I have confirmed Warcraft 3 plays much smoother on RedHat9. I do experience 
the same type of hiccups on RH9 in terms of when they occur (ex at the 
beginning of a game when selecting my workers). However, they are so short 
they are barely noticeable.

I ran the game with the same nvidia drivers and the same version of wine 
(0.9.1) on both distros. The next step will be to see if recompiling my FC4 
kernel helps performance.

Cheers.
