The crashing issue is indeed fglrx driver's problem and it have been fixed in the latest fglrx drivers. But now I found Oblivion run very slowly with fglrx drivers, does anyone also meet the same issue? Is it wine's or fglrx driver's problem?
The issue is not fixed in fglrx 8.8, or do you use any other/newer/beta version I don't know about? As already stated I used fglrx 8.8 (latest available on ati.amd.com) and WINE 1.1.3 (will try with 1.1.4 this evening), and it's not fixed in any way. To be honest (sry off topic): I bought a ATI card because I wanted to support their new Linux strategy, but I guess everyone knows the bug that doesn't let your Xserver shut down or restart (PC freezes completely). This bug is around for 2 years now, and was never fixed. Now this issue came up and I cannot play games any more. Why the hell should I stay with ATI? I give it some more time though...
The fix could be included in the next offical release. But after fixing the crashing issue, Oblivion still run very slowly by wine. There should not be any Xserver shut down freezing issue, what version of Linux do you use?
