You're telling BF1942 menu always has 800x600 and ingame there is the higher resolution? I will check this in WinXP, I doubt ...
I have strange fonts ingame and suppose it's caused by a wrong resolution: E.g. in wine and in the game I configured 1024x768 but after all it's rendered in 800x600, scaled up to 1024x768 => approximation, faulty fonts.

As I posted above with ALSA I had have more troubles. OSS works better. Maybe there is a better distance calculater?

I have no framerate-counter but it should be a low framerate for some moments. It just looks like a (network) lag (though I doubt it's a network lag).
I installed all patches otherwise I couldn't play on most servers.
