Summary: City of Heroes runs very slowly when in-game "Contacts" window is opened, sometimes corrupts graphics Product: Wine Version: 0.9.49. Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: wine-directx AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: jsbiff@weldingengineering.com
I have been trying to play City of Heroes using Wine on Ubuntu. It's mostly working pretty good, but I seem to be consistently getting very bad behavior from the game when I try to open the contacts list/window. Sometimes, when I'm lucky, the game just runs very slowly, rendering about 1 frame every 3-5 seconds, until I close the contacts list. Other times, the video card graphics get corrupted so badly that I have to power off the computer and power it back on to be able to use the computer again.

Any terminal output? If so - attach as file.
Also you should check for any video driver issues / hardware problems.

--- Comment #2 from Jeff Schmidt jsbiff@weldingengineering.com 2007-11-26 11:16:19 --- Ok, this appears that it may have been a driver issue. I'm using Ubuntu 7.10, and they have two deb packages for nvidia drivers - nvidia-glx, and nvidia-glx-new. I had been using the -new package. After downgrading to the nvidia-glx package (which is an older version of the nvidia driver), the problem appears to have gone away.
