Hi, i played HL2 nonsteam version, dxlevel9 1680x1050 models and textures at high, others on low and it works fine(25+ fps). Now i tried play Steam version of HL2 and when i switch resolution to 1680x1050 it crashes... I also play Team fortress 2 through Steam and got very low FPS at dxlevel9(I play it with dxlevel 81, 1024x768 windowed, medium settings and it works fine). I have Ubuntu 9.10 64bit, wine version 1.1.39, graphics drivers 185.18.36 Where is the problem? Is it on Steam? My specs: Core2duo e7300 @ 2.66ghz 2gb ram 800mhz nvidia 8500GT

Is it on Steam?Steam does consume lots of resources if it's open. Always use 'wine steam -applaunch <game_id>' command to start games when steam isn't running. Of course Wine's d3d speed is at best 2/3 of native. In most cases much less, especially when it comes to newish stuff (SM3.0+, FP data formats, etc).
