Wine and AMD free graphic drivers

[alex6]

Hi,

I'm currently using an AMD graphic card and I was running game without having problems with proprietary drivers.
But now I'm forced to use free drivers because proprietary drivers stopped handling my card.

Since I switched to free drivers, I really have a performance reduction and some cinematics can't be seen at all.
For example Anno 1404 was working really fine but now, even the basic 2D menu can't be seen normally (no background image, no cinematics....)

Do you have any ideas/tips of how to configure wine/xorg/the kernel to have good performances ? I heard it was possible to have good performances with the recent AMD free drivers.

I'm currently using gentoo with kernel 3.7.10

Thanks for your reply.

It seems the problem come from the fact my graphic card is not detected by wine.

fixme:d3d_caps:wined3d_guess_card_vendor Received unrecognized GL_VENDOR "X.Org". Returning HW_VENDOR_NVIDIA.
fixme:d3d_caps:select_card_nvidia_mesa Card selection not handled for Mesa Nouveau driver

I'm not using a nvidia card, and I'm not using "nouveau" driver...

On this page http://wiki.winehq.org/UsefulRegistryKeys
I saw there is a registry key for this :
VideoPciVendorID

How can I set this key (and can this fix the problem)?
lspci -n shows a lot of results...(like 20 lines)

[dimesio]

Try lspci -nn for more information. Follow the instructions in the wiki for adding keys.

Found which id was assigned to VGA card by using lspci -vn
Added to wine registry, my card is still not detected and wine still try to look for a nvidia driver...

What does

Code: Select all

glxinfo | grep version

return?

[alex6]

server glx version string: 1.4
client glx version string: 1.4
GLX version: 1.4
OpenGL version string: 3.0 Mesa 9.0.1
OpenGL shading language version string: 1.30

Try reinstalling the game to a clean wineprefix.

deleting .wine didn't solved the problem...

BUT

Problem is solved in 1.4.1 and 1.5.26

but no way to get sound...ok it's another problem
