    Since its an integrated AMD graphics processor, you never know what results you will get with Wine, OpenGL and performance. I always recommend a desktop with a GeForce video card and Nvidia drivers, but you probably have a laptop. I got this same error with my GeForce 7600 because its tool old...

    Because its still Wine's recommended "stable" version At lest until 1.8 is stable And because it runs just fine. I try to use stable versions for simplicity, but Diety runs on 1.7.55-staging as well.

    Age Of Wushu Guide

    Every time I have installed PlayOnLinux in a fresh Mint installation, I get a warning that "xterm" needs to be installed. not sure why, but after installing it, everything works fine. I suggest using a 32-bit version of Wine and a 32-bit virtual drive. I'm not even sure if Age of Wushu is...

    I'm avoiding 64-bit virtual drives until I really have time to test it or more reports of success appear. i've always had good results with 32-bit.

    PlayOnLinux will error about xterm when I just installed a fresh copy of Mint. I use Synaptics Package Manager to install xterm. Microsoft Fonts are installed automatically by PlayOnLinux when you setup your first virtual drive. Winetricks is good, but PlayOnLinux goes a step further...

    Why choosing Mint over (*)Ubuntu

    Sounds like Manjaro is the "mint" of Arch I definitely use Cinnamon, if there is a performance issue I haven't noticed at all. I've recently seen a performance problem with Cinnamon after updating to Nvidia 346 & 352 drivers. I never had this problem previously, so I'm hoping Mint developers...

    Stuck on "please wait while the virtual drive is being created"

    Yes, Wine is a pre-requisite because the "default" Wine and "default" virtual drive refers to the installed Wine. Just go ahead and install Wine. If you have to, remove PlayOnLinux and install it again. Make sure to download PlayOnLinux 4.2.9 from their website download page...

    blue estate the game...

    Steam shows that Blue Estate supports Direct X 9, so it "should" run When you launch the game first time, what tries to install? Visual C+? Direct X? Dotnet? Are you able to play any other games in PlayOnLinux? Also, make sure you have 32-bit libraries installed on your Distro, unless of...

    rage... mouse wrapper issue

    Thanks for posting your solutions! You may want to try the new Wine 1.8 versions to see if some of these issues are fixed. For some reason I don't remember having this problem in Rage... :( With AAA games there always seems to be some minor bugs in Wine, but they end up playing nicely. I've...

    Why choosing Mint over (*)Ubuntu

    I've heard good and bad sides to rolling releases. It sounds really nice to have everything updated to the next release automatically, but some times packages can break something. New Linux Gamers would have a lot of problems trying to resolve this. To be honest, when something breaks and I...

    oh, I had no idea you were in SteamOS. This is new ground you are treading... I am not familiar with the changes to Debian Valve has made. I have yet to read a tutorial on how to install Wine, PlayOnLinux and games in SteamOS. A few things are required for Linux in general: Proprietary...

    Need advice Distro needed, no gaming needed.

    I'm convinced the Windows 7 is using encryption automatically. I've experienced many permissions problems and sharing drive problems in the past. I've also noticed my Fedora server is automatically encrypting drives. I have a backup drive that is hot-swappable SATA and I can't access the files...

    I noticed Jade Empire was free on Origin too... I already have it on GOG Age of Wushu is much better and open world. Jade Empire is cool, but has some horrible game decision like the stupid flying minigame.
