Re: Run Game In Separate X Server?

["Cloudef" <wineforum-user@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I assume you use nvidia, it opens it in :2
change :2 to something else if you want it somewhere else,
or heck make it even a command line option


Code:

#!/bin/sh
# cd to dir && run in wine in another X Display

if [ ! "$1" ]; then
	echo "Usage : xwine [gameDir] [exe]"
	exit
fi
if [ ! "$2" ]; then
	echo "Usage : xwine [gameDir] [exe]"
	exit
fi

X :2 -ac -terminate & nvidia-settings --load-config-only
sleep 10
DISPLAY=:2
cd "$1"
wine "$2" $3




1. create new file, name it xwine
2. copy that to that file
3. chmod +x 
4. sudo mv xwine /usr/bin/
5. xwine "/path/to/game/dir" "executable"

Not tested, but should work.
