Unfortunately turning AlwaysOffscreen on results in problems with some other apps, for example FPS drops dramatically in Braid (with AlwaysOffscreen disabled FPS is smooth 60 @1680x1050, while it drops to around 21-24 FPS after enabling AO). AFAIK turning AlwaysOffscreen isn't expected to produce huge FPS dropdowns so it is most likely a bug. As AO is expected to be turned on by default in future versions of Wine I'm going to file a separate bug report about FPS dropdown problem in Braid.
Don't enable AlwaysOffscreen by default because it garbles buffer shadows in many games (FlyFF, Sudeki...)(In reply to comment #44)
