wine -opengl problem

Hello,

I will try to explain my problem and hopely someone could give me some hints.

Ive go these packages: wine 0.9.56-1, xorg-server 1.4.0.90-9,      nvidia-96xx, linux kernel 2.6.24
My Computer prefferences are: Duron 750mhz, 512MB RAM and a gforce 400 MX graphic card
my xorg.conf

Back on winXP I could run World of Warcraft with about 30fps without any problem and enjoy this game,
but now Im trying to start it on linux with "-opengl" flag on and also I did the regedit but i can run it with only like 1-8 fps.
Is there any possible way to run it on this machine?
Thanks for help.

Re: wine -opengl problem

750MHz? Are you crazy? Wine has to convert a lot of functions, this takes extra CPU cycles adding on an overhead that brings a weak 750MHz CPU to its knees. I seriously recommend you get a new computer if you want to run Wow through wine. That being said their are some things you can do like running wine in its own X session and killing off processes that you don't need running in the background though with an old 750MHz Duron this still isn't going to make that much of an improvement.
