> I've been using Linux Ubuntu for a few days, but I already love it :) However, when I'm running windows games under wine, I get less than 10fps, while under windows they work really fast. I have installed latest Nvidia drivers from ubuntu repositories and Direct X 9c under wine (yes, dxdiag works, and it passes all the tests). I have also seen on youtube, that many people don't have any problems with running those games under ubuntu. Is there any solution for this problem?

> Half-LIfe 2 (steam) - only 5-7 fps
> GTA San Andreas - when many NPC's appear on screen it's getting laggy. When I turn my back to NPC's it's fine again.
