Would this make a difference? Can you even run Wine over a VNC??...SNIPPED... Not really. Wine needs OpenGL. However, it will work with VirtualGL or xf4vnc which supports OpenGL calls, but it's slow, unless you use the option where your local video card does the rendering and sends the desktop as a video stream, but even that's slow because of all the desktop captures going on. I thought they were supposed to accelerate the video capture using the recent, as of at least most video cards support it, GLX_texture_from_pixmap, but anyway, maybe it works better now. I haven't tried it in ages. I'm rambling. This reference is more up to date. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VirtualGL
