http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17222 Summary: Extreme slowness in multiple games - nVidia/KDE4/openSUSE Product: Wine Version: 1.1.14 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: chris(a)chrobis.com For many of the last few releases of Wine (somewhere not long after 1.0), I've experience extreme slowness across multiple systems and multiple games that wasn't present pre-1.0 or in 1.0 itself. Specifically, I've noted slowness that makes gameplay impossible in: - Age of Empires (1997) - Birth of the Federation (1999) - Age of Empires 2 (1999) - Medieval 2: Total War (2006) - Star Trek: Legacy (2006) The slowdown is significant and affects as you can see a wide range of games on three machines that I own, all of which are more than capable of playing certainly the first few titles on the list. Of the three machines I own and have tested Wine on, the following are common threads: - Running openSUSE 11.0 or 11.1 - Running latest Wine (1.1.14) - Desktop environment is KDE4 (though no improvement running with GNOME) - All nVidia cards (but range from an old FX5200 through to an 8400) - All using Wine, KDE4 and nVidia from openSUSE repositories. That aside, they have nothing in common. Two are 32-bit, one is 64-bit. Two are running relatively old graphics cards, one is running a fairly new one. Two are Intel machines, one is AMD. Two have 512MB of RAM, one has 2GB. I like to do my bit for Wine by filing bug reports for various apps but this slowdown is hindering me somewhat! I don't know a great deal about how to start debugging, but if someone can suggest to me how I can help diagnose this problem, I'd be more than happy to help :) -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
