I have not seen much in reviews for Halo.  System I have it on is Hp 2.4 Ghz single core amd athlon 64.  256 mb video nvidia  and 1.5 gig of ram.  Running on 32 bit mint 6.  Also in game play fps is below 10.  Before the game starts in the video it is 25-30 fps.  I have dropped all effects to the lowest levels and even cut off compiz on my desktop.  Any help would be great.

As the folks at PlayOnLinux.  This is not supported here.  However, I
have an idea, Wine will attempt to use more than one CPU/Core, but if
the game is not multi-threaded, then everything will be loaded onto
one.  That happens here on MacOSX as well.
