I tried to run ePSXe 1.7 with wine, everything worked fine but after about a minute the entire computer would freeze. I have a ThinkPad T400 with integrated graphics (Graphics = Intel GMA X4500) with Fedora 11 64bits installed. Everything works fine, I have been on linux for more than a year and it's the first time I see a kernel failure.

This gives Wine access to processes it should not as a User program. If you are running it as a non-root user, please advise which Intel driver version you are using. Thank you. James McKenzie
in case you didn't notice: there is a linux version of ePSXe available (at least for 1.6.0). although this won't solve the probleme with wine (*if* it is wine's fault), it should allow you to do what you are trying to do: play psx games using linux.
@Daily_Lama: Actually no I need the v. 1.7. @James McKenzie: The result of lspci | grep VGA is 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 07) Then the result of glxinfo | grep renderer: OpenGL renderer string: Mesa DRI Mobile Intel? GM45 Express Chipset GEM 20090114 Hopefully it will answer your question, I know nothing about graphic cards and drivers ;) Thank you for your help.
