Summary: Games don't work using open source radeon drivers. Product: Wine Version: 1.1.36 Platform: x86-64 URL: http://www.x.org/wiki/RadeonFeature OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: directx-d3d AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: cruiseoveride@gmail.com
I've been using the open source radeon drivers (xf86-video-ati) and mesa on my PC with great success. However no games really work well under WINE. Not even as well as with the dreaded fglrx.
Is this because wine uses a lot of driver dependent code and developers have just not had the time/hardware to work on implementing the same wined3d features on radeon as they have done on fglrx and nvidia?
I am using a Radeon HD4870 on Ubuntu 9.10 X86_64 and mesa,drm,xf86-video-ati from git.
