead, the resolution was down to 800x600, and so on. The monitor type had been reset to generic

I've been working hard to get my Wacom tablet to work as my primary pointing device. I've installed the drivers and followed the instructions at the Linux Wacom project at Sourceforge. And I've been largely successful. The drivers are working, the configuration utilities are working. I'm just one step away from success. Apparently the problem is that my mouse and my USB tablet

Hi, Thanks for your advice..! I have a few follow-up questions (tagged below Q1, Q2 and Q3). Any help highly/extremely appreciated. Regarding to "reverse prime", etc. I have read the following page: https://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/Optimus/ So, if we want a single "macro" xscreen that spans two cards, for example: Card 0, connected to monitor 0 Card 1, connected to

Hi, I just installed the latest nouveau driver from git to try if it works and after modifying my xorg.conf and switching to xorg-x11 opengl startx changes screenmode (screen gets black) and nothing more happens. I can ssh from another maschine and see that X takes 100% CPU but nothing more happens. I am on Gentoo Linux, followed the guide from the Wiki, have Xorg-x11-7.2, tuxonice patched

Hello list, I just had a first shot at the "nouveau" Xorg driver, I'm a regular "nv" user. It compiled and installed without a itch in a short time, congrats (great instructions on http://nouveau.freedesktop.org/wiki/InstallNouveau), ran fine... but with a funny vertical fencing effect: one vertical line out of two was black. After a few minutes, the effect would
