    In PlayOnLinux Configure, you can click the Wine Tab and then click Control Panel But I think most of the typical settings are not there in Wine. You can Run a Command Prompt from the Wine Tab as well. Try opening Command Prompt and type Sysedit It might not do anything...

    Here are some interesting tips, not sure if it will work in Wine, but worth a try. Also, it doesn't hurt to set Windows to 98 or Me or 2000 as a test Make sure the 3D hardware acceleration is turned all the way up. 1) Right-click on the My Computer icon on the desktop and select Properties. 2)...

    Soldier of Fortune OpenGL error

    this game is old enough you should be able to play in a VM, but definitely research Windows OpenGL problems. I've seen problems in Windows for some games in PlayOnLinux and the fix for Windows fixed my game.

    Do you have another computer or older laptop lying around you could try it on? Maybe downgrading your Opensource drivers might do it, but I would hate for you to do that. Also do some research with AMD and Windows OpenGL for Soldier of Fortune. You might find some tips we can try on the game...

    Soldier of Fortune OpenGL error

    wow very nice screenshots! Try downloading the gallium nine wine version and try that as well. I think you confirmed it... this game just won't run on your AMD chip. I don't know exactly why, but it just won't.

    Soldier of Fortune OpenGL error

    Oh I totally forgot, you are using Wine alone. Wait until tomorrow and then follow my manual installation guide. The thing with Wine is if you use a wineprefix for several games and install different dependencies (overrides) it can break other games. I still think this is a driver issue, but...

    Atari's New Console

    Its strange to me as well because almost all of the atari/MS DOS/arcade games are available online for free at archive.org So why would I want a console with a bunch of games I can play already? I guess if Steam and native Linux games can run on it, that would be nice as well, but SteamBox...

    Atari's New Console

    Looks like Steambox has a competitor! Ataribox is a new gaming console by Atari and is built with Linux and Steam compatibility. http://mailchi.mp/ataribox/first-look-ataribox-design-36241?e=316bc4d53e If Steambox isn't successful why would Atari attempt the same business model?

    Soldier of Fortune OpenGL error

    Wow, that is a big log! There are a bunch of GL related errors and pixel errors. There is definitely something wrong. At this point it may be better to post on a Gallium Nine forum or even Reddit to see if anyone with a similar AMD card has the same problems. Since the game is free, they can...
