My primary radeon box is amd64 and I haven't tried the patches to get wine up and running. I've heard that WoW will run under wine on linux now though. I have not had anyone tell me if it runs under FreeBSD as well though. However, the features supported by the driver are pretty much the same, so I would say it is worth a shot. robert. -- Robert Noland <rnoland(a)FreeBSD.org> FreeBSD _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports(a)freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscribe(a)freebsd.org"

The only issues so far were I had to fetch some distfiles manually baecause the patch tries to fetch files from ftp://ftp.freedesktop.org/pub/mesa/7.6.1.rc2/ that actually are in ftp://ftp.freedesktop.org/pub/mesa/7.6.1/ , and glxgears says: IRQ's not enabled, falling back to busy waits: 2 0 (but still runs, it reports some 2160 fps.)

I can confirm that - I used to run WoW in WINE on the fglrx drivers without a hitch. This was about 4 years ago on an All-in-Wonder 9600. I'd hope they haven't regressed that badly. ;) -- Richard Kolkovich sarumont(a)sigil.org PGP Key: 0x9E54EF59 (http://pgp.mit.edu)

I primarily only tells how fast you can swap buffers. At any rate, that does seem a tiny bit low, I normally turn around 2200 - 2300 on my 4650 w/c2d. I think if you try with some GL games, you will find it quite adequate. robert. > Using a HD4890 on an core i7-920. I would expect the FPS going up to > around 20,000?
