Hi,
I'm a linux newbie here.. just downloaded the Wine pacakge for Ubuntu and
I'm surprised at the number of Windows apps that are functional under Wine.
However, the performace is a bit lacking, especially in games though still
acceptable. (I'm getting maybe 75% the framerate I'm used to.)
I've noticed that the version of Wine I'm using for Ubuntu is specifically
compiled for i386 systems; I'm running an i686 kernel (on a 2.8Ghz Celeron)
now and I'm wondering if I'll get better performance if I download the
source and compile an i686 version of Wine myself? Thanks.
