wine users - Feb 2009 - Wine with 2x nVidia GTX260 lame peformance ingame?

Hi people.

So I got Steam running properly in WINE by reverting to version 177 of the
nVidia driver. Now I have a new problem.

I have really shitty performance for Source games in WINE. This means rainbow-y
colors, glistening walls, at ~13 fps with all lowest graphics settings.

High quality native linux games run beautifully at all highest settings,
including Penumbra and Prey and Quake 4.

I went into regedit and added
HKCU>Software>Wine>Direct3D>VideoMemorySize = "896"

The games ran without improvement. Also, after a minute or so, the games started
crashing. I can only assume this is some sort of running out of memory error.
This would suggest that WINE is confused about my graphics cards. What do I need
to do to configure WINE to use one (would both even be possible?) of my graphics
cards? Card PCI Busid are 2:0:0 and 3:0.0

Also, I tried all this with Xinerama on/off, 3/2/1 monitors. I also added the
registry key to disable XRANDR, but I think that was probably disabled from the
start by default.

The 177.x driver branch has very poor performance (this is valid on windows
aswell). Grab the 180.22 from
http://www.nvidia.com/Download/Find.aspx?lang=en-us and disable Xinerama.
Figuring out what the original problem is (what made you revert to 177) would be
a good start.

As for the registry keys, if they are missing in your registry, their default
value is used.
