Are you running the game inside a composite window manager? If so try disabling.

One problem though, when I minimize the game and I maximize it, sometimes I can just keep playing happily but sometimes thats not the case. I minimize it, maximize it again and the FPS drops to about 10-20fps (anywhere). As you might know, this is VERY annoying, I've tried changing loads of settings in-game with no help.

I haven't explored EVERY possiblity, but no one can. :p Has anyone had any similar problems? Also, I can't play WoW with V-Sync unless the game is in full-screen mode, windowed only works without V-Sync. I really want to sort this problem out as I minimize the game quite a lot! Running the game with an emulated window doesn't help either. It happens in GNOME and in KDE 4.2 so my DE is not the issue. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
