I tried to install the ATI 3D acceleration for my card Radeon 9800XT. So far I didn'tsucced and I currently have to use Mesa for that. Now I managed to get at least the fglrx driver working with agpgart but when I use this then my system immediatly crashes when I try to run Agent from wine. I doubt that Agent is the cuplrit, so I guess this is something in wine.
The screen goes simply blank and I can't see anything. I have to power off.
When I disable the agpgart module I can run wine as well.
My system: Kernel 2.4.22 (kernel.org) Suse 8.2 pro (with the drivers from the latest release). Wine is the CVS download from today (I just downloaded it about an hour ago and installed it).
Everything else works fine. When I run glxgears it works, even though I have only 400 FPS because of the missing 3D acceleration.
Any ideas whats wrong there or how I can debug this? Maybe this will give me a clue as whats wrong with my 3D acceleration as well.
Try to set the UseDGA option in the wine config file to "N" to fix the problem. The problem is a bug in the ati drivers.

I tried that but it still crashes. I think there is only the one in ~/.wine/config right?

Anyway, even if Wine may be faulty, an X crash is always an X bug or an X driver bug :-)
Best way to fix this is to do a +relay trace with Synchronous set to On in your config file and try to see where Wine stops (ie in which DLL initialisation).

FYI, I use nptl, 2.6, and ati-drivers-3.2.8 (/not/ in wine-compatibility mode), and it works fine AFAIK.

I'll report this to the XFree team.
O now managed to get it run. I had to switch of DGA support in X as well. Setting it N in the wine/config didn't help. It seems that wine doesn't reall honour this flag. Well, it works now. Should this be a bug report to not forget about it?
