http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13919

Summary: directx.c NVIDIA GPUs memory detection can be vastly
                    improved
           Product: Wine
           Version: CVS/GIT
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: directx-d3d
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

There is a nice utility named nvclock, which allows overclocking of NVIDIA
GPUs. This utility also shows very detailed information about the installed
NVIDIA GPUs.

I suppose Wine could

1) use nvclock utility directly by running `nvclock -i | awk '/Amount/{print
$2}'` which directly yields the required number:

256

2) use nvclock as a shared static library (nvclock/src/backend/* -> nvclock.a)

3) incorporate a piece of nvclock code which detects the amount of GPU memory
(nvclock/src/backend/info.c)
