Maybe, but it is a small point badly made. I never said that the problem was 
limited to wine but I did mention wine in my post and as he himself said "My 
header shows this is the Wine newsgroup". Also when Xgl is turned on wine (for 
*my* pruposes at least) is almost unusable, so a wine newsgroup is *partially* 
relevant.

That is a much better reply. I have some other things taking my time though so 
it can wait for now. I hope it's not a "feature" of Xgl though as I'd like that 
3d desktop back sometime.
