Hi everyone,
I just wiped XP off my old Dell D610 and loaded Ubuntu 10.10... it runs like a brand new machine! (If if weren't for compatibility issues I would do the same to my netbook right away!)
Anyway to test out Wine I installed IL-2 1946, patched up to 4.10m.
With a little tweaking it is running like a dream, save one minor issues.
Occasionally the program hiccups with what looks like a slowdown in fps and then freezes solid... forcing me to power off the lappy to restart. It's a minor annoyance but I wanted to check and see if anyone else has experienced and resolved this. Off the top of my head I suspect it has something to do with my ATI drivers in Ubuntu.
Could be a heat related problem. Can you monitor the temperatures of
the CPU/GPU and see if they are climbing and hit the shut off value?
Also, please update to the development 1.3.16 version. There have
litterally been thousands of fixes since the release of 1.2.2.
