Dom3 runs slow on Linux
Hello. I just tried to install Dominions 3 on my new Debian system, and it works fine, except very slowly. Did I miss something in configuration? The hardware should be fine, because when I had Windows installed on this machine, the game worked perfectly. Latest patch is already installed.
Thanks for any help in advance.

Re: Dom3 runs slow on Linux
Which video card do you have?
Which driver and version?
What about other 3D apps, how are they running? |

Re: Dom3 runs slow on Linux
Dom3 runs beautifully on Ubuntu for me (and indeed is written on Linux), so it certainly should be possible to get it working smoothly.

Re: Dom3 runs slow on Linux
I run it smooth as silk in Fedora 10. You've got to make sure you have right drivers installed of course, but that applies to windows as well.

Re: Dom3 runs slow on Linux
Works perfectly for me on Gentoo on a not-very-fast laptop with integrated Intel Graphics. So, as the posters above say, it is probably drivers.

Re: Dom3 runs slow on Linux
lspci doesn't need to be part of the standard tools, I think.
Festin, run
Code:
glxinfo | grep render
in a Terminal.
Does it tell you that you are using "direct rendering", yes or no? |
