Is it possible to install WINE with a 2D only videocard?? I have a chipset that is not supported by Linux and I fear it will never be, I have an SIS 760/761 integrated chipset this chipset is known not to have any 3D support what so ever. I can't slap in a new video card because it's in a laptop and to my knowledge there is no way to put a new videocard into the laptop, so I am hoping there is some way i can run games with ddraw without Wine3D???
Define pain. Mesa3d software rendering will turn over wine. Now if you turn over a game too heavy you will basically run out of CPU. Other issue I have seen no work to add fully functional 2d support to X11 for the SIS cards either. http://www.winischhofer.eu/linuxsispart1.shtml#13 760 are known to be evil. So even if the 2d side works you are still going to run into hell.
