I am finding that with one particular windows application running under wine the graphics are incredibly slow. My question is: Is this something to do with wine that I just have to live with, or could it be connected to other things on my system, such as the xserver?
The app in question is scribe, a database manager for historians created in filemaker pro v.8. None of the problems I am having with it occur when I use the wine/reactos notepad (the only other wine application I could locate easily that involves typing). The problems are: 1. Typed text gets to the screen pretty slowly - 200 characters per second or so. However pasted text appears more or less instantly. 2. Windows are drawn very slowly - which is pretty annoying because scribe opens and shuts a lot of windows. 3. when scribe starts, a considerable part of the screen (both inside and outside the application windows) ends up covered in black rectangles. These disappear when something is dragged over them or a button underneath them is clicked. 4. There is a slowdown in opengl which persists even when scribe and all wine-related processes have terminated. Before starting scribe glxgears will clock around 960 fps, whereas afterwards it will only clock up 750 fps or so. I am using the following versions of things: x11-base/xorg-x11-6.8.99.15-r4 app-emulation/wine-0.9.8-r1 x11-drivers/ati-drivers-8.22.5 Thanks Robert -- Robert Persson [EMAIL PROTECTED] YahooMessenger:ireneshusband Conspiracy Bears: Once upon a time there were lots of conspiracy bears... -- Robert Persson [EMAIL PROTECTED] YahooMessenger:ireneshusband Conspiracy Bears: Once upon a time there were lots of conspiracy bears... -- [email protected] mailing list
