great fps with wine
I had the windows version of tmw installed already and while running ubuntu I thought that I might as well try it with wine.
much to my surprise I got about about 120 fps running the windows version through wine in ubuntu compared to about 80 with native linux version in ubuntu.
anyone got an idea why it is so?
anyone care to replicate it?

It's remarkable that the Windows version would run smoother on Linux than the native Linux version. It'd be good to look into why this happens, and to get more benchmarks like this.
You can enable/disable OpenGL by setting "opengl" to 1 or 0 in your config.xml. In the CVS version it is now possible to use the OpenGL checkbox in the setup screen. On Linux you'll have to remember to pass --with-opengl to configure to build in OpenGL support. I think we'll have this as default from 0.0.17, then you could still do --without-opengl for disableing it.

oh my
I switched to the 686-optimized kernel and now I got about ~150fps with wine.
and ~75-80fps in native client.
is there some kind of frame rate limiter that gets broken in wine?
or is this just a freak of nature?
